David L The late ’90s and early 2000s saw a major resurgence of the slasher genre, kicked off by Wes Craven’s classic Scream. Among the wave of slashers that followed was Valentine (2001), a film that I think is one of the most underrated entries of the era—and it just so happens to be set around my favorite holiday (and birthday), Valentine’s Day. The story begins with a flashback to a middle school Valentine’s Day dance, where an awkward, nerdy boy works up the courage to ask several popular girls to dance. Each cruelly rejects him, and when one girl falsely claims he assaulted her, a group of bullies viciously beats him, leaving him humiliated. Fast-forward 13 years, and those same girls are being hunted down one by one by a trench coat–wearing killer in a chilling Cupid mask. Before each murder, the victims receive threatening Valentine’s cards, tying the holiday theme cleverly into the horror. Valentine delivers some creative, holiday-inspired kills, a creepy villain design, and a story with enough twists and turns to keep you guessing until the end. If you’re looking for a solid slasher with a unique Valentine’s Day spin, this overlooked gem is definitely worth checking out. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 10/02/25 Full Review Kash M It was an interesting movie, the time passed quickly I must say. The ending had a twist that really didn't make sense at all, unless Adam blamed it on J.M or was undercover. There was a few details that made some parts of it make no sense, as one falling through the poster directly down but then bumping into the emergency exit. Nonetheless, it was an entertaining movie! Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 09/12/25 Full Review thiago s Filme bacaninha, o roteiro é mais ou menos, as cenas de terror são bacaninhas, a história é bacaninha, o elenco é bacaninha, e alguns ajuda a melhorar o filme, os personagens são mais ou menos, e o filme deveria ter cenas bem melhores e relevantes, perto do final do filme, foi revelado que dorothy era o assassino que ela estava com a roupa do assassino, mas foi revelado que Adam era o verdadeiro assassino, por que saiu sangue do nariz dele igual ao do assassino que quando matava as suas vítimas, saia sangue do nariz do assassino, com tudo isso, eu meio que recomendo esse filme. Rated 1.5/5 Stars •  Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 06/11/25 Full Review Farah R Although not as bad as the low ratings and terrible reviews make it seem, Valentine is still a mediocre slasher that’s only good to waste a couple of boring hours. Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 04/22/25 Full Review Andrew H Valentine isn’t a good film, but it’s endlessly watchable. The plot’s obvious; the twist lands like a brick on a pillow, and every actor looks monumentally bored. Seriously, you can see them thinking about lunch as they act—but that’s the charm. It’s glossy, cheesy, and totally of its time. The killer design is fantastic, the mood is weirdly hypnotic, and it nails that “so bad it’s good” sweet spot. Urban Legend, also directed by Jamie Blanks, might be technically better—snappier script, better acting, more energy—but Valentine hits differently. It’s a boring, beautiful mess… and I love it for that. Though let’s be clear, Urban Legend was a better movie. It's an outstanding double bill, though Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 04/11/25 Full Review Stanny R Fine 00s aesthetic throwback. The film is fairly predictable and suffers from weak, fairly lazy writing and bad characters we’re supposed to care about. Denise Richards is good of course as is the special makeup department as there’s a few decent kills. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 09/07/24 Full Review Read all reviews
