After a hard day of volleyball at the beach, a teen whose parents are away decides to have a slumber party with her girlfriends.
By now the 90’s had rolled in and peoples tastes were changing, but that didn’t stop the series carrying on.
If you’ve seen the previous two films in the series then you are now more than familiar with the formula of these films, but that doesn’t make it any less entertaining.
It has all the elements you’ve come to expect from a b-movie series but one thing it definitely has going for it is that it’s absolutely miles better than it’s predecessor as it sticks to a straight forward plot, well what little there is of one, and the acting is also much better.
With the film going back to a slasher formula it goes back to it’s humorous roots, the dialogue has some serious laugh out loud moments and but admittedly the victims themselves are a bit docile but that’s just an extra topping of the cheese-fest of this film is and it doesn’t get you frustrated at what they’re doing for once.
The killer himself is also back to being a bad-ass and gives us some awesome and highly gory death scenes, you get the sense he’s truly insane and driven to finish each victim off and admittedly you do start rooting for him a little bit.
If you like your movies trashy, bloody and silly then you’re in for a treat.
