Bordering on parody, but too sleazy to be very funny, this mad slasher film involves a cleaver-wielding psycho who lurks in the halls of a Boston university.

What are critics saying?
The movie manages to luck into that ideal combination of over-the-top bloodshed, gratuitous nudity (of both male and female types, though the latter is, as expected, the mainstage show), and unintentional absurdity for which enthusiasts of the genre are perpetually on the hunt.
CineVue by Christopher Machell
Pieces may not be in the same league as the slasher classics but fans of the genre will find much to enjoy in this knowingly silly exercise in day-glo splatter.
