I like this much more than I had anticipated.
It is what it is. Vapid teen horror comedy about two girls who want to be social media famous so they kill their classmates. Full of plot holes, predictable, gory. Some laughs, but it’s very teen scream genre. With enough suspension of disbelief it’s enjoyable, albeit shallow. Worth watching once, probably never again.
it's okay. I just like watching trash movies when high or drunk ASF while om this site
It's hard to do the dark-comedy genre. This one is light and breezy and does pretty well with what it wants to achieve. I would recommend the Vince Vaughn "Freaky" if you want the teen/serial killer tongue in cheek slasher movie. The music is what bumped it up to four skulls for me!
I adore this movie! It’s definitely meant to be campy and funny, don’t expect dramatic teen horror like Talk To Me! It’s like Bodies Bodies Bodies, Jennifer’s Body, and 2010s Tumblr rolled into a movie. I’m the same age as the main characters (18 years old in 2017) and this film absolutely nails the vibe. It’s also got a lot of horror references for serious fans. The characters are weird but engaging, the humor is ridiculous in a fun way. If you’re an older Gen Z horror fangirl this film is made for you.
