I’m still a little conflicted on the Aussie slasher I Know How Many Runs You Scored Last Summer (out now on DVD from Celebrity). I can see it being a film that will have its devotees, and those fans may hype the flick to the point where others who see it may be left feeling a little deflated that it wasn’t all it was cracked up to be. It’s certainly not a bad film by any means and has some impressive aspects, though it didn’t create a feeling of elation either.

The title is quite misleading, as one could easily think the movie’s a broad comedy poking fun at the slasher genre, when it’s actually much more straight horror than comedy. There are one-liners and the central gimmick is a bit silly, but overall the jokes are subtle and while the gore is fun,...

Every now and again we get the chance to give you guys something you can't get anywhere else. This is one of those times. The trailer for I Know How Many Runs You Scored Last Summer hit the web a while back but had to be edited because of offensive material. Here at Dread Central we thrive on offensive material, and we also know that our readers can handle a little crazy.

As a result we are proud to bring you not just the uncut trailer for the film but an exclusive and completely re-cut trailer that features more of the objectionable content that had other sites throwing a hissy-fit.

The film directed by Stacey Edmonds and Doug Turner tells the tale of a cricket team who are dismissed by a mustachioed serial killer with a razor sharp cricket glove and an arsenal of sharpened stumps. One by one the...

No doubt because the fans demanded it, the world can now bask in the glory of the first ever cricket themed comedy horror in the form of “I Know How Many Runs you Scored Last Summer”. The Australian film marks the feature debut of husband and wife team Doug Turner and Stacey Edmonds, who had previously worked together on a number of shorts. Having played Fright Fest, the film now comes to DVD via Anchor Bay, hoping to find its niche as a wacky slice of genre savvy fun. Appropriately enough, the plot is basic slasher fodder, as a group of friends are knocked off one by one by a moustachioed psychopath dressed in cricketer’s togs and armed with an ingenious array of homicidally modified cricket equipment. As is usually the case, the killer’s rampage has been inspired by a past wronging, in this case by having been...

I Know How Many Runs You Scored Last Summer is - get this - a cricket-themed slasher movie. Stacey Edmonds directed along with Doug Turner, and the movie lands on DVD from Anchor Bay Entertainment June 3 in Australia, June 29 in the UK, and June 30 in the States and Canada.

If you thought The Ashes represented the ultimate grudge match between English and Australian cricketers, then think again. This time the game is not only personal, it’s also deadly and the biggest test is to stay alive. Edmonds and Turner’s hilarious and bloody movie puts an irreverent, parodic spin on slasher conventions as well as introducing a unique serial killer who won’t finish his “over” until all his victims are permanently dismissed...

Full of knowing nods to many slasher classics and featuring bucketloads of blood and gore, I Know How Many Runs You Scored Last Summer is a...
