I'll admit i didn't really become aware of the Banana Splits until Kick Ass came out. The catchy tune was great so i looked em up. Hearing there was going to be a R rated horror film based on said property? Fuck yes! It is a fun flick that does a great job at introducing the characters in the first act, and killing them off throughout the rest. This is a fucking bloody flick, and an awesome one at that. This is what i wanted Hell Fest to be, it has a great horror vibe the entire time and feels like a "halloween" movie perfect for this time of year, it is a perfect party movie. If you're a fan of Happy, then this is for you as it is basically the Sonny Shine Show, complete with costumed childrens characters kidnapping and killing. I'd love to see more Hanna Barbera properties get this treatment, c'mon a PG 13 Scooby Doo in a legit haunted house? Even throw in a deleted scene for the dvd of Shaggy toking up! Don't go for blood like this did but keep the fun horror vibe.
