My Bloody Valentine has lously gender politics for a slasher movie, and that's both disappointing and disconcerting because the film has probably made enough money to merit a sequel and inspire other 3D horror movies.

In the end, the movie is a true blood-splashed valentine to fans of the cheesy genre that spawned it.

My Bloody Valentine 3D doesn't have nearly enough fun with either its jazzy technology or its inherently campy premise.

It is absolutely nuts and bolts. It does what it says in the packet.

This briskly paced remake of the 1981 slasher goes easy on the cheesy 3-D effects while delivering lots of seriously nasty gore.

Blending ample serves of gore and nudity with a dash of self-awareness, Lussier skilfully uses the 3D format to simulate the perspectives of both predator and victim...

Feb 21, 2021PSA: DO NOT WATCH THE THEATRICAL VERSION WHICH IS WHAT YOU'LL FIND ON STREAMING. GET THE UNCUT VERSION ON BLURAY. After waiting most of my life to finally watch Black Christmas, which I loved, I figured I should check out My Bloody Valentine. This was pure B-movie cheese which was seriously enhanced by some great kill scenes. I watched this originally on streaming and was unimpressed. The Blu Ray uncut version? Very fun. The scenes in the mine were the most interesting and should've been at least 50% of the movie (ala The Descent). An extra star for the cool mine uniform which was the creepiest thing in the whole movie.Mark B Super Reviewer

Aug 30, 2016The atmosphere and premise that made the original so great were gone, this is a very loose remake of the Canadian slasher about a serial killer dressed in miner suit terrorising a small town. In the remake, the killer kills randomly and there were piles of gratuitous gore for no reason other than to fill the dreadful running time. The only person worth watching in the film was Jaime King who did a brilliant job. Other than a very high body count, the film fell in the same categories as the crappy remake hype byproduct.Sylvester K Super Reviewer

Jan 04, 2016Just another typical slasher film but they think adding 3D would make it better, I watched the 2D version so cant tell you if it makes a big difference to this boring film, A few good kills and a nice twist at the end still can't save it from being very poor.Jamie C Super Reviewer

Dec 20, 2012It's a slasher film with a reverse gimmick. I'm not talking about the 3D effects either, which are typical. The reverse gimmick is sneaky, but I'll tell anyway: most films of this splatter play towards the surprise (but its not anymore, cause everyone does it in all of these films) that the killer isn't who you've been led to think it is, its somebody completely different). The spin here, so wicked its nearly original, is that the killer IS who you think it is. SURPRISE. ;) Oops, spoiler alert. Have fun anyway.Kevin M. W Super Reviewer
