Valentine is a thriller, which I found had particularly effective way to engage the audience. I particularly enjoyed the storyline and the symbolic qualities the film possessed.
The opening to the thriller is very effective, setting that sweet quiet scene allows the audience to become comfortable and are then shocked by the blackness that swifts across the screen. This transistion to the valentine's dance works very well and the fading in and out during this flash back allows us to know this is maybe a flash back and in the past.
On Valentine's Day, best friends Kate, Paige, Dorothy and Lily are terrified when they begin receiving violent anonymous threats. They soon learn that the stalker is Jeremy Melton -- a nerdy boy they mercilessly tormented years ago in junior high. Since then Jeremy has really come into his own. Now that he's a hunk with magnetic sex appeal, he devises a deadly and bloody plot for revenge against his teenage tormentors.
