There is just so much movie here. For some it may be too much. But in the same secretly sarcastic way most telemarketers say the phrase, the title of this one is particularly apt.

... View MoreIt is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties.

... View MoreI enjoyed this movie. In short, it is a somewhat comedic horror film of a group of college-age kids who break into a mountain cabin for a weekend of skiing fun, only to run into someone intent on killing them. Its important to understand that the movie is fairly low budget; not micro-budget, but certainly not blockbuster funding. So expect hammy acting, not really compelling dialog, a thin plot, etc. However, I can be fully satisfied by a movie if it meets certain attributes, such as having been filmed in a locale appealing to me. This movie was filmed in snowy winter and on a skiing mountain, one of my passions, so that let's me forgive the underwhelming aspects of the film and just sit back and enjoy a light hearted film.
... View MoreA group of snowboarders take up lodging at closed ski resort Rocky Summit, have their hands full with a psychopathic skier. It seems this skier has a major problem with snowboarders and it may or may not have something to do with the accidental death of a little girl..who died thanks to drunken snowboarders.Lots of "dude-speak" with this cast of stereotypical clichéd characters(especially Billy O'Sullivan's Skyler who, if he didn't look human, would pass for a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle)who love to drink and party. You have Scott Weinger as the hunky Cole, being led around like a puppy by the manipulative hottie bitch Kimberly(Lindsey McKeon, playing the kind of blonde product of wealth you just want to see die horribly). You have Holly Towne as the horny Robyn ready for just about anyone to mount her, Brad Hawkins as Christophe, a young supposed Frenchman with a direct link to the dead girl of legend at the slopes, Juleah Weikel as Pike, who is believed lesbian but is actually head-over-heels for Cole & Peter Riggs as a star of snowboarding who loves the weed. The locals around the lodge dislike snowboarders and there's a beautiful chick named Shelly(Candace Moon)who likes to ski in the nude.Okay slasher, could've been better, could've been worse. Somewhat more entertaining than the usual modern slashers of it's ilk. The film is helped a great deal by it's setting and there are quite a few bloody, gory bits to keep fans of the genre satisfied. The title of the film is a term to describe a snowboarder.
... View MoreWriting this, I'm laughing just thinking about the movie which I'm about to review. Shredder is filled with stereotypes, horrible acting, a bad plot, ridiculous twists, bad kills, and a hideous script and I loved every minute of it! The movie is so dumb and strange that it's hard not to like it. This is what direct-to-video horror should be likemoronic and fun! While other direct-to-video movies like 2001 Maniacs are amazing films and subtly use their tongue-in-cheek humor, Shredder takes a much different approach; it's crap, and it knows it's crap.The acting in Shredder is so atrocious that it's actually a joy to watch, although the lesbian girl wasn't too bad and the male lead was efficient. The kills in the movie are probably its best feature; each kill is absurd, twisted, and hilarious. During her death, one girl exclaims to her boyfriend, "I never loved you!" Another girl strangles to death on her scarf while hanging off a ski lift. The effects look so fake that they're laughable.Extreme kudos to whoever put together this movieit's a masterpiece of moronic, preposterous, comedic, direct-to-video horror that is not to be missed. Shredder is sure to go down as a classic that is stupid and, at the same time, somehow enjoyable. See this with your friends; it's sure to send you rolling on the floor laughing.
... View MoreThis movie is so cheap and stupid but funny. The thing i liked about this movie was that it was set in a cold snowy place where i've never seen a slasher horror set before, but other then that its crap!!!The plot is simple and stupid and has no originality. Its not scary, has bad acting and bull death scenes but i loved to laugh at it nether the less and it did entertain.if i was you i wouldn't buy it on DVD its a complete waste of money i only got it on DVD because it got it from a pound shop.Well i give it a fair 4 out of 10 because of funny bits and the sex scenes
