I recently watched WW84, and this was better than that. I mean, I'm sure the budget was small, but the effects weren't terrible. The plot was actually somewhat original. It was campy. It was clearly supposed to be campy, though, so yeah, good stuff. Some of the characters were actually quite good, and the acting was good enough for this kind of movie. I may even watch it again.

Low budget, over the top, modern, stylized, somewhat frenetic, a little bit forced. Gratuitous nudity, pointedly incongruous score of largely comprised of electronic music (yes, dubstep), wholly overt but admittedly fun costume design. There's a lot going on in 'Slay belles,' and not only is it decidedly ham-fisted, but it's such an intentionally ridiculous slice of low-grade cinema that calling it a B-movie may be a bit generous. With all that said, it's also beyond question that all the inelegance (subjective and objective alike) is by design. This movie has no illusions about being anything it's not, so all that's left as a viewer is to decide whether or how much we enjoy it. For my part, I recognize this is undoubtedly an acquired taste, but I think it's a fair bit of fun. It's gratifying that Krampus actually looks really great - I'm hardly used to creatures in features like this being even halfway decent, but here we are. Why, garish as the production generally is, everything is executed surprisingly well. From rounding details like hair, makeup, blood, gore, and special effects, to more prevalent technical aspects like direction, set decoration, filming locations, or sound design, there was an unexpected level of care put into this film. There's some definite wit and intelligence in the screenplay - dialogue, scene writing, the connection between Santa and Krampus; even the overall plot takes a turn or two I didn't anticipate. Action scenes look great, and 'Slay belles' delivers a few solid laughs along with the broad entertainment. I don't think there's anything especially remarkable about the acting, but all on hand perform admirably to bring the ridiculousness to life. That does mean a lot of chewing of scenery, and typical horror reactions of screaming, yet every now and again the cast are allowed to demonstrate a measure of their skills, and it's clear that given the opportunity, they'd prove themselves quite capable. This is hardly going to be for everyone. I've seen other small-time horror movies with far worse production quality, but that doesn't mean this is perfect. More to the point, so much of the bombast is blunt and forthright to an extent that is surely off-putting for a lot of viewers. Whether it's the acting, stylization, music, or something else, there are a lot of elements here that walk a fine line. Still, this is a picture that knows exactly what it wanted to be, and in every way that matters, I think it very well succeeded. Anyone who appreciates silly, violent, independently produced horror comedy is likely to have a good time here. It's no exemplar of the genre, but very suitably enjoyable all the same. One needn't necessarily go out of their way to find 'Slay belles,' but it's a "jolly" good time if you come across it.

Slay Belles: it's clever because 'Slay' sounds like 'Sleigh' and 'Belles' sounds like 'Bells'. Unfortunately, that's about as clever as this film gets. It's dumb. It's very dumb. But sadly, it's not dumb fun. The humour is extremely forced and rarely hits the mark. The cast are enthusiastic enough, but comedy clearly isn't their forté and the script just isn't witty enough despite a potentially amusing premise. The plot sees Alexi (Kristina Klebe) joining her big-breasted friends, urban explorers Dahlia (Susan Slaughter) and Sadie (Hannah Minx ), on a trip to abandoned theme park Santaland, where they intend to record their latest Adventure Girl web cast. What they don't realise is that they are not alone: the 'Christmas Devil' Krampus is on the prowl for naughty people, making the trespassing girls potential victims. Luckily for them, the real Santa Claus (Barry Bostwick) is also there to help them stay alive. Director Dan Walker takes a gimmicky approach to his film-making, with novelty graphics and 'stylish' (i.e., annoying) editing, which is bad enough, but add in horrible wobbly camerawork and some really dark night-time scenes, and the result is a film that is not only nowhere near as funny as it could have been, but which is also fairly grating on the nerves. Walker should have compensated with plenty of gore, but barring the death of Sadie's boyfriend Brian (Rich Manley), there's not much splatter to speak of. The film's pros are as follows: impressive opening credits, one reasonable monster, one gore effect, one passable performance (from Bostwick), two big pairs of * (one pair getting a brief airing). The cons: bad acting, bad camerawork, bad comedy, too many dark scenes, inappropriate use of dubstep music, not enough blood and guts, and no gratuitous shower scene for Sadie. 3.5/10, rounded up to 4 for... well, it's Christmas... I'm feeling generous.

If you want a fun Christmas horror/comedy movie this is a great pick. This slay was a smooth ride all the way through. Reminds me of the campy movies of the 80s that a lot of people still enjoy. The acting was spot on and not too over the top. Ive enjoyed a few of these actors in other movies as well. There really wasn't a dull moment. Id put this in my collection of movies to watch again, no regrets in watching this. Thanks for an enjoyable movie experience!

Heading out on an adventure, a group of girls breaking into a supposed abandoned Christmas-themed amusement park find that their actions have inadvertently released the evil Krampus from being locked away and must team up with the real Santa Claus to stop the creature and restore the holidays. This one proved to be quite an enjoyable effort. Among the more entertaining features is the highly immersive and over-the-top spirit the film has. The introduction here to the girls with their pace-paced lives being lived out online as their wild, reckless and carefree attitude as they run around filming everything gives us a great introduction to them. The scenes of them hanging out at the park doing their usual shenanigans has a lot of fun to it, which is carried out throughout the rest of the film as the goofy sense of off-kilter fun which dominates the film overall. From the concept of Santa masquerading as a swearing, filthy biker to keep an eye on the world to the constant cutbacks to their social media uploads documenting everything and the lack of urgency to the situation, there's plenty of fun to be had with the general setup here. As well, there's plenty of over-the-top fun to be had with the creature attacks. Opting for a purely practical suit-driven creature that looks imposing and impressive, the Krampus scores nicely in the series of attacks and confrontations not only with the girls in the park but also the other children in its rampage. The chasing around the abandoned theme park before meeting Santa, the side encounters on the few family's it comes across and the girls' first attempt at confining the creature before taking it back to the shop where they begin playing with it and decorations of Christmas ornaments for their site offers a great combination of high-energy action, brutality and even goofy comedy in their reactions. There's also the frenzied and fun finale that offers a solid twist with solid and surprising action, giving this one plenty to like about it. There wasn't a whole lot really wrong with this one. The biggest issue is the film's lack of explaining anything as this one favors the fun, fast-paced action rather than going into detail on anything. The release of the Krampus and what happened to it while it was being kept away for decades isn't explained, while the last half's revelation twist about several of the characters just seems thrown together to add a last-second swerve to the action. These could've been explained better had the film decided to do something more in the middle half than trying numerous attempts at convincing the girls of his true identity, causing a drop-off in the action that goes hand-in-hand with the go-nowhere subplot about the overworked police station where nothing is happening. Some of the scenes look awful with the shaking camera or being too dark to see anything, but otherwise, there isn't a whole lot to dislike here. Rated Unrated/R: Extreme Graphic Language, Graphic Violence and Brief Nudity.

Well I sat down to watch the 2018 movie "Slay Belles" to sort of warm up to the Christmas season that is about to kick off. I thought it might actually be a fun way to lay the ground for all the sugar-coated and candy-sweet Christmas movies that will be coming at us like a tsunami in the coming month. And when I saw that Barry Bostwick was in it, I must admit that I was actually having some hopes for the movie. However, turned out that not even someone as iconic as Barry Bostwick to salvage this sinking movie project. Wow, this movie was definitely not my cup of tea at all. Why? Well first of all, the storyline was just rubbish. I have no idea what writers Jessica Luhrssen and Dan Walker were thinking when they concocted the script for "Slay Belle". Maybe it seemed interesting on paper, but it lost all its luster and appeal in the transition to the screen. The acting in the movie was atrocious, downright bad. Sure, Barry Bostwick managed to keep his own and stand firm, but he was just dragged down by some questionable and dubious performances from the majority of the cast. Now, it wasn't all bad mind you. The krampus creature was actually nicely made, and it looks very interesting. I definitely did like what the special effects department had managed to do there. But it just wasn't enough to make up for a total lack of proper storyline and script. This is by no means a Christmas classic, nor is it a movie that I will be returning to watch a second time. My rating of "Slay Belles" is a mere three out of ten stars. It really isn't worth the time, effort or money.

I went into this film not knowing what to expect. The best I can tell you is that it is a FUN film-watching experience. It's hilarious, it's sexy, and it's creepy. It's an homage to horror movies, holiday movies, and the horror community. It has something for everyone. You got a biker Santa battling Krampus with 3 hot chicks helping him out. What movie is there to say?
