D'angelo and Lo do a decent job as the lesbian drug addicts hiding out after a heist gone terribly wrong. Unfortunately the story is way to thin. It reminded me a lot about Reservoir Dags, only nothing really happens. We first meet the girls as they enter their hideaway and just as in RD the story is told through their conversation and some short flashbacks.
Unfortunately Tarantino isn't involved, so it falls a bit flat. I don't know if the version I saw was edited for TV or not but any sexual action between the females was cut off and nude scenes didn't show anything you don't see in non nude scenes.
It wasn't annoyingly bad, but rather predictable and the only things keeping it from being completely boring was the actresses and the fact that it was really short.

I found this laying around at home. I don't really know why I never got around to watch it before, but probably because I didn't really expect much from it.
I didn't really know who was in it or what it was about, so I more or less expected one of those standard teen slashers. Some of those are good but most are bad. I usually enjoy the bad ones too, but Cherry Falls not only wasn't bad, it wasn't at all what I expected.
It started pretty much like every other in it's genre with a couple of lovebirds getting offed. I won't spoil anything but already here I figured out one of the big "surprises" to be uncovered at the end of the story. If this hadn't been so obvious I would have rated it higher.
I was expecting a standard slasher, but instead I got Scream. Maybe with a little less finesse and a little more like a standard slasher. I don't know if I make any sense or not but it combined humor and horror in a similar way.
The main cast was really good and Brittany Murphy was outstanding. The story was a little bit thin, but funny and weird at the same time. The students arranging a big sex party to save themselves from the psycho virgin killer was a new one, since the psycho killer code usually states those who have sex dies and the "last girl" usually is the virgin.
I can't believe it took me 21 years to discover this.
6/10.
