Butcher Boys (2012)
4/10
Stop the fake reviews, below average movie at best
21 October 2023
It seems like they are quite a few fake reviews under this movie from what I have read. Many compared it to the Texas Chainsaw Massacre movies and I do have to say that there are similar scenes, but this movie is not nearly as good as those quality-wise. Maybe as good as one of the bad sequels and I'm not talking about the second one, which was good in it's own way.

It starts off by 4 friends driving around in their car at night. The drivers girlfriend Barbie is a really unlikeable person and he seems to be turned on by her bad girl behavior. On the backseat a young woman named Sissy and her brother are sitting, she is disgusted by the behavior of Barbie but her brother seems to like it as well. After Barbie starts beefing with two guys at a gas station they start chasing them and during their chase they run over a dog that seemed to belong to a gang of cannibals. And apparently these cannibals have so much power over the city that not even the cops want to mess with them. After some time they get caught by the gang and now the fight for survival begins.

The movie is pretty dark and a lot of the scenes are really chaotic and absurd. We follow Sissy as she tries to escape from the hands of these cannibal gang members and there she encounters some weird characters, some bad and some not so bad. Also the movie ends really abrupt and the ending in general is pretty random and made me laugh. I wouldn't say that the movie was really entertaining or had many qualities to it, some viewers might enjoy it if they are into this kind of thing but I think this movie could be skipped without a regret. [4,4/10]
