April Fool's Day (1986). This seemingly standard-fare 80s horror flick is far from average. Cornered into a one word description, fun is the one comprehensive term that best describes it. The childish pranks that are played and their result fall prey to the the horrors that will follow. But let us not gloss over the pranks, for they make up a huge element of this flick's entertainment value. And while the notion of sex is a concentration that these youngins cannot seem to fulfill, there is not a gratuitous scene within miles. The acting is a notch above average, perfect for a flick of this caliber. Great editing and fun transitions serve to keep one's chained to the screen. How the shot composure concentrates on color collaborations makes it a visual treat. This is simply a nice variation of the genre flicks of this crazy era. Merci beaucoup.
