Gutterballs UNCUT Review
Written by: Suspiria_89
I really didn’t know what to expect going into this movie. I had seen some a lot of bad reviews and a lot of good reviews. After watching the movie I can definitely say that Gutterballs is one of those horror movies that you will either love or hate. And I for one love it.
Plot: A brutally sadistic rape leads to a series of bizzare gory murders during a midnight disco bowl-a-rama at a popular bowling alley. One by one, players of both teams meat blood dreched gruesmoe deaths at the hands of a black bowling gloved masked killer. The alley will run red with blood by sunrise and the shocking twist that reveals the kill will shock even the most jaded viewer.
Gutterballs is a great homage to 80’s slasher flicks and I had a blast watching it. I loved the setting, the humor, the great 80’s sounding sound track and of course the over the top brutal violence and gore. And we get a lot of it. The first really brutal scene is a long gang rape scene, it isn’t pretty and at times its hard to watch. Soon after the rape scene, the bodies start to pile up and the kills scenes are awesome. We have several creative kills such as the infamous death by 69 scene. There is also the very graphic and realistic looking penis mutilation scene. But my favorite is by far a death scene that involves a talking bowling ball waxing machine. Words can’t describe how awesome and funny(yes, I know that I’m sick) that scene is. You have to watch it for yourself. Another thing I really liked about Gutterballs is the setting. I have seen a lot of slasher movies but I have never scene one set inside of a bowling alley. I also liked the soundtrack. It really gave the movie that classic 80’s feel.
Although I really enjoyed Gutterballs, it does have its problems. The biggest being the acting and the script. I have literally seen better acting in high school plays and the script isn’t much better. Every other word is “Fuck”. It’s kind of funny at first but gets old after the first five minutes. The lightning was also pretty bad in some parts, but it actually helped the movie by giving it even more of a 80’s feel.
Overall Gutterballs is a really fun movie to watch if you don’t take it to serious. If you like the old campy 80’s movies, than you will probably enjoy this one. If you like horror movie that are more serious you should probably avoid it.
