Not to be confused with the classic horror-comedy April Fool's Day from 1986, this turd takes the same name but does little similar except attempt to play increasingly unlikely and tasteless stunts in the name of April Fool's Day...which was a forced coincidence in this film and completely ridiculous.
The movie's story revolves around a throng of extremely unlikable people. Not only are they lacking in charisma, but they are lacking each in completely stereotypical ways; coupled with their clearly fake accents and embarrassingly overacted flimsy characterisations, it's a total joke from the beginning.
The least likable one of all dies first, so at least you don't have to endure her terrible acting and embarrassingly stupid character pastiche for long, but the rest of the film is spent watching the obnoxious remainder of the cast not quite get killed off. In fact, pretty much the only remotely likable character is the only other one that dies, leaving the thoroughly reprehensible supporting characters completely without any sort of consequences for what they did...which, I might add, would have made the case a complete mistrial rather than some sort of victory for them.
The whole thing is implausible to the utmost degree, especially with so many things dependent upon things happening or not happening that realistically would have been far too random to predict. So really, all those people would have totally gone along with the script written by one of the biggest heels of the group? And none of them would have mentioned that even if through some miracle they did manage to extort a confession that it wouldn't be admissible as evidence but instead implicate each and every person involved in a conspiracy to torment and murder? The pat resolution doesn't cut it. This film's flimsy script defies any real reason, as well as openly flaunts its first draft status.
If you want to see an actual good film, watch the 1986 original April Fool's Day. It's a bittersweet film about life, humour, friends, and the end of one era and the beginning of another. This sad excuse for a film simply steals the name and tells a tale of ridiculous stupidity and incompetence that isn't even worth sitting through.
Complete garbage! Don't waste your time.
