'Memorial Day Massacre' (1999) - Christopher Alender.

Watching the rather insalubrious 'Memorial Day Massacre' the old saying, 'if something looks like ass, tastes like ass and smells like ass, then it's probably ass!' sprung all too readily to mind! But, on rare occasions, a cheap n cheesy, spit n sawdust S.O.V slasher can manifestly look like ass, have profoundly ass-like qualities, and yet, miraculously, some of its content still manages to transcend its conspicuously butt-like tendencies. Well, Christopher Alender's buck ninety backwoods slasher is just that kinda super-creaky no budget camcorder campout cheese-fest! Plus points are the okay-ish acting, crude fratboy banter and the surprisingly inventive kills. The main suckage comes from the generic text, frequently ill-lit exteriors and the hooded killer's goofy papier-mâché mask. So, why did I enjoy this fitfully amusing Dollar Tree terror spree? well, quite frankly, I'm probably far more of an ass than I'd care to admit!
