Nine entitled rich college students plan a party weekend at the secluded island
estate of classmate Muffy St. John, but end up getting picked off one by
one...off screen in completely bloodless ways. On the ferry ride over
there's an accident, due to some of the college pricks horseplaying, resulting
in one of the workers getting his head all smashed up. They feel bad for a
few minutes, but then it's time to paar-tay...and by paar-tay I mean eat dinner
and then go to bed. The next day their host starts acting weird.
Then guests start disappearing and people begin to suspect it could be her or
somehow the guy with the crack skull. None of it makes much sense, but it
doesn't matter cause the whole thing is so lightweight that I doubt could take
this film seriously. First off, the victims just disappear, so the
audience doesn't even have a villain to be scared of. Secondly, there's no
violence! Minus some swearing and a few obscene gestures APRIL FOOL'S DAY could
be shown almost unedited on network TV.
Zero gore, lame mystery, zero blood, fake looking decapitated heads, zero sex,
cheesy acting, lame 80's sex humor. The most interesting thing about the
whole movie is the cast. You got: Tom Wilson from
BACK TO THE FUTURE, that
dude who played the sleepy stripper dude in
SUMMER SCHOOL
and that blond chick from
FRIDAY THE 13TH PART 2. Also, that poster is badass!
On a side note I tried to watch the 2008 remake (if it actually is a remake),
but I had to turn it off after like 10 minutes cause it was fucking
terrible. Made my Oppo smell like dung beetle pussy!
