Nude Celebs: Lindsey McKeon - Sporting what may be the best goof on a popular tag line in recent years, (“Icy Dead People!”), Shredder as a movie is, unfortunately, no where near as clever as its marketing. An almost completely typical slasher picture, this time your usual cast of attractive-yet-unlikable teens hole up in an abandoned ski resort where someone is making mince meat of trespassers. Lots of violent deaths and tease-a-plenty skin scenes ensue, all made palatable by a sometimes wry sense of humor and some rather good acting by the leads. Most notable are the efforts of gorgeous Lindsey McKeon and Holly Towne who, while being easy on the eyes, also manage to bring their characters to life despite the screenplay’s best efforts to keep them cartoon-like.
Alas, even the best acting couldn’t save a movie that ends like this one. If you’re going to see it, see it for the ladies and some of the inventive (and rather gory) kill sequences. Don’t even try to consider the plot, or else you’ll end up rather disappointed. Such a shame as the direction and editing are really quite good for this genre.
