My Bloody Valentine

My Bloody Valentine is a TV production drowning in bloody brutality and using 3D effects surprisingly scarcely and unoriginally. Due to the screenwriter’s laziness (the only thing he’s able to do is conceal the killer’s identity), it’s probably the most retarded slasher flick in a long while. The only thing suggesting we’re no longer in the 1980s but in the world of contemporary cinema is the more modern pumps on the feet of one naked blonde, who gets murdered early on. (24/04/2009)

Schematic and average slasher without any spark or ideas. Fortunately, the angry miner is a fairly charismatic character and whenever he and his pickaxe enter the scene, the viewer’s mood gauge moves from I’m-bored to I’m-entertained, but those moments are brief. And when the film tries to surprise with the oldest and most clichéd stuff you can imagine, all with a very serious face, you wonder whether the screenwriter hadn’t been sleeping for the last twenty years. And yet, My Bloody Valentine is a little bit better than the sterile remake of Friday the 13th. (28/04/2009)

"Bloody Valentine" has problems with the logic of some scenes, which ultimately also affects the punchline of the entire movie, which stumbles considerably at times. That's a shame. Maybe it would have benefited from fewer minutes and less effort to dazzle with interesting, not so traditional scenes that are, however, overly stretched. This inconsistency ultimately leads me to give it a 50%. (25/02/2014)
