I shouldn't be writing this review. Not only do I not remember this movie very well, I have 3 other movie reviews floating around in my head. I watched 4 movies and didn't even touch this blog, and these were all movies that needed to be blog-ified, they were the above mentioned Grindhouse Review. Man, I feel so separated from that blog title by now. It feels like I don't even try to be Grindhouse any more. Sorry, mom.
Savage Weekend is very low-rent. I went through and watched trailers for every movie in my Amazon watch list. This was a cool idea I had at work the other day, I was like, "I don't even know what half these are about, I need to see the trailers." And the trailers to a lot of them were really cool, I felt good about my choices Savage Weekend stuck out too, this movie has a kick ass trailer. It's not even relevant any more to say the trailer was better than the movie. There was no comparison at all. The trailer was great - I was a lame-o, at work, sober, bored - the trailer fixed that. The movie, on the other hand....
This movie, I guess this is a compliment, didn't feel 70's at all. I was guessing the year up above and I was definitely going to put 80's. I was able to detect, with my expertise, that is was actually a faking-it '79 flick. Isn't it funny how we can quantify a movie based on what year it came out? We rationalize it in our head. Oh, so they were all in the, you know, 70's way of thinking....no wonder....
I think that this movie was about a masked killer. He stalked people and killed them. Also, something about a boat. IMDb tells me there was a boat involved in the plot of this, I don't remember that at all. I watched this while nearly falling asleep, what can I say.
It had some atmosphere and despite the fact I can't remember it I'll still give it a star.
