REVIEW:Leaf Blower Massacre

I'd like to start this review by saying Thank you to Anthony Cooney for sending me this and The Dirty Sanchez for review. It has resparked my interest in why I started this in the first place so hopefully more reviews and updates of my own films will be more frequent. Now onto the reason we're here. 

Leaf Blower Massacre. With a title like that how could I not want this in my collections? And to be honest,the packaging alone is incredible. The title screen itself is just beautiful. And the disk is loaded with special features including 2 other shorts "expired" and "the walking retard",audio commentary and 4 trailers. I've literally already said all these great things so far and we haven't gotten to the film yet!

I'm a sucker for anything with the word Massacre in the title,and this 12 minute gem is no exception. The 1980's will never be topped in the horror world. Everything that came out was gold,even if it was complete shit (satans blade,I'm looking at you buddy.),and leaf blower massacre feels like it could have,and should have been from that time frame. Obviously Nailgun Massacre was the main source of inspiration here. Blatantly,and loving plagiarism abound with the killer. AND IT. IS. AWESOME. anytime you get a fat guy screaming like a little girl and people losing teeth,I'm a fan. But the overal concept is just so totally unfuckingbelievable that there's seriously ZERO chance it could be bad. The dialog is so cheesy it made me lactose intolerant,the ode to leatherface at the end of Texas chainsaw massacre,the random boomhauer character. It's just so many cliches and bad decisions in such a short time and amazingly they made it work in a way that will go down as nothing short of legendary. A sequel is in the works,which I believe and hope will be full length and take all the things in this scant runtime to new heights. Hit up the Leafblower Massacre Facebook to get a copy of this and updates on the sequel. 

Gore score-6/10

Acting-3/10

Dialog-6/10

Any gorehound needs to see this short,ridiculous slice of homegrown nostalgia. It's called Leaf Blower Massacre for Christ sakes,what more could you want?!
