This movie is the proof that the world is becoming a sick and dumb place

Ok... Let's be honest. It cannot be the best movie but is quite enjoyable. The movie has the potential to develop a great plot for future movies

There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.

This movie is such a good laugh, it doesnt take itself too seriously and it well worth the watch. Acting is great, music is classic (what's better than Betty Davis Eyes?!) and it has a bit of gore for all you horror lovers.

This film could have been great, I liked the idea and how they were making a tribute to Friday 13th but come on, it's to soft. I've seen more violence and gore in scooby doo, I'm not saying every film has to be a gore fest but if you are making a tribute to the 80's slasher audience how old do you think they are, they are at least in their 40's not teens. If you're gunna do a film go all in not half hearted hoping teenagers will turn up to the cinema, trust me, my cinema is full of adults and I think everyone is getting sick of movies being targeted towards kids.Disappointed

Trying to get over her mothers' death, a teen and her friends agree to attend a screening of her old horror film at a local retrospective only to become trapped within the film itself and must put their knowledge of the film and the genre to get them through the movie and leave alive.For the most part this here was a highly enjoyable and engaging throwback to the slasher films of the past. The fact that this one really manages to nail the genre theme and feel of the camp-set slasher film of the time-period is it's greatest plus here, effectively capturing that atmosphere to it's fullest. The few early parts of the film before their entrance set this in motion rather well by maintaining that tone and feel so that when it turns into the slasher film angle with them involved there's quite a lot more fun to come here. The scenes of them finding the different participants in the camp out in the forest where they witness the first killer ambush and begin interacting with the results gives this a pretty enjoyable expectation for what's to come, and with them being inducted into the group gives this the greatest set-up here for the film's great battles with the killer. Those are far more enjoyable action-packed moments here with the big trap set against him with the different traps set up in the main hall and how he gets past them leading to a set of battles against the killer throughout the cabin as the remaining survivors begin fighting back against the killer in the backroom as well as the upper floors as they bring their traps into full use letting the action go throughout into the last big confrontation at the house that really plays into the emotional trauma storyline that's been building throughout here and especially in the last section. That as well is another big deal in the fact that there's a great deal of work done here to detail that part of story and it comes off far better than expected here without it being detrimental to the pacing which really had the potential to be an issue and really adds a nice depth to this one. With all these added together to the rather nice comedy throughout here, there's quite a lot to like here though there's still a few flaws which does hold this back. The main issue with this one is the fact that it really holds itself back from what it really could've been if only it would've been more willing devote to the comedy potential of it's central premise. The idea of being aware of a movie and then being forced to guide the cast through like what's happening here could've provided this one with a spectacular storyline, but far too much of this one is spent on the mother/daughter relationship, which even though it's great stuff there's a stumbling with the slasher antics as there's very little gore and absolutely no nudity which these usually provide. As well, there's a rather simplistic and ludicrous manner of entering the movie-within-the-movie as the theater accident is way too contrived and comes off without any real explanation for what's going on, leaving it with very little to like about it. Otherwise, this one really had a lot to like.Rated PG-13: Violence, Language, drug use and sexual references.

Sometimes its really hard how viewers rate any movie,how can a movie like this gets such a high rating. Why would the production team spend money on making such movie always,its not funny and its not scary,you don't know if its a horror movie or a comedy or neither one.The acting is horrible as if they are pretending to act,the director could have used this story to make a descent horror movie but who I'm i to judge. When you watch this movie you wonder did they make the killer mask intentionally looking horrible or they thought it looks cool,i don know really,the only good thing about this movie is that i saw it in blue ray quality, other than that i can't recommend this movie to anyone .
