"Guess who's going to be the life of the party?"
A loose and playful take on Agatha Christie's And Then There Were None (a.k.a. Ten Little Indians), Fred Walton's April Fool's Day is quite a fun little anomaly in the slasher sub-genre. With the emphasis placed refreshingly upon mystery rather than explicit violence, this is horror that doesn't leave a sour taste in the mouth, and there is certainly a place for this type of facile, diverting entertainment amongst the genre's more exploitative offerings.
