People have said this was basically a cheap Terrified knock off. I get that comparison but I also don't think the Terrifier was so original as to completely avoid movies coming out after it from getting that treatment. The storyline is fine, albeit flawed, hilariously at times (i.e., the killer was accidentally released from the psych ward newscaster of a clerical error). The writing was pretty awful and the acting was the dane. The lead actress was actually decent, especially compared to everyone else. The technical aspects were pretty awful; scene transitions were often clunky, the shots seemed to change aspect ratio randomly but not by way of lense changing so much as bad DV editing resulting in people appearing smashed. Very weird. The most intolerable part though was the sound editing and rubbish. It just didn't make sense and was mixed poorly so it airways drew your attention away from the action. All that said, I found some enjoyment in this, especially for being so low budget. Same character and general "universe" but with the above issues addressed I would even say it's passable.
These are supposed to be 14yo kids but they all clearly are adults and conduct themselves as such. How with them being 14 does it not raise alarm when the writers choose to focus on romantic relationships and sexuality? I get the actors are like 30 but isn't that like illegal to fantasize about as these writers clearly are? Like it's not creepy because some mysteries pop up or something? Like hey, here are a bunch of kids screwing each other but don't worry because.... mystery or something. Just super off-putting, weird and jarring. Also just not interesting but high production quality so 4 stars I guess.
