Bloodlust!

(1961) *1/2

Here's one for Octo's subgenre of movie titles that end with an exclamation point. It's also part of a couple other fun subgenres: movies that got reused as fodder for MST3K; cheap B-movies featuring young stars before they became famous (Robert Reed!); and movies based on the story the Most Dangerous Game (seriously, there have been like 20 movies based on the story).

If you're not familiar with that story, it's the one about the big game hunter who has an island mansion where he lures unsuspecting humans to serve as his game. In this iteration, a group of 4 cheery high schoolers get trapped on the island and are forced into playing the role of prey.

One of the fun weaknesses of this one is the weird tone coming from the 4 kids--even after all sorts of weird and (supposedly) scary shit has happened, they're still pretty unfazed and perky like they've just left the set of Beach Blanket Bingo. "Can I just say one more time. I'm scared," one girl says with absolutely no earnestness at all while reflecting on her boyfriend being lost in the jungle, hunted by a guy with a crossbow.

There's some more mockable stuff, but I'm not sure this is quite bad enough to fall into the so-bad-it's-good category. I think you might need the help of the added wit of the MST3K guys to really make this one a worthwhile comedy. Still, for completists of the Robert Reed canon, this is obviously a must!
