Grade: B-<\/strong><\/p>\n

All the Boys Love Mandy Lane is an interesting, experimental type horror meets art film from 2006.<\/p>\n

On the surface, it appears to be a by-the-numbers slasher throwback involving a group of teens spending a boozy weekend on a Texas farm, of course, in the middle of nowhere.<\/p>\n

They are systematically offed one by one. This sounds standard, but there are some moody, artistic, beautiful scenes mixed in, hence the horror\/art-house label.<\/p>\n

There is a certain “Texas Chainsaw Massacre” charm to it as well.<\/p>\n

The story, however, makes little sense and the protagonist\u2019s motivations are confusing and never explained, so while adventurous in parts, the film ultimately fails based on the story’s inconsistencies.<\/p>\n

The characters are also rather unlikable, perhaps intentionally so, as these are the characters the audience enjoys seeing hacked to bits.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
