Rose of Death (2007)
Good Cure For Insomnia
First of all, I gotta say, movies that start with this setup of friends conspiring to cover up an accident or, in this case, a murder, are hard for me to get in to to begin with. Usually, in a slasher, you need at least one character you can sympathize with. With this set up, I have no one to feel sorry for because, as far as I'm concerned, they all deserve what they get. At least Prom Night and I Know What You Did Last Summer had a fairly decent story and some good shocks to keep the movie moving. This unfortunately did not. What we had here was a poorly shot, very amateur film. In the night time scenes, you can't see a damn thing! Then there was the acting. They all seemed to be reading this off cue cards for the first time, no emotion. Then we had a real gem when the "forensic expert" who was talking to the ridiculously portrayed detectives. She actually said the following: "The victim was then drug over here." DRUG! No one gets DRUG, they get dragged. Any possible suspension of disbelief I had managed to build up to this point went out the window the minute my inner Grammar Nazi said, "WTF?".
Overall just a really poor film which truly deserves a lower IMDb rating than it possesses. If you're having trouble falling asleep, pop this one in, it'll do the trick.
