Mjeteconer Just perfect...

Matialth Good concept, poorly executed.

Sexyloutak Absolutely the worst movie.

Lollivan It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

Leofwine_draca LOVERS LANE is a low rent slasher movie filmed in Washington state and with much in common with the genre circa the 1980s. Certainly it lacks the self-referential knowing attitude of the genre post-SCREAM as well as the graphic kind of gore scenes that the likes of URBAN LEGEND featured around the turn of the millennium. The reason this film is so humdrum is that it was made on a very low budget, just one step above a shot-on-video level I should imagine.This film's professional cameras are the most interesting thing about it because the rest isn't really up to par. A town still haunted by a series of historical murders is put through the ringer once more when the killer starts up again. The characters are dull even though the filmmaking qualities are a little better than expected. Anna Faris stars, just before she achieved fame with the SCARY MOVIE series.

Bezenby Due to the success of I Know What You Did Last Supper, my copy of Lover's Lane is actually called I Have Knowledge of a Certain Criminal Incident That You Were Implicated In At Some Point Last Year, and seems to be some sort of take on the old urban myth of the escaped lunatic with the hook creeping out people getting it on at some lane or other. It's also a post-Scream film, so expect lots of smart arse teenagers and a twist that comes out of nowhere if you haven't seen Scream or just about any Gialli from the seventies.After a brief prologue where two folks (one the sheriff's wife, the other a teacher's husband) are killed in Lover's Avenue, we fast forward to the present (1999) and get to meet a bunch of characters we have seen so often you'll know them all, but I'll describe them anyway. You've got the jock and his bitchy popular girlfriend, the geeky girl who studies, the new girl who's a cheerleader, the fat jokey one who can't get a date, and some others (I guess this film is too early to add a lesbian goth chick to the proceedings).From what I could gather the bitchy chick gets dumped and starts hitting on the jock's mate while trying to set up some prank at Lover's Lane where everyone ends up. Plus the guy who was imprisoned for the previous murders escapes and there's a few red herrings and then everyone starts getting wasted by a hook killer type.I'd guess you'd rate a slasher by how creepy it is (like the original Black Christmas), how gory it is (like Pieces) or how off the wall hilariously bad it is (also Pieces, and Don't Open Till Christmas, and Don't Go Into the Woods Alone) or how booby it is (Fatal Games, Slumber Party Massacre, Pieces). Lover's Lane for the most part seems to pull away when it gets to the killings, but I suppose it's fast paced enough not to become too boring, and there's a few twists to keep you awake a bit longer than usual.Do you think that filmmakers will notice that the youth of today no longer care for slasher films as they are too busy stalking each other on Facebook or watching TV box sets and are therefore probably not the target audience (or for that matter, the main victims in a slasher film)? It'd be interesting for a change that the victims be fat middle aged people moaning about new technology.

LordHolocaust I watched this movie cos it was on a double disc that I bought. I was surprised to see Anna Faris in this movie, so I kept watching it. The plot of the movie was rubbish I have to say. The only motive visible is a guy starts murdering people 'cos he can't get laid. There seems to be three killers in this, all outlining the same psycho. At the end you don't know who the f**k is really the killer. The death seens could have been improved, I have to admit, even though some of them did have some memoriable moments. The sex scenes are bad, such as a girl removing her shirt, and we are only able to see from outside of a steamed up window. I have to give this movie 3/10. Not something I'd reccommend, but if your just looking to see some teenage kids being chopped up for no particular reason, watch it all you want.

scente This is a dang good flick to be as unheard of as it is. It is AS good as Cherry Falls and that is a very well known flick around the horror circuit. It has a lot of slasher flick cliches, but being a slash lover, I love slasher flick cliches! Killer P.O.V , young lovers parked and getting it on, a killer with a hook. All of this is done very stylishly with an interesting young cast and one very funny cheese scene in a bathroom stall that is laugh out loud funny to grizzled slasher burnouts like myself. I predict this film will one day find a cult audience. Finding a slash diamond in the rough is dang near impossible these days, I know I have hunted every obscure horror flick I can find and most even the cult ones disappoint, with a few exceptions i.e. the burning, black christmas, my bloody valentine, house on sorority row-- those films are cool hunt them down if you can! Now lets all go down to the XXX Root Beer Stand!!! Four stars out of four.
