“April Fool’s Day” is an unconventional slasher flick yet it’s still abysmal. This is easily one of the most boring movies to ever have been created. It’s not a long movie but it feels like a real endurance test. It makes the original “Friday The 13th” look moderately entertaining by comparison.

A group of university students stay at a house belonging to their friend, Muffy (Deborah Foreman “Real Genius”, “Valley Girl”). Everybody is out to pull pranks on one another but is somebody taking the festivities too far? Dead bodies are piling up but nothing is at it first appears.

The characters in this movie are some of the worst I’ve ever encountered. Even by horror film standards they are excruciatingly bland. None of them are likeable and none of them are even tolerable. I wanted somebody to come and kill them all just so I didn’t have to spend another minute with these absolute losers. The revelations about some of the characters are not remotely impressive. Among the cast, you may even recognise Thomas F. Wilson from the “Back To The Future” franchise. I don’t imagine that many people come up to him and ask him about “April Fool’s Day” though.

“April Fool’s Day” has a twist ending that has become notorious because it feels cheap. Fans of slasher films are likely to be very disappointed by this movie because there is hardly any gore and the whole thing is just a mess. There is a whole mystery to solve but I had virtually switched off so I didn’t care about any of it. I literally cannot think of any reason to watch it and I cannot think of a demographic that would actually enjoy this mundane flick. Seriously, go and watch almost any other slasher film and you will find something of more value.
