It does what it is supposed to do--chills and thrills--and still manages to make its small cast of characters endearing before subjecting them to the razor sharp sickle of a stalker in a devil costume. Set amidst the sexually charged, funky glamor of the annual Halloween Carnival in tres gay West Hollywood, the film has been touted as the first gay slasher movie. I don't know if that's true, or if there has been a general outcry over gays being underrepresented in filmdom's slasher genre, but whatever the case, "Hellbent" is here, and it's done with a certain amount of flair. Director Paul Etheredge-Ouzts knows how to wring a maximum amount of tension from a scene, and he brings a sense of visual excitement to the film, in spite of the occasional clunky dialogue and plot contrivances necessary for any slasher film (i.e., getting characters to go off into dark, isolated areas when they know that there's a murderer on the loose). To be sure, the killer's targets, four friends out for a Halloween night on the town, are not rocket scientists, but each has his own set of quirks and foibles that separate one character from the other, and each one is likeable.
