ManiakJiggy This is How Movies Should Be Made

Ameriatch One of the best films i have seen

Phonearl Good start, but then it gets ruined

Wyatt There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.

C To be honest, this movie surprised me on many levels, mostly because I did not expect it to evoke an emotional response (must agree with sam-brody here). Typical vampire movies make fun of themselves and create special effects that border on laughable, if not just disgusting.Kudos to this small budget director for a great debut.I like the animated bits of the storyline, it added a very creative spin to this film's story. The character development progresses very well, and considering how almost all the creative direction was taken by this one guy, not bad at all (I know him, yes, but I'm not biased, I hate biased reviews, and this is really one of the best things I've seen in a while when it comes to zombie-vampire-horror flicks).

chriswnyc Slayer is a brilliantly executed independent film with an interesting and "satisfyingly unsatisfying" frank and no-frills approach to horror and violence.What's special about Slayer is its use of realism in a generally sensationalized and fantasy-heavy film genre. Peduzzi crafts fight scenes and violence that should be "cool" but shoots them with realistic sound effects and no music in a way that makes you sympathetic to the pain of the "bad guys" and forces a reexamination of the traditional cinematic glamorization of violence. I've never seen this concept executed as effectively as in this film.The film also showcases Ed Peduzzi's virtuosic ability to tell a story through technical aspects of the medium of film. With colors that look like moving impressionist paintings of New England as often as deep crimson blood and gore. The animated-collage dream sequence is also a highlight.Thumbs, toes, and all other available body parts up.

sam-brody slayer - admittedly a title you've seen before, whether on a TV show or a band you might like. but don't let that stop you from checking out this movie, which is not what you think it'll be.yes, it's a genre picture, but it isn't about gore, fancy action, or frivolous geeky details. it's about creating a mood, and if you ask me it's a commentary on the entire glut of Joseph-campbell-inspired "chosen one" type stories out there, with their hero's journeys and their ultimate redemptions. a movie to take seriously.oh, and also, ed peduzzi is a virtuosic director who pulled off this professional-looking movie on the thinnest of budgets. worth watching for the cinematography alone. (full disclosure: i know the director and helped out in the tiniest way on some shots.)

Syra526 I saw this movie as a judge in a film festival for Fylmz.com. I was skeptical about it, but it was the best choice out of that genre. Ten minutes into the film I was ready to turn it off, twenty minutes in I had actually shut it off. Out of boredom, and lack of anything else to watch, it got turned back on. The longer I watched the more sucked in I got. By the end I was immersed in the storyline and totally in love with the characters. The acting was a little rough, as was the camera action, but all in all it was very good. If you come across Slayer in your movie travels, give it a shot, you just might like it.
