The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.
This story has more twists and turns than a second-rate soap opera.
A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.
When i first saw this i saw it with my friend on Austar and thought it was good for a low budget horror flick, with popular actress Anna Farris best known for her roles as Cindy Campbell in Scary Movie 1,2 and 3. I have recently bought this on DVD and thought it was excellent. I agree with others this show is better than expected. 9 out of 10
Based on that old urban legend, this low-budget loser features a hook-handed killer who stuck it to a man and woman on Valentine's Day getting it on at Lover's Lane. 13 years later, his escape from the state mental hospital coincides with the murders of a bunch of obnoxious high school kids played by a hand picked cast of no-talent nobodies who resemble your favorite teen dream stars of today!See the Mena Suvari knock-off who keeps her American BEAUTY-style cheerleading uniform on for the entire movie before taking a hook to the most private of personal areas. Or Tara Reid telling Freddie Prinze, Jr. to do her or "I'll kill your f@#!@t ass!" before both get their necks slashed. And there's the Nick Carter clone with a weird mom who sometimes wears a wig and punches out a drunken teen tramp Parker Posey knock-off at a bowling alley.The killer is kept hidden in the shadows for the most part and writes scary messages like "Prison food sucks" (??) in blood on a wall. Written directly on the video is a warning about "Nudity, Graphic Violence, Strong Sexual Content and Adult Language," which adds up to a bunch of offscreen deaths and two topless scenes that are too dark to see. At least Friday THE 13TH and other 80s slasher movies didn't skimp on our basic human need for gore, nudity and action.The ridiculous ending, however, is hilarious, if you can wait that long. This was made around the Seattle area.
This movie was pretty good for a low buget film. If you liked Scream or I Know What You Did Last Summer you'll probably like this one. The story line is somewhat similar. The acting is pretty good. There are even a couple of familiar faces. The girl from Scary Movie is in it, among others. (She shot this movie just before Scary Movie). Anyway, if you're in the mood for a horror movie Lovers' Lane is worth watching.
Idiots could write it off as just a low budget slasher but there is so much going on in this movie under the surface that it takes someone with an IQ over 100 to "get it". Yeah, production values could be better, (some of the sound is inaudible and visuals dark), but the acting is good, it moves pretty fast and there's enough tits and action to keep you going. I hope it comes out on DVD. Enough said.
