Review #338: Easter Bunny, Kill! Kill! (2006)
October 2025 Holiday Horror Review #11 - Easter Bunny, Kill! Kill! (2006)
Can I just review Easter Casket again instead of this one?
Easter Bunny, Kill Kill was a deeply uncomfortable movie to watch. I'm just gonna get that right out there. It's a no-budget movie shot on cheap video with virtually nothing going for it. I know I gave Easter Casket a lot of guff for its low production value but at least that movie was fun to laugh at; I can't say the same about Easter Bunny Kill Kill.
Let me try and get through the plot. EBKK starts off with a character named Remington (I can't really call him the protagonist, because we aren't meant to root for him, but he certainly gets the most screentime) as he robs a convenience store and kills the clerk. He then tries to lay low by insinuating himself into the home of his girlfriend, a single mother named Mindy, and her son Nicholas. Nicholas is sixteen years old but severely mentally challenged, and obsessed with Easter ever since his father was killed on Easter (?) ten years ago and Nicholas is convinced he's just gone and will come back some day. Nicholas is friendly to a vagrant who gives him a pet rabbit (that he has to keep a secret from his mother), but Remington finds out and uses it to blackmail Nicholas to keep his misdeeds secret from Mindy.
Mindy then has to work a double shift on Easter, so Remington agrees to watch Nicholas, but uses the opportunity to set up a "Easter party" with hookers and cocaine, while inviting one of his friends- a physically disabled child molester- to come and date rape Nicholas. But before any of these party guests can do their thing, a bunny-masked figure shows up and starts killing off all of these bad people, and in the end it's revealed that it's Mindy (though it's not entirely clear why she did it in disguise instead of stopping the whole nonsense at the start by just killing Remington). And if that wasn't enough of a twist, the vagrant that gave Nicholas his pet rabbit reveals himself to be Nicholas' father, whom Mindy thought she killed after he abused her (but somehow he survived and stuck around nearby for ten years). He apologizes and now they all get to be a happy family I guess.
As I said earlier, this movie is deeply uncomfortable to watch. About 60% of the runtime is Remington shouting slurs, 30% is Nicholas' actor doing a caricature of what he thinks a mentally disabled person looks and sounds like, and maybe 10% of it was worthwhile plot and action. All of it goes on for way too long, the plot is needlessly convoluted, EVERY character in here is unlikable, and so much of the subject matter is just plain disgusting. (Remington's child molester friend has a couple lines that made me feel ill just listening to it.) The video quality is bad, the sound quality is bad, and I just don't know what the point of this movie was.
There was one actor in this movie I recognized (and in fact I noticed he was credited as producer when I was choosing this month's films): Trent Haaga, the actor who plays the vagrant/dad. I remembered him as the wanker-canker guy from Mulva: Zombie Ass Kicker- on one hand if that's the type of movies this guy is associated with I shouldn't be surprised that this was such an offensively-made film, but also, he was a producer for the movie Dead Girl, which (while also being a disgusting movie in a lot of ways) at least looked like a real movie, and had something to say about the world and its characters. I don't know what Easter Bunny Kill Kill is trying to say other than that it's okay to abuse mentally disabled teens.
Don't watch this movie. Even among the bad films I've seen there are much better options.
Overall Rating: 1/10 Bunnies That Want Nothing To Do With This Movie
Bunny Facts: A rabbit's teeth grow continuously throughout its life, similar to human fingernails. To keep their teeth from getting too long and causing health issues, they need a constant supply of fibrous hay, which helps to grind them down naturally. Also, a happy rabbit will often perform a "binky," which is a unique combination of a jump and a twist in the air. This is a clear sign of contentment and joy!
