Simply A Masterpiece

If you don't like this, we can't be friends.

The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.

This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

What can you say about a movie like this? Capably acted? Sure. Filmed with a camera? Absolutely. Made on planet Earth? You bet. An original story with compelling death scenes that is capable of holding your interest? Errr...well...not so fast.If you've only seen 10 horror movies in your life, you've probably seen this plot at least 8 times. Guy returns home to strange (and estranged) family with friends whose only purpose are so we have more people to kill. Mode of transportation breaks down so hapless gang is stuck at the mercy of aforementioned strange folks. Masked killer kills them one by one for no apparent reason. There is so little to this movie that such a synopsis almost borderlines on a spoiler.It's not that the acting is bad, it's just hard to care about anyone in the movie. And really...where the hell do they get off calling such a sissy rock band "Slash"? "Slash" should be the name of at least a hard rock band (if not metal)...not these bunch of whiny Nancy boys (and girl).The death scenes in the film are completely forgettable and there's hardly any blood/gore to speak of (a huge minus for me, but maybe a plus for some). All in all you're left with a mildly warmed over version of a lot of much better movies. Save your time and watch those instead because you won't kick yourself for missing out on this garbage.

While in a tour with his rock band Slash, the lead singer Mac (James O'Shea) is informed that his aunt died and his family is expecting him in their farm, where he spent his childhood, for the funeral. The group travels in their bus and meets the weird patriarch and Mac's father Jeremiah (Steve Railsback). The local Billy Bob (Nick Boraine) tells about an old tradition called "harvest of blood" used to improve the harvest. Their bus has problems with the injector and they get stuck in the farm, while a serial killer chases each one of them to collect their blood."Slash" is a rip-off of many others similar slasher movies in a cornfield, with scarecrow, harvest and axes, but it is watchable. The story is predictable and has a huge flaw, when Mac uses a fake knife to stab his girlfriend. How could he know that the knife was false, if he had no contact with the owner? My vote is five.Title (Brazil): "Slash – Rock do Terror" ("Slash – Rock of the Terror")

The only reason why I would give this movie a perfect 10 is because, I liked the movie and yet, Zuleikha Robinson is 100 sexy actress material. She is actually the only reason why I got so attracted to the movie. I love the music and as a screenplay writer, I have to watch movies of every genre and personally, all the movies that I have seen. I have no doubts about them, but some could've had a little more work done to them, like mine of course. I've got lots of work to do. Beside all of that, I love the horror/thriller genre and this movie convinced me a whole lot. Especially when they started singing and what not. I will say this once again. I love the music but, the ending theme really got to me. It's bad enough it can't be found anywhere. Not even for the soundtrack, which currently doesn't exist till this day. I'm starting to actually think that the music was only made for the movie. Which means that it was made-for-movie material. That really sucks.

This was a pretty good movie. I caught late one night on Cinemax. The band Slash is like any average band, a brooding lead singer, his love interest/manager and a collection of eclectic musicians that complete the group. Mac (the lead) has to return home to a family funeral, the same home which his mother whisked him away from at an early age though he can't remember why. But there is a family secret hidden in Mac's forgotten memories, a secret still living amongst the cornfield. As the group wait to get their bus fixed and get back on the road, band members begin to disappear as the the past comes back to haunt them. As Mac begins to remember the truth, the word "Slash" takes on a new form as the group becomes unwitting pawns in the MacDonald's shocking family tradition of the "Harvest of Blood." "Slash" though a horror flick is light on the gore that one usually finds in slasher flicks (which I was pleasantly surprised to find out) plus it had some comical moments, like the name "MacDonald's Farm" and the hick farmer knowing more about music that self-proclaimed "know-it-all" in the group; not to mention the song in the end, although sounding good, being entitled, "Eee-aiy-ee-OOOHHH! All in all, Decent flick, enjoyable to watch.
