Synopsis

Bloodthirsty fans of the classic slashers of yesteryear should be sated by MY BLOODY VALENTINE (2009), a gory trip that's not just a remake but a retro-amalgam of the greatest hits from the 1970s, '80s, and '90s. The HALLOWEEN-influenced, eerily Canadian 1981 original holds a modest place in many horror hearts despite its notoriously trimmed violence. But even those who haven’t seen it will get the feeling that this VALENTINE sports an amplified blood-and-guts factor, one that brings with it the distinctly outlandish brutality and hulking-masked-killer archetype of a FRIDAY THE 13th instalment combined with the polished chase scenes of post-SCREAM teen horror.


As if this gore-ucopia didn’t have enough spices already, its premise and structure are also indebted to such cheeky mystery-slashers as HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME and APRIL FOOL’S DAY. A decade after traumatized miner Harry Warden goes on a pickaxe massacre, guilt-stricken Tom (Jensen Ackles) returns to his quaint hometown only to find that a string of similar murders has started up. With Warden believed to be long dead, Sheriff Axel casts suspicion on Tom. It seems his old flame, Sarah, is the only one who truly believes he’s innocent. The movie’s horror-expert filmmakers imbue VALENTINE with the reliably enjoyable entertainment-trumps-logic of slasher films, especially in the way everyone in town--including the police--seems way more interested in proving or disproving Harry Warden’s involvement than actually stopping the in-progress murder spree. Similarly, beloved genre vet Tom Atkins (NIGHT OF THE CREEPS) is on hand to deliver a coolly understated retired-cop performance. But peppered in are some nifty subliminal visual flourishes and at least one off-the-wall sequence (think fully naked, fleeing little people, and a box-spring-as-cage). The 3-D version is uncommonly well-integrated, subjecting viewers not only to hair-raising projectiles, but an effective immersion into the mise-en-scene.

2.0 out of 5 stars 3D effect is terrible, 10 Jun 2010
By A. Perratt "Dilligaf" (Falkirk, Scotland) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: My Bloody Valentine 3D [DVD] [2008] (DVD)
I bought this specifically for the 3D, as I've never watched a 3D film before, and I was extremely disappointed. The 2 pairs of glasses that come with this I gave to my boys and I bought 3D GLASSES - GREEN/MAGENTA SUITABLE FOR JOURNEY TO THE CENTRE OF THE EARTH 3D, CORALINE, MY BLOODY VALENTINE (1 PAIR) so I know I had all the right equipment. However, for most of the time all I saw was blurred vision and purple/green outlines on everything. I felt like I was watching in double vision.

Some of the film was fine, hence the two stars, but over 90% was blurred and outlined. I ended up with a headache. If this is the future for films I think I'll stick to reading books, unless the technology can be greatly improved. This has put me off from buying any more 3D films for the foreseeable future.

2.0 out of 5 stars Another pointless remake, 4 May 2009
By Captain Pugwash "Lidders" (UK) - See all my reviews
(VINE VOICE)    (TOP 500 REVIEWER)   
This review is from: My Bloody Valentine 3D [DVD] [2008] (DVD)
Released to tie-in with the ever-increasing celebrations occasioned by Valentine's Day, this offering stays true to its horror roots with lashings of decapitations, dismemberments and gratuitous nudity.
The film itself is as dumb as you'd expect; the cast of pretty much unknowns deliver their lines without style or panache, and as they are slaughtered one-by-one by the film's bogeyman (seemingly a miner in a gas mask who died ten years previously) it is virtually impossible to care about what happens to any of them. As a way of killing a couple of hours on a wet Saturday this just about passes muster; as any kind of decent film it is distinctly below par and even lacks any of the irony that has become associated with the horror genre.

3.0 out of 5 stars Let's hope 3D can get better, 30 Jun 2010
By H. Grocott "addicted2film n book" (Cheshire. England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: My Bloody Valentine 3D [DVD] [2008] (DVD)
Yes, I have a large screen TV but I think 3D is a long way off being fun, or even scary. The picture quality in 3D was amazingly poor - fuzzy background etc.. When you have been used to a very good picture and excellent TV reception 3D looks like a badly tuned 1955 TV film. Yes, you could guess what the producer wanted - some things did appear to leap from the screen but I think watchable 3D id at least fifty years off. Bit like England at football - they turned up but didn't impress anyone.
