8/10
Meta!
24 June 2021
Meta: they say it multiple times in the movie. The low score must be from tightly puckered horror fans angry that it got tagged as a "horror" and not a "comedy-horror." It is not a horror.... it is a comedy with a few horror elements (most of which are, appropriately not scary at all). I especially loved the irony of the clearly intentional dialogue juxtaposed against the characters' complete obliviousness. Very self aware, great horror "stereotype" characters, fun over the top winks at found footage films ("Can you stop shaking the camera, please? You're making me nauseous!"), and the "clever and original" writing is more cliche than the initial drivel the actors didn't want to film in the first place. Kudos to this Covid film! I belly laughed multiple times.... a very fun accidental find on a Wednesday afternoon :)
