Bon film !

I'll admit that I originally decided to watch "Girls Gone Dead" because Sal and Beetlejuice of The Howard Stern Show fame are in it, and I've been BIG FAN of the show and especially Beet since adolescence. For what it is, this movie is actually pretty well done, and of course, entertaining. The cast is outrageous, and in addition to the Stern favorites mentioned above, professional wrestler Jerry Lawler and the legendary Ron Jeremey are both in it as well. A group of girls get together to spend spring break at one of their parents' summer home, and proceed to get wasted, meet a group of guys, run into a stalker ex, and get killed off one by one. The gore is plentiful, with the slayings at the mansion where the massive spring break filming party is taking place being among the best. The movie is also propelled along by the massive amount of eye candy, with almost every scene featuring girls in swimwear or topless. The reveal of the killer, the motive, and the overall blatant anti-religious message is pretty humorous as well. Of course, this is no masterpiece of cinema, but it isn't trying to be. I like that while never taking itself seriously, it still comes off as a watchable homage to the golden age of slasher flicks. Throw this one on with a group of friends, it's a lot of fun.

The movie is about under-age adults partying, and stuff, until a monk with a war-hammer decides to kill them for a religious thing from worshiping God. This movie was pretty fun to watch, sure the acting is not that good, but like I said, in slasher movies, when you're playing as person that gets killed, you don't have to act, only the killer has to act the role, and I got to say, the killer was a pretty intense killer. The film is really entertaining to watch, the script was good, the plot was okay, but it's still a fun movie to watch, oh if one of you are Christians, you may not want to watch this movie, because the Christians in this movie are insane, and the movie sometimes makes fun of them, so yeah if you are Christians, you might get offended by this movie, but if you love fun slasher movies, this is the movie for you.

I watched this to see how immoral and degrading it would make me feel. Just so I could write a review on how awe full it was. I've seen garbage pale kids, I've seen baby geniuses, I've seen the room, but this may be the worst film I have ever seen. Let's take a look at it. The moral of the film is, women are whores and will do anything for money, that's what the film tells you. Films like this make me question if I ever would even want a girlfriend. This is like the piranha films, it's just girls gone wild with a little violence thrown in. All the women are portrayed as dumb and loose, it makes me sick. The nudity is on par with the piranha films, every women in the film gets naked sort of thing. The acting is just awe full, the characters are something you'd see in a GGW video. The guys are douche bags, it's just a sick movie. This is the SH-t drizzling out of cinemas rear. I feel like garbage right now, I need to go watch Predator to make my self feel better. My morality was raped by this film. Teenage boys will like this film, even though I am a teenager but feel like I am 30, I hate this trash with all of my soul. So at the end of the day, this film is the worst I have ever seen, mainly because of....well everything. Only degenerate men would like this.

Originally I purchased this DVD after hearing about it on the Howard Stern show. I have been a huge fan of Beetlejuice for over a decade and figured.. why not? Little did I know... Girls Gone Dead was an amazing film and exactly what is MISSING from movies today. As an 80s kid growing up, I loved the old silly horror/comedy movies. Slasher flicks with T & A that never took themselves too seriously. This is exactly what I found with Girls Gone Dead. The story is fun, the girls are beautiful (and topless often), and what an interesting cast! Beetlejuice, Ron Jeremy, and WWE wrestling legend Jerry "The King" Lawler?! The film's lead and drop dead gorgeous (no pun intended) Katie Peterson did a fantastic job with the role. I swear I laughed a lot and had no idea who was doing the killing. Check out this movie! What beats hot girls, bloody gruesome killing, hot girls (again), and BEETLEJUICE! My favorite film of 2012.

What possessed me to rent this flick?I'm not per-say a T&A fan nor do I dig the current trough of contemporary,no-budget comedy/thrillers that pop-up on Thriller channel (say like "Andre the Butcher"-utter dreck which also features the ubiquitous Ron Jeremy).Or maybe it was Howard Stern regulars Beetlejuice and Sal the Stockbroker,a little but not really. Actually it was one-time scream queen Linnea Quigley that drew me to this,being a loooooong time fan of hers. She barely makes a cameo but it's nice to see her having a good time with her sparse material (playing a dive-Tiki bar owner with a fake Austrailian accent).I thought I would turn the disc off at that point,but I was pleasantly surprised. The plot's pretty slasher-flick formula stuff.A straight-laced Christian girl joins her much more rowdy gal pals on a jaunt to a sparsely-populated Daytona for spring break.All the while,the hot-to-trot girls a stalked by a monk-like serial killer with a cherubic mask(a reference to "Valentine" maybe?). Even someone with Beetlejuice's intelligence can figure out the killer's identity,even the weak plot twist at the end(a reference to "Scream 3" maybe?).But what matters is that you'll have fun getting there due to some truly inspired comic timing.Could this have been a better movie? Sure,with 60 x's the budget....but don't let that detract you,believe me,I've seen worse. Like I said,a bigger budget would've improved this and the performances,while not Oscar caliber,are at least tolerable.The lead actress Katie Peterson is attractive and likable and the tantalizing Stewart and Whitford are hilariously bitchy.Other notables include ex-WWE great Jerry Lawlor as the goony sheriff,and the aforementioned Sal the Stockbroker,Beetlejuice,and as himself,Ron Jeremy,who curses aloud that he won't get his paycheck after the mayhem starts. So rent this,get some brews,invite your frat bros to your dorm room and have a blast. I guarantee this'll put a smile on your face and it's 500x's better than "Piranha 2DD",which is more deserving of a 3.6% rating(no,actually lower)than "Girls Gone Dead".

Overall I thought this was a funny, horror flick with some awesome effects. Some of the acting left a bit to be desired. The bartender was hysterical and there were a lot of the other characters that over acted. The director did a good job blocking and maintaining flow of the characters and story. I thought the story was well written, It was kind of Scream, meets Carrie meets a sorority flick. I look forward to more features like this. I also love that it was set in the great state of Florida!! The end scene however was classic!! I knew almost from the beginning that the mother must be the culprit.

Girls Gone Dead is a straight up 80's style slasher movie but with a more modern feel to it. Lots of dimwitted hot chicks taking off their tops and doing all the wonderful things that get young sluts killed in horror. The movie is paced very quickly and never leaves you feeling bored and waiting for something to happen. The chemistry between the girls is a big plus. They play well off each other and the dialog between them feels very natural and will make you chuckle multiple times. Jerry "The King" Lawler surprised me in his role as the Sheriff. Most of the male actors were all great at playing smarmy douche bags that you want to see meet a brutal demise. Video quality is AMAZING for a DVD only release looking as good if not better than most horror blu-rays out now. If you want a fun horror movie to throw on with some buddies Girls Gone Dead will put a smile on all your faces.
