Simply mines the same tired, predictable slasher-movie vein.

Runtime: 1 hr 36 mins
Genre: Horror/Suspense
Synopsis:
Once a year, love is in the air and cards, letters, flowers and candy find their way to lovers' doors. But this year something different is coming... something not as pretty and definitely not as...

Reviews for Valentine
Valentine isn't nearly as horrible as the ads would suggest. That's not to say the movie's good, either.
Rehashes the horror genre in an unoriginal and uninvolving way that simply marks its time and body count until the muddled and silly ending.
Frankly, the killer here is doing all of us a favor: eliminate the slow and stupid before they reproduce.
When the big revelations come at the end, they certainly rate an eleven on a Prepostero-Meter with a scale of ten.
Who woulda figured that this movie would be, and I hate to say it... boring!
