Exactly what the title says. “The Belko Experiement” except fun with good acting, Samara Weaving slays (literally). “Mayhem” is “Office Space” directed by Edgar Wright with Sam Raimis.
So first this isn’t a horror movie. This is more like the Raid but with a virus attached to it. That being said it was still a fun watch even though it’s a little cheesy. I don’t mind it, it’s a fun Friday night flick that you don’t have to pay too much attention to. I took off one star only because I didn’t find it scary
Very entertaining. I even enjoyed the cheesy parts. Nice and sarcastic. Nicely done.
Salutes flyin out to Steven Yeun and Samara Weaving for committing to this bad script and trying to do right by it, but god this was corny.
It’s a fun movie, not much rewatch value, and there’s another movie that’s based on the same virus concept but way darker. But it was fun
