Strangely recommended to me by a friend to check out I dive into the Shudder exclusive 2019 Porno movie review.
When five teen employees at the local movie theatre in a small Christian town discover a mysterious old film hidden in it’s basement, they unleash an alluring succubus who gives them a sex education… written in blood.
Chastity (Jillian Mueller), Todd (Larry Saperstein), Ricky (Glenn Stott), Heavy Metal Jeff (Robbie Tann), and Abe (Evan Daves) have been given a job to clean and shut up a regular old cinema one Friday night.
Once they have completed their work they are allowed to watch whatever film of their choosing when they’re finished.
Upon discovery of a hidden basement that has been left abandoned for many years they find a film reel and that’s when chaos ensues.
This juvenile and hormone-induced horror film makes light of teenage infatuation with sexual tones running throughout.
This repressed activity and the thought of every young teen up and down the land comes front and centre in this surprisingly entertaining flick.
Starring as a sexy succubus Katelyn Pearce lures these teens to their demise but throughout the film you’re not bored, you’re not rolling your eyes.
The cast is solid and the whole film has a 90’s American Pie / Euro Trip vibe throughout with a horror twist.
Watching a bunch of Christian kids (I may have left that part out) being chased by scantily clad women is rather hilarious and it never gets dull.
I must say the kills in Porno are pretty damn good too.
This is the perfect film to watch in an auditorium where you buzz off the atmosphere around you, cheering for kills, cheering when nude skin is shown, throwing popcorn in the air when an annoying character is brutally murdered.
I love that stuff!
I remember at the Child’s Play premiere in London the atmosphere was electric to the point where the crowd where amplifying how I felt about the movie.
I’m usually the first to tell people to shut up in a cinema but it was a joint experience, a collective of horror nuts and it was absolutely fantastic.
This is exactly the film that would bring the house down in an auditorium.
Porno delivers the second the cursed film has been viewed and it doesn’t relent, it just keeps going and going and refuses to relinquish.
With solid acting and a strange balance between outhouse and adult film it’s a film certainly worth your time.
Porno is available to stream now on Shudder.

Summary
A hormone induced and blood-soaked experience that deserves your attention.
