Heart Stopper

Characters:

Walter: One of the main characters, and one of the few survivors, nearly dies on multiple occasions

The Sheriff: A nice enough dude, captured John but ends up with his heart ripped out.

Denise Grafton: The head nurse, seems to want to die, and gets her wish whilst being beaten with a lead pipe

Doctor Drayis: A surgeon and one of the few remaining doctors at the hospital, has multiple holes pumped into his head

John Chambers: Yes our satanic killer, kills people by pulling out their hearts and sending them to Satan, killed in a giant tornado




Plot:
After a failed suicide attempt young Sarah wakes up in a hospital that is under attack by un-dead satanic serial killer John Chambers, with a serial killer on the loose the members of the closing hospital must teem together and fight back or die trying








Review:
This was a surprise This is a fairly entertaining slasher movie that has the feel and stench of the 80's all over it It is gorefilled, funny, entertaining, and worth a good rent It took long enough for a slasher not to use a twist ending and there was not one in here. Your never really bored throughout the film although the last half hour seems to drag a bit, I mean they did kill off almost all of the characters by the hour mark. But while it may be fun it is a very forgettable film and I can say that you will have forgotten most of it by the time you are done watching it

The directing is fairly good, really brings on the 80's feel and uses some interesting angles. The acting is fairly good as well, with good acting from all of the main characters and Robert Englund, although the rest of the characters seem to be lacking. This is one of my shortest reviews yet and I can still clearly understand why. Heart Stopper is a fun and enjoyable slasher movie but it is rather generic and forgettable. I would recommend this movie a good rental for all slasher fanatics I wouldn’t buy it as I can see that it’s not something I would watch more than once...






Gore:
a lot of gory hearts pulled out, a stomach pulled open, a needle in the eye, slashed face, and some blood splatter. Pretty good stuff.





T&A:
Nothing here.



Bodycount:
15



Final rating:
3/5
