A teen slasher movie made by and for MTV.
The story: a guy starts killing people in a roller rink. Years later, the daughter of that guy is a school outcast, but then the hottest guy in school starts to kiles her. Meanwhile the bitchy, pretty, popular girl decides to hold her sweet sixteen party at the roller rink where all those people were killed. The hot guy wants to be with the outcast, but before their first date he has to go the bitchy girl's sweet sixteen party, so the outcast girl decides to crash it. Except, what do you know, her father is back and he starts killing people again.
Was it good?
Kind of. I mean, as a horror movie is sucked. Boring, predictable...almost laughably bad. But as a teen movie it wasn't that bad. It got the feel of the teens right for the most part and the dialog was definitely a step above. I could see where the script might have been a really good read to get the attention of MTV. And it was interesting to see their take on a lot of elements (the outcast girl wanted to fit it, her romance with the popular guy, the bitchy girl wanting to get the popular guy back, etc) that I have been trying to work on in one of my scripts. So it's a mixed bad -- there was enough for me to be willing to check out the sequel, but not enough that I would recommend it in general.
