From the director of
URBAN LEGEND
comes the safe story of some young ladies who were mean to a nerd at a middle
school Valentine's Day dance and now (thirteen years later) one of the girls is
murdered by a nerd in a cherub mask. After that, all of the remaining girls
get Valentine cards and then get picked off one by one in mildly imaginative
ways until the big Valentine's Day party at the end.
Light blood, zero gore, zero nudity, very little cussing, zero mystery as to who
the killer was, zero scares, unfunny attempts at humor, somebody referring to
David Boreanaz as "not an angel". On paper it sounds bad, but it
wasn't actually that horrible. Just a little bit horrible.
Never once did anything original happen, but at the same time I was mildly
entertained. Worth a watch for very non-demanding and very bored horror
fans.
IMDb says the budget was $29M, but that's gotta be incorrect cause there
damn sure ain't $29 million on the screen! I'd be shocked if the budget
was over $10M.
