Solstice (2007): This starts out like a traditional slasher movie with a set of teen couples heading off to the bayou for a fling. However, it soon degenerates into a standard ghost story and misses multiple opportunities for serious gore and nekkidity This is the first time in quite a while unchaperoned teens get though a full length ‘B’ movie without taking their clothes off, engaging in unprotected sex, and losing multiple body parts. It has some familiar red herrings such as the friendly country store clerk and the reclusive gnarly old red neck rustic. Apparently one of the teens seems to be haunted by a spirit and most of the movie shows their activities to come to grips with it and to unravel the mystery surrounding the supernatural activity. However, it takes a full three days to get to the big finish and not a lot of activity happens so it tends to be a bit slow. However, it is professionally done and if you like to see lots of interior shots of a bayou mansion and lots of swampy exteriors, Solstice just might be for you. The movie spooked a PG-13 rating for: massive mud holes, mud plumbing, mud belching, bear traps, massive talking, finger nail splitting, and for the lack of any serious bleeding throughout the movie.
