12/05/2021 More explicitly queer than Jennifer's Body, but also more male gaze-y than Jennifer's Body. See more 10/19/2021 Directed and written by Lucky McKee (May) and Chris Sivertson (I Know Who Killed Me) in 2001 — then remade in 2013 — All Cheerleaders Die is about the very dangerous world of cheerleading which takes its first victim early as one of the girls — the subject of a documentary — is killed when she isn't caught in time. Maddy, who was filming that documentary, joins the team and begins a series of machinations that leads to the accidental death of the entire team. Using magic, she brings them back to life and they begin getting their revenge. What I liked about this movie is that it promises what guys have always gotten out of horror movies — attractive women being killed or doing the killing — but it subverts expectations and makes its viewers confront that very same objectification. Plus, that moment in the woods, where the villainous Terry confronts the girls? That feels like real tension. I kinda wish they'd make the teased sequel already. See more 05/08/2020 There's a lot of fun to be had here, with the girls gaining their powers and some of the hijinks that ensue. It's overall too much of a goofy cartoon though, with the supernatural mumbo jumbo. I get that they're probably trying to subvert the genre with this stuff, but it just comes off kind of juvenile. The girls are a lot of fun though. See more 03/24/2019 Just awful. One review I read of this movie said that it subverts the genre by mocking the movies that simply objectify the women and give cheap scares, whilst simultaneously doing exactly that. Regardless of its moral intentions, this film is a real failure. See more 04/17/2018 This movie is ridiculous and has a lot of issues. I don't mind a bit of mindless fun here and there, but this movie had a hard time finding its groove. It is ultimately forgettable, but I don't regret watching it.

Also the film is just way to incredibly convenient to be believable, and yes, while movies aren't always supposed to be realistic, this one is stretching it in the magical pony department See more Read all reviews
