My Bloody Valentine 3D was the first Horror movie in awhile that I’ve seen and just had fun throughout the whole movie and why that is you as, it didn’t insist upon itself. Not once did I have to look for the hidden meaning or deal with over the top artistic death scenes; it was just a fun slasher flick that didn’t try to present itself as anything else.

The movie opens ten years ago; six miners are trapped in mine 5, when the rescue crew arrives they find five of them have been slaughtered while the 6^th is in a coma. A year passes and it’s Valentine’s Day. Our Murderous villain awakes just in time to slaughter most of the hospital employees and a gaggle of horny teenagers down at the local mine. Thankfully a few survive after being rescued by the sheriff and the maniac is shot down OR so we think.

Ten years pass and our survivors of the Bloody Valentine’s Day Massacre have gone on with their lives. The mad rush of impending death resulted in Sarah and Axel (Kerr Smith;of Dawson’s Creek & Jaime King;Sin City, General Muse) falling in love, while Sarah’s high school love & owner of said mines, Tom Haringer (Jensen Ackles; Supernatural), mysteriously arrives back in town to finally sell the mines. Needless to say madness ensues as soon as he arrives; after all, it has been ten years almost to the day since the last incident.

My Bloody Valentine 3D doesn’t promise to be anything more than it is; a horror flick that has the gimmick of being shot in magical 3 dimensional glory. I bet if we took that away it would be just another tragic horror flick with a pretty cast that nobody would really see, but let me tell you, this was the first time in a long time I actually enjoyed the rush of a horror film. Sure the acting is stale at points and Kerr Smith has a southern accent that fades off & on, but what it lacks in consistency MVB makes up with style.

Who couldn’t be impressed at half of a girl’s bloody head is falling of the base of a shovel towards you?

That’s normal…right?
