Varsity Blood

About This Movie

Varsity Blood is one of those slasher flicks that leans heavily into the high school horror tropes. You’ve got the classic group of jocks and cheerleaders, all gathered at a farmhouse for a Halloween party that spirals into chaos. The killer, dressed as their school mascot, brings this playful yet sinister vibe that hangs over the film. The pacing's pretty brisk, which keeps the tension simmering nicely. It has a raw edge with practical effects that remind you of the golden days of slasher films. Performances range from passable to surprisingly engaging, especially for a 2014 flick. It has that atmosphere of youthful recklessness mixed with dread, making it a unique entry in the genre.
