Ron R Mar 20, 2019 Really, really, really bad!

Anakin S Dec 12, 2018 Great film for someone who did his first film. The visual was amazing and concept. Needed more jump scare but none the less great first film, usually people do very horrible. See more

Draco S Oct 2, 2018 Great old fashioned style slasher movie. Sexy cast, lots of killing, and campy fun. Great movie to watch on a date or with a group of friends! See more

Harry S Apr 19, 2018 Alternately registering as an homage and rip-off of the countless slasher pics that have preceded it, Pitchfork is a strictly disposable affair. See more

Han W Feb 11, 2018 Crossposted to https://www.tumblr.com/blog/slashinglyhandsome Trigger warnings: The standard Deep South slasher flick contents. Mild violence, blood, death (obviously), nonconsensual acts of sex and suggestion. After much searching on a quest to find a good LGBT+ horror film, I decided to go with all the Internet recommendations and watch Pitchfork. Directed by Glenn Packard, Pitchfork is an award- indie slasher film about a college boy and his friends venturing to his family farm to see his conservative father after coming out. There are all of the staple slasher tropes. A party, alcohol, useless cops, a scummy boyfriend, and of course, a killer with total disregard of the people he is murdering. And there's also an Andy Grammer dance sequence, just for the fun of it. Without spoiling anything, the movie lures you into the ever-familiar false sense of security that you're simply watching another low-budget slasher, and then crotch-thrusts you in the face. Most of the characters are likable, with the blonde best friend Claire being the stand-out. The twist is predictable but horrifically done (in a really good, twisted way), and the last act of the movie doesn't hold back. Altogether, Pitchfork is definitely on the better end of the indie horror spectrum. It made me laugh out loud several times while sufficiently disturbing me with its climax. I'd recommend it to fans of the Wrong Turn franchise who aren't that big on gore but still enjoy the backwoods torture subgenre (is this an official thing?). Don't expect the LGBT+ aspect to be a huge part of the plot. Movie murderers care less about sexual orientation than your ten-year-old animal-whispering little sister. 3.5/5 dead performing arts majors See more

Draco S Jul 21, 2017 cheesy filming where every angle is the same. Characters were fake, when people were stabbed, there was no showing of it happening, but you would see the aftermath and that was all. Very fake and unoriginal. Unrealistic scenes, confusing storyline, no plot, and unoriginal villian. See more
