It’s an especially fun movie from a director and cast who are clearly having a good time allowing themselves to let loose.
If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.
I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.
A low budget Z movie can come up short for a myriad of reasons. I've seen many movies with lower productions quality and worse acting to be sure, but what this video lacks is genuine entertainment. It commits the cardinal sin of any Z movie by not even being enjoyable because of how campy or charming it is. Its a pretty standard haunted house premise with a twist ending. The "scary" parts aren't particularly frightening and even the jump scares fail to deliver. This movie would likely get destroyed if it was ever reviewed on BotW. I truly believe that everyone tried, but it suffered from stale dialogue and a lackluster plot. They were able to finish it and that in and of itself is an accomplishment, but there are almost no memorable lines or scenes.
