Death Helper is an organisation that helps whoever wants to kill
oneself to do so in an orderly fashion. Which is why the company drives a
busload of suicidal persons to a remote mansion, where the fun is supposed
to take place. Thing is, one of those in the bus is a serial killer, and
when it comes to killing, he or she doesn't want to leave the fun to
others - so he/she starts killing people, starting with the organizers of
Death Helper, then he/she turns on his suicidal buddies - who soon come to
the conclusion that contemplating suicide is one thing, being chased
through the countryside by a maniacal killer is quite another. Soon, our
group of suicide candidates is down to two, a young woman and a harmless
nerd - when they are suddenly attacked by one of the group who isn't quite
dead. Assuming he's the killer, the woman helps the nerd killing their
attacker in a gruesome fashion. It's only then that she has to find out
the nerd - who hates suicidal people since his mother killed herself
before his very eyes - is the actual killer ... So-so horror
flick that does feature a few macabre scenes, a few tightly directed
chases and a few suspense setpieces - but the whole thing is hampered by a
too far-fetched premise, a too big ensemble cast, and quite a few too many
dialogue scenes that prevent the movie from flowing smoothly.
