October Horror Movie Challenge - The Loved Ones (2009)


Synopsis: When Brent, a young man haunted by the death of his father, turns down his classmate Lola's invitation to the prom he's kidnapped and tortured by Lola and her father, who've decided to have a dance of their own.

The Good: This cast of this Aussie flick do an amazing job. Lola and her dad are such great villains because at first glance they seem so normal. There's definitely some gore in this one if you're into that. Seriously, poor Brent, has some really nasty stuff done to him.

The Bad: Some of the stuff that happens to Brent is hard to watch. 

Final Thoughts: This really does feel like a horror flick directed by John Hughes. If you like slashers and such, check it out.

In Your Game: 

Loved Ones

AC 9 [10]   HD: 2    Attacks: Weapon (1d6-1) Move: 12

Weakness: These slashers are (or at least physically) everyday folks. They don't have any special weakness, though at the same time they don't have any special powers. They're just normal people and as susceptible to attacks as the survivor.
