VALENTINE- 2001 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Roses are red, violets are blue....
They'll need dental records to identify you.
Valentine is one of my favourite slasher/horror movies of all time. Its about a group of friends who are targeted by a mysterious cupid faced killer on the run up to Valentines Day. Although there are a few suspects, all signs point towards Jeremy Melton, a kid they bullied in high school who could be out for revenge....
What makes Valentine great?
Its so much fun! Inspired partially by classic 80s slashers, the plot is quite minimal, but the kills are excellent. I think the killers mask can make or break a slasher film but this one i quite like, its pretty creepy. The killer uses everything from an iron to a bow and arrow. Some of the kills are brutal, some are a bit sillier, but all very inventive.....
Excellent opening kill sequence. Katherine Heigl plays Shelley, who gets her throat slit. Although she had already died once that evening while at dinner with Jason, one of the horniest guys in this film (and thats saying something).
With the exception of one of Shelleys colleagues who is on screen for less than a minute, every guy in this movie is absolutely insane. And im not complaining, its hilarious. Every guy in the film is completely unable to not act like a creepy hornball. Even the detective working on there case cant control himself.
The cast is great. The stars of the show are Denise Richards, Marley Shelton and David Boreanaz. Denise is hilarious and stunning as Paige, a sassy bitch who isnt afraid to pour candle wax on a guys johnson when he gets out of line. Jennifer Love Hewitt was originally cast as Paige but replaced by Richards. Marley Shelton plays Kate, one of the main characters who is sweet and likable. David Boreanaz plays Adam, Kates love interest who wants to get back with her but is also battling alcohol addiction. As a huge Buffy fan, always love seeing cast members in a good movie, theres also a reference to his character Angel:
I absolutely love the film for 2000s nostalgia. The clothes, the cast, even the music. The soundtrack is filled with Deftones, Marilyn Manson, Rob Zombie etc.... miss horror movies having rock and metal soundtracks.
Valentine is based on a novel by Tom Savage but has a completely different tone. The directors job was originally offered to Richard Kelly who turned it down to work on his own project (Donnie Darko). The job then went to Australian director Jamie Blanks who had some success with his first feature, 1998s Urban Legend.
Urban Legend is another one of my favourite horror movies and this film pairs perfectly with it. Both movies are light hearted, funny and focus more on classic slasher style kills than being actually scary.
"Forgive me for Valentine, a lot of people gave me grief for that but we did our best" - Jamie Blanks.
Valentine was panned by critics upon release. Although when you look through them, a lot do seem to be from people who sound as though they hate slasher movies in general. The film grossed 36 million dollars on a 29 million dollar budget. So while not a box office bomb wasnt as succesful as the studio had hoped, killing any chance of a sequel.
While i can see why its not for everyone, this film is right up my alley and i watch it at least once a year. Its an underated gem with great rewatch ability.
One of my favourite movies.
