My Bloody Valentine - the original - is one of perhaps 25 horror movies I give a straight 10/10. Also one of the maybe five movies I own on Blu-ray. Some fun facts to tide people over.

The OG does kick ass. That's what we should watch for Febuary MOTM and something else about love

My Bloody Valentine is a Canadian slasher directed by George Mihalka (Da Vinci’s Inquest TV series) and written by John Beaird (My Bloody Valentine 3-D 2009 – read our retro review here), released on February 11, 1981. The story involves a group of miners who decide to throw their own Valentine’s Day party, but things take a sinister turn… when Harry Warden (Peter Cowper: Oh Heavenly Dog 1980) comes back to Valentine Bluffs to resume his murderous rampage.
My Bloody Valentine is an ’80s slasher that wasn’t on my radar growing up. I didn’t come across the film until I was much older, when I rediscovered my love for slashers. On my first viewing, I really wasn’t sure what to expect. But when the movie was over and the credits started rolling, I felt like I had just unearthed slasher treasure. While I still believe that Bob Clark’s Black Christmas is slasher perfection, My Bloody Valentine comes in right under that classic in second place. So why is My Bloody Valentine held in such high regard among horror fans and horror critics?

it's a great slasher, possibly among the best without a franchise. i'm not sure it goes any further than that.FallandPrayz wrote: ↑Tue Feb 14, 2023 5:59 pm So why is My Bloody Valentine held in such high regard among horror fans and horror critics?

I can only say that I give the film a perfect 10/10, for a lot of reasons, such as memorable characters, atmosphere, story, "The Ballad of Harry Warden," the design of the killer.FallandPrayz wrote: ↑Tue Feb 14, 2023 5:59 pm So why is My Bloody Valentine held in such high regard among horror fans and horror critics?
It's my second-favorite slasher after the OG Halloween, and I just think it's flawless. It's also one of the few movies I own on Blu-ray, which might help in that perception.
