    I remember reading that it’s purposely campy. It’s like a parody of second rate horror movies slashers.

      Yeah…a lot of directors say that after the movie comes out and everyone is laughing at it. Gotta save face somehow.

        Nah the opening scene is legitimately funny. The dude’s parents get killed in a car bomb. And instead of showing a car exploding, they just have the text “VFX: Car on fire” where the car used to be. It’s definitely framed as a comedy right from the start.

        Get blazed with some friends before watching it, or turn it into a drinking game. You’ll have a great time. It’s definitely self-aware of how campy it is.
