Another slasher film but with a different twist, one I thought was rather clever. The killer in this one targets a certain group and kills them.
It is set in the town of Cherry Falls where teenagers are being killed and at first the parents don't know why. As the movie progresses you learn some vital info about the town's history and why the kids are being killed now.
The killer wears black and has long hair, that is all you really see of the killer for most of the movie. The movie is more a black horror comedy and if you take it that way it is pretty good. They take the idea of most slashers, that if you drink or have sex you are going to die and flip it. The kids targeted in this town are the virgins.
This of course upsets the parents, who have a meeting. The funniest line there is one parents asks "what are we supposed to do, tell our kids to have sex?" Some of the kids overhear this meeting and decide to have a sex party, an orgy if you will, so they won't be killed.
As the Sheriff investigates the crimes, his virgin daughter does the same and uncovers some disturbing secrets about the town and the people she thought she knew and trusted. THe cast overall does a fairly good job, murphy is believable and has some good actors as her friends in the movie. There are some over the top moments but the movie was not bad if you take it as a black comedy in the vein of say Donnie Darko.
As the daughter continues to discover the towns secret she must also help catch the killer before she and her friends have to lose their virginity. There is a slight twist at the end as she races against the clock for a certain night and time.
Not the best movie but if you see it on tv or have a chance to rent it, go for it, if for nothing else it had a intersting idea with killing virgins.
