There
is a swim team at Lakecrest College as
everyone is determined to win the race as
one of them is a steroid drug pusher
named Stevo (Matthew Twinning) to just
get that and become stronger for their
races.
They also party out near a campus lake as
a bunch of harmless leeches seems to
cling on to their bodies and drinks their
steroid-rich blood causing them to grow a
much bigger size.
One of the team members named Tony
(Stephen Sowan) becomes a victim to these
leeches as some people thought that he
died from taking too much steroids apart
from being drunk.
However, these leeches are attacking more
and more people through bushes and others
areas at the campus as they are also
pitted by an evil coach named Foster
(Tony Carroccio) as he has murdered their
campus doctor and can strike at any time
to kill his students as well.
What do you get
out of a DeCoteau flick these
days... Yes lots of pretty faced jocks
undressing and taking showers.
Yet there's more... We have some phony
looking giant leeches that don't look
scary at all like they're supposed to but
yet some of it is laughable so a bit of
entertainment there.
But like most DeCoteau flicks
this plot is extremely weak and
pointless. Watch it for a laugh otherwise
avoid it.
The acting was
quite bad and uninspired but however lead
actor Matthew Twinning seemed to
pull off his steroid pushing part quite
well with his sleazy attitude.
Supporting actor Tony Carroccio does
well with his evil aggressions as a coach
at the school.
There are bloody
marks on people.
Nothing too
thrilling with David Decoteau's
direction for this flick but then again
he never was too memorable with his work
in anything.
Of course he had to have a camera shot
looking up and down on lead actor Josh
Henderson and circling around him
while getting ready to dive in a pool
which is DeCoteau's style on
young jock looking actors these days.
There's some cheesy shots on the cast
partying out near a pond as well as a
good slow motion running shot on both
Henderson and Matthew Twinning with
leeches stuck on their backs.
A cheesy shot on a giant leech slithering
in a shower room along with a shot on
supporting actor Stephen Sowan
taking a shower rubbing himself along
with a good camera shot zooming in on him
unconcious.
Sowan does well by acting sick to his
stomach and then going to the sink and
spitting out a giant leech which looked
gruesome.
There's of course supporting actor
Greg Lyczkowski stripping down to
his underwear with close up shots on all
of him before taking a nap with the giant
leeches slithering towards him.
We have a dialogue with Twinning
trying to push some steroids on Sowan
as it doesn't look too overly
convincing.
A good shot on Sowan drinking
Jack Daniels on a pier before diving into
a pond with a good reaction on him when
leeches attack him.
We spot a nice scene between supporting
actors Tony Carroccio as
a coach at the school along with Julie
Briggs arguing about a deadly
incident on one of the students.
A good shot on some leeches about to
hatch.
We spot a good camera shot on Maya
Parish strutting in the dark and
then looking around worried when she
hears some sounds.
DeCoteau directs a kinky scene
between Charity Rahmer and Henderson
quite bland like. But it does get quite
funny when Henderson is
blindfolded and some leeches come
slithering on him and he seems to get
aroused for a sec.
We spot a good shot on Carroccio tied
up and showing attitude towards the
leeches appraching him with great angered
expressions.
A nice slow motion shot with Michael
Lutz constantly whacking Carrocio.
There's
some cheesy sytnthesizer playing along
with some techno type sounds but yet
there are some good heavy metal guitar
riffs, screechy sound effects and dark
music too which tries to make every scene
seem creepy but of course the story is
way too corny which was all composed by
John Massari.
