Clever metahorror, genuinely funny script, A+ performances, clearly underappreciated but very influential to genre subversions like CITW

This is such a great and original idea for a horror movie! One of the best written indie films I’ve seen in a long time.

A great knowing wink to horror fans. A few genuine laughs, worth a watch for something different.

Fantastic twist on both the serial killer/slasher and mockumentary genre. Clever, tongue in cheek, high points for originality.
