I’m currently 1:03:51 into this movie as I write this. The retro aesthetic is fine. . but the rest of the movie is just awful. The acting, the writing, the murder scenes. And as an added bonus all the characters are particularly unlikable! I’d skip, but now I’m committed and have to finish this turd.
Loved this comedy take on Halloween and college football, just makes you feel it’s October
Not bad but not even great. 3 skulls is more than enough
I honestly admire the 70's throwback cinematography as done in this movie, the basic concept (a botched execution makes for a good slasher boogeyman origin), and the little bit of humor involved: For example, I thought the bit with the alabama racism at the gas station was funny and clever, even though the meowing is just stupid and seems like a normal real life trope for a group. Overall there's just too much emphasis on the small town banter and hardly anything to hold my interest. I personally like the second one better ("part V") just because there's more of an emphasis on humor, the little girl is a fun character, and there are better kill scenes.
