MY REVIEW

I remember watching the original My Bloody Valentine in junior high back in Texas at a slumber party. I loved it so much! It's likely one of the reasons that I love horror movies so much as an adult!

It's okay. Not good, just okay.

What I DID LIKE about this movie:

• Bountifulness of blood, brutality and gore! What every true horror movie fan craves!
• It's a lovely and entertaining collection of cliches that keep you tense until the last scene. Despite the predictable nature, I was deeply appreciative but still aware that it was full of the general horror movie staples.

What I DID NOT LIKE about this movie:

• Ineffective and weak dialog.
• I think the most ineffective piece were the 3-D effects. 
• It was a lot of fun  but still had a silly and manipulative plot.

On a more personal note..... Little homage to my baby boy, 9 month old Boomer. He's a little ginger sweetheart and I'm glad we added him to the fold!
