In truth, any opportunity to see the film on the big screen is welcome.

A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.

Just intense enough to provide a much-needed diversion, just lightweight enough to make you forget about it soon after it’s over. It’s not exactly “good,” per se, but it does what it sets out to do in terms of putting us on edge, which makes it … successful?

One of the best movies of the year! Incredible from the beginning to the end.

It seems like everywhere you turn there's some horror movie that's trying to be a throwback to the golden age of eighties slashers. However, none that I've come across have perfectly captured the magic that can be found within a VHS of something like BLOOD RAGE or ROCKTOBER BLOOD. Some have come close (CLUB DREAD), and others have failed miserably. So which category does THE GREENSKEEPER fall under?Allen is the assistant greens keeper at a lush country club, which his mother and stepfather/ex-uncle own. Some snobby young adults convince him to let them in after the place is closed for a little party. However, someone wearing a greens keeper's outfit begins picking them off in various creative and gruesome ways. Is it Allen, who's had enough with the snobs that tease him? Is it Otis, the head greens keeper who's a little loopy? Or is it Allen's father, back from the dead?The only thing that saved THE SLEEPER from being complete bottom of the barrel trash was the kills, which really brought be back to the methods of murder in classic late twentieth-century slashers. The same almost applies for THE GREENSKEEPER. Most of the kills are reserved for the last half-hour or so, and they are SUPERB. They're gory, funny, and creative, with each utilizing the golf-theme to a tee (pun not intended). Nails are put in one of those automatic tennis ball shooters, tees are forced through someone's forehead, some gets beaten to death with a nine-iron (I think), and you know those golf ball washers? A DIFFERENT kind of balls is put in it. Ouch.However, some of the characters in THE GREENSKEEPER are likable, including Allen, Otis, and even Allen's stoner friend. You get a sense that these are real people and they come across as very likable. The snobs that get in, however, you want to see die immediately. This is where it fails as an eighties throwback. Typically in eighties movies, we follow the group for most of the time. Here, most of the time is spent on Allen, and him getting most of the attention causes the movie to drag a tad.However, I loved the killer's disguise, the ridiculous reveal of the killer (as well as his death), the motive, etc. There are some intentionally funny moments during the first hour or so, but as a whole, it felt very blah before the kills began. It was a bit of a chore to sit through, but the brilliant deaths made up for it.Overall, I liked it. It's nothing special, but it's a decently fun watch if you want to get your slasher kicks. It's far from a perfect slasher, but it's really not that bad as far as entertainment goes.Don't go in expecting a new classic, but you could certainly do worse.

"The Greenskeeper" is one of those movies that gets better with repeat viewings (and lots of beer). It doesn't take itself too seriously and has a nice bit of humor and gore. While a tad slow at first the movie really takes off in the 2nd and 3rd act when the Greenskeeper starts his spree. I could see Hollywood re-making a movie like this with more money and some star wattage. The setting (Country Club) was clever and the methods by which the overprivileged characters were killed were inventive. The cover box was deceptive as it was too straight up horror looking when the movie really plays more like a horror/comedy. Imagine if a poorman's "Clerks" met "The Burning". Not a great movie by any standard but definitely worth a rental or low price purchase.

After Dentist, Ice-Cream Man, plumber, repairman and so on, at last even a greenskeeper get the spotlight as slasher killer number 600 and so in this so bad and so stupid is fun variation on the slasher theme. It is worth a rental to get a few laughs for the really bad jokes and the bad special effects that are inside.

I love John Rocker...I have loved every game he has pitched, and now every movie he has been in. No other American represents the intensity and love for horror that Rocker displays in this movie. I am not a big fan of horror movies....my fancy is more towards the comedies, but this movie just drew me in. The character development and the plot seem to intertwine to create one of the best shocking movies of the year. I was a skeptic I admit since I am from Atlanta and this movie was taped and filmed here. But this should not be a problem as this film makes itself available to all....and in a very shocking and horrific way. The ending will shock everyone that sees it and I hope people will watch it over and over again in order to truely understand what the meaning of this movie is. I rate it a 9 out of 10 and a MUST see. Especially among Atlantians!
