The Video Nasties Reviewed- Section 3- Day 38- Honeymoon Horror (1982)

A small hotel has just opened on Love Island (!) that is specifically aimed at newly weds and couples madly in love. But guests are going missing and are being found butchered. How is this happening?

Oh boy. Another dull as dishwater slasher movie with characters who are only one step away from cardboard cutouts, an almost non-existent plot, very little actual horror (there’s way too much stuff about the couples and way too many scenes of them in bed) and terrible comic relief (that’s about as funny as smallpox) from a couple of bumbling cops (Last House, anyone?!) One female character has a Cockney accent so bad that even Dick Van Dyke would recoil in disgust.

I worry about horror fans who watch only slasher movies as they will have to wade through hundreds of anaemic titles like this for every Halloween.

This also must have been placed on Section 3 as a Video Nasty as it was so mind numbingly bad.
