April Fool's Day (1986)

April Fool's huh? Guess the jokes on me, because at the end of this movie, I felt like someone had just blasted that phrase through a megaphone directly into my skull. April Fool's!! You just sat and watched 90 minutes of dumb annoying teen characters, wretched dialogue, zero gore, and even worse in a slasher flick...zero naked chicks! To celebrate their release into the "real world" a bunch of college grads are invited by their friend Muffy to party down at her place. Muffy resides in a big ass mansion which, of course, is located on a secluded island. Also, might I add, the perfect place for disposing of annoying cardboard characters. Unknown to her college chums however, Muffy has taken the liberty to rig the place with various harmless booby traps in honor of April Fool's Day. You know, exploding cigars, collapsing chairs, and the occasional dead body popping up here and there. Only problem is, no one laughs at the dead bodies, and everyone is left waiting for the next (fatal) joke to be played on them. To bad the filmmakers never really tried to include any type of suspense, and anyone with a half functioning brain can see the ending a mile away. The pacing of this flick was also so damn slow and tedious I found myself nodding off several times, of which I rarely do. The gore quotient was also non-existent, this one could have easily aired on cable t.v. with no cuts (well, except maybe for the missing penis gag). You WILL feel like an April Fool after watching this, trust me.
