The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

One of the best movies of the year! Incredible from the beginning to the end.

Yes, absolutely, there is fun to be had, as well as many, many things to go boom, all amid an atmospheric urban jungle.

Bloodmoon is one god awful horror flick, dreadful, and is just another reason, most horror films in the good ole land of Oz, suck. It reminds me heavily of two other horror films, Splatter University and Fatal Pulse. This film I sadly say, almost doesn't have one. The whole film is dreadful. Yes some beautiful co eds, real lovelies, are being disposed of by a sick knife slashing maniac, duhh.... you think it's one of the faculty? Even the killer's ties to sexy headmistress, Christine Amor who you could say, overacts a storm, had me in disbelief. Watching her go off at him when learning her husband's murderous habits, had returned, was painful. Oh, yeah the Bloodmoon challenge, a sort of suspended intermission, if trying to suspense it up, and failing a hundred percent, just holding the movie up. What was that about? I did like the boy and the girl, from different scholastic backgrounds, where the boy and his mates were having run ins with the other scholastic pricks from wealthier backgrounds. Honestly suspense failed me as everything else did in this bomb. I would say the whole thing in another context was a limited and in parts, unbelievable affair, mostly concerning our strange couple. Some moments of the movie were repulsively awful. The film somehow felt short sheeted as what went to film from script, where may'be there was a bit too much editing. Honestly, Bloodmoon, something that showed enthusiastic promise, sadly results in a unimpressive project on all fronts, that took a nose dive fast. Released in cinemas with a M rating, where an R 18+ went to video.

Since I just watched Jess Franco's BLOODY MOON, my film addled brain logically felt this Aussie slasher is what I should watch next. Bad move, brain, bad move. A killer is offing girls at a private school, which spells trouble for our two lovebird leads. This is pretty standard stuff but the filmmakers absolutely blow it about 50 minutes in. Our killer - always in the shadows - wraps some barb wire around the next of a young guy and, inadvertently, steps into the light for a second and you see their face! They left it in but keep playing the "Who is this crazy killer?" angle for the rest of the film. Director Alec Mills is usually a DP who has done work on some big films (the two Dalton BOND flicks, for example) so the mistake is doubly embarrassing. Avoid, even if your brain tries to tell you a double feature of BLOODY MOON and BLOODMOON is a good idea.

A very weak Australian slasher. I had also the chance to watch it on USA Network, in fact, it was played very often. For coming out in the late 80's BLOOD MOON doesn't offers anything you haven't seen. The box cover fooled me as it seemed to be a straight slasher. I consider this as a soap opera with slasher elements.
An unknown prowler wanders the territory of a private a school for women and the school next to it of men. This prowler kills people from both schools using a barb wire.There's a subplot of romance and some conflicts between teachers. Nothing interesting from this movie to be saved. Almost no gore, scary scenes, annoying characters, and a lame killer. Don't expect nothing from this movie. BLOODMOON is boring even for the gorehounds. Only die hard fans of the genre could watch it completely.3/10.

Those were the days... Where this kind of slashers were a reason for staying home on a Friday night when being 12 or 13 years old.I remember this movie airing on USA NETWORK almost every 6 months, but it wasn't until the 10th time it aired that I decided to watch it. The first 10 minutes are kind of creepy, then the movie gets boring until the expected end. The killer is no way scary, and even the plenty of gore and hot girls doesn't help "BLOODMOON" being a slasher to be remembered.Just for die hard fans of the genre.
