*SPOILER ALERT* *SPOILER ALERT* A bunch of teenagers head to an abandoned ski lodge to shred. Apparently, "shredding" is what you do when you snowboard. Who said you couldn't learn anything from B-movies? There is an angry skier there who hates snowboarders. The killer is out to do some snowboarder shredding. For all you skiers who hate snowboarders, this is the movie for you. I live in Florida and haven't seen snow in years. Thank God. The only time I see snow is in a movie. "Shredder" was pretty good for a straight to video slasher movie. I was pleased. The killer came up with plenty of good inventive kills. The very last kill in the movie had me cheering. "Who's the shredder now?!" All the girls were hot. One even got naked! WOO-HOO! "Shredder" is worth a look if you like slasher flicks. One last thing, I have to scream foul on the main blond. FOUL! She was the hottest girl and did not get naked. That's just not right. The filmmakers really decided to stick it to us by giving us plenty of tease scenes. She's in a hot tub having sex, she makes a move for her girlfriend in the bathroom, she is changing clothes every five seconds and yet there is no nudity. Attention Slasher Movie Filmmakers: If you can't show the goodies, don't bother. Stop the tease. Stop the madness!

Starring the seriously underused/underrated Lindsey McKeon this is a highly colour by numbers slasher with a couple of redeeming features. For a start the setting is great, set high up the mountains where all the snowboarders/skiers dwell. Next is the cast, better than you'd expected considering what type of film it is. And finally though they are deep into the film it does have some quite neat ideas! Blending the excellent Out Cold (2001) with one of a billion generic slashers pays off with bits of comedy thrown into break free of the predictable tedium of the genre. You won't even easily predict the identity of the killer, I was astounded when it turned out not to be Reverend Green in the kitchen with the rolling pin! Flabbergasted I tell you. Better than you'd might think but still instantly forgettable.

I gave this movie a 3 because i think you have to be really talented to make a movie suck this bad. I Mean this was really really bad. The only thing that made this movie good at all is that the girls were pretty hot, well 90's hot. This movie is about some snow board kids and such, They go to this resort and its got some issues. GET THIS! The Main character was the boyfriend of DJ Tanner in the 90's show Full House! I saw it from the moment he came on he screen it was instant. Lets just say danny tanner would be very upset with this guy, he is vulgar and riff raff. This movie is so bad that you have to see it. There are some sexy parts. But just a little. lol

An annoying bunch of 20 somethings go to spend a weekend at an abandoned ski resort. They plan to go "shredding" (snow boarding) and whoop it up. All the stereotypes are in place: the nice girl; his girlfriend; the female *; the maybe lesbian; the crazy "funny" guy; the constantly stoned guy and the mysterious European guy they pick up along the way. Also the "funny" crazy guy is constantly videotaping everything and we get extremely annoying, jarring cuts to his footage. This has quickly become a cliché since "The Blair Witch Project". Can we put it to rest now? It also seems the resort was the site of an unsolved murder...and there are rumors that the killer is still around... It all starts out great with a bloody, gruesome murder...then falls apart quick. All the characters are annoying with the girls constantly prancing around in their underwear and being used (and filmed) as sex objects. Some people have complained that there wasn't enough female nudity in this film. Well...you know what? Not EVERYBODY wants female nudity in a horror film! As a gay man I find it boring and pointless. This film deserves credit for not having too much. And they do have hunky handsome Brad Hawkins shirtless a lot! That's a good thing. Also we have to wait 40 minutes in till the next murder. There's also a really stupid final revelation at the end and I love how a dead person mysteriously is alive at the end! On the good side: the acting isn't bad. That's surprising in a film like this. The best acting comes from Hawkins and Juleah Weikes. The only bad performance is from Scott Weinger. It's not entirely his fault...he's given little to work with but he does try. And there are a few very amusing lines. At one point Cole (Weinger) is constantly accusing one person of being the murderer. When they find that person dead he say's "All right--it's not him. Let's get out of here!" Also when a woman finds some dead bodies in the basement she goes screaming upstairs. Pike (Weikes) confronts her saying, "For future reference, the next time we're stalked by a serial killer do NOT go into the basement." Also the murders are VERY violent and incredibly bloody (I mean this as a good thing). The film also really picks up speed and the final half hour is good, fast and violent. The film has high production values (for a direct to video feature). It has some nice direction during the shredding episodes and the cinematography is nice, clear and crisp. A lot of people have blasted this film but...come on! It's a direct to video horror film! What were they expecting? "Gone With the Wind?" It's a fairly good, fast horror flick. Worth a rental but don't go out of your way to see it.

Teenagers head off to Colorado mountains for a weekend of snow boarding. Once there, it becomes apparent that someone wants to kill them. Direct to video slasher flick has its moments of fun. There's some good murder sequences and some moments of mild suspense. Also we get some good photography of the mountains, as well as a nicely 'isolated' feel in the atmosphere. But, as you may have guessed, it's a movie that falls into many of the cliché teeny-bopper slasher trappings. The youthful cast is OK, although their characters are typically paper-thin. And of course, as with most post-Scream thrillers there's the surprising turns in the finale. At any rate, Shredder is a fairly entertaining slasher, even if you just check it out for laughs. ** 1/2 out of ****

I love this movie. It's one of the best straight to video slasher that's come out recently. The kills are great. The killer looks scary and the blood looked good too (What did they use?) And it's funny! Not many Horror/Comedies can pull it off but this one did. One running joke with the ski lift will make you laugh out loud. The characters are surprisingly lovable. While the one you wanted to die died first, the ones you wanna live go on a rollercoster of danger. You want them to live, but will they? While it does have a simple plot, this movie fails to bore. Nothing will make you roll your eyes or "fast foreward to the good scenes" So go rent this. Enjoy!

No, not a film about the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle's nemesis, but instead a rather lame slasher flick about a bunch of teens away together on a skiing trip. True to form, they start disappearing one by one, so which one of them is the killer? Not surprisingly, it ISN'T the most obvious suspect. Add some buxom beauties for T & A purposes, a bit of blood here and there and a few minor jump scenes, and you've got yourself a direct-to-video hit. Who cares if the acting is school nativity level and 95% of the movie is just boring talk? The budget is so minuscule that if just the people in the bus queue rented it, it would still make a nice profit. But at what cost? An hour and a half of your life. Personally, I value my free time more than that. You should too. 1/10

I rented this as second choice to a film that was out of stock and, to my surprise, found it to be a deliciously entertaining and competently produced slasher pic. Of course there's nothing new in terms of plot or craftsmanship but the present cliches come together nicely in a fun flick that centers itself around the weekend trip of a group of inner-city college kids on a snowboarding (or "shredding") excursion to an old abandoned ski lodge where a past crime still irritates the locals... A mystery killer-skier all dressed in black takes offence at the shredding culture and so decides to do a little shredding of their own and stabs, slashes and impales most of the cast until their identity is more obvious than a bad drag queen. Nevertheless, there are some inventive murders on parade, passable acting and neat one-liners and comedy setups (like a recurring joke about a character hanged from the chairlift that no one seems to notice) that are indebted to the recent tidal wave of referential teen horror films. Overlook one or two shoddy effects that reflect the budget and this is a decent way to munch through some popcorn! Best line: "The next time we're being stalked by a serial killer do not go into the basement."
