 A couple of guys are having a bachelor party before
one of them is getting married. Naturally, strippers
have been hired and arrive on time. Yes everything
seems to be going accordingly... until someone decides
to crash the party. They soon find themselves stuck
inside an old bar with a serial killer on the loose.
Will anyone survive this bachelor party from hell?


Bachelor Party Massacre, what a great idea huh? When
I saw that this was getting a UK DVD release I was
probably the first one to pre-order it. Well now
I've seen it and while it is still a great idea,
everything else about this movie was just terrible.
It's a low-budget slasher flick about a psychotic
serial killer who decides to crash a bachelor party.
But it's not a whodunit, we quickly learn that the
killer is a schizophrenic hot chick, who actually
turns out to be the most likable character in this
entire movie. For not only is the acting atrocious,
but all of the characters are either obnoxious ass
holes or paranoid bitches.

Now we don't have bachelor parties here in Sweden,
I think it's a typically American thing, but I know
enough about parties to be able to say that this is
a terrible bachelor party. In fact, the party was
dead even before the killer showed up. The strippers
are only mildly attractive and how fun is a bachelor
party with only four friends? The music is terrible,
there's an odd tension between the friends (hell,
they barely even seem to be friends) and the strippers
behave very badly (not in the good way). There's just
nothing good about this party at all so I was just
happy that a killer showed up and killed these
pathetic jerks once and for all.

Enough about the party now and on with the important
stuff. The directing is absolutely horrible and the
camerawork is even worse. I mean, the shaky camera
scenes just looked cheap, I don't know what they
were trying to do there. The execution was all wrong.
The death scenes were bleak and it just wasn't a very
entertaining slasher flick. If you make a movie with
a title like "Bachelor Party Massacre", I think you
have a lot to live up to, and that's something these
guys didn't do. It's a dull slasher which is luckily
very forgettable. Hopefully it won't get a US DVD release.


Some stabbings and some blood. I was bored.


The background music was just horrible. Worst thing
about this movie for sure. It didn't even try to
create any atmosphere.


Disappointing slasher flick which did not live up
to its title (nor its trailer). This might have been
a good idea in theory but when it made it to the
TV-screen, it just fell flat. Abysmal acting, even
worse characters, terrible directing and ultimately
a very poorly executed movie. Skip this low-rent slasher.
