Super Hot

I watched this after having read nothing but negative reviews, so my expectations were low, but: for a relentlessly low-budget film, carried almost entirely by the inspired performance of lead Kandace Kale (an actor with no apparent internet presence besides this single IMDb credit, a Backstage profile, and- barring a case of mistaken identity- possibly a felony arrest on a California police blotter) this was a refreshingly well-crafted movie.

It starts slow. It ends slow. It suffers from Ready Player One syndrome- it's purportedly about teenagers, but teenagers exclusively interested in the cultural output of (approximately) the mid-1970s to mid-1990s. It seems to be crafted largely around sustaining a cast that is mostly attractive young women, a cast which it frustratingly refuses to exploit gratuitously. The plot itself seems like a bit of an oversight. But it's got a steady, enjoyable rhythm that suits its comedic tone well, and the moments that fall flat are outweighed by those that settle into a satisfying, low-key groove.

In the realm of low budget comedy horrors, this one is slightly above average. It's watchable, the writing wasn't lazy. The acting was fine. I'd say it par is 5, it's just a little better.

This is clearly a low budget film but it had a great sense of humor with decent acting. The dialog is the strongest part with great need references. A fun film with the low quality in mind.

Because they only listed it in the "view all reviews" instead of actually posting it...

I'm going 4 stars on this one... ( Amazon only goes to 5 )

This is clearly a B-rate / indie flick, but that said, this movie has a LOT of really good stuff going for it...

Camera work / Audio / Lighting - easily above par for indie... and actually pretty good Acting - WAY above par ( yes, some of it was cheesy, but I'm 99% sure it was intentionally cheesy... and funny... ) SFX - a little limited, but again, what they did I thought looked really good.

Plot - not really a whole lot new going on here, but it was done differently enough ( and even had a little mini-twist at the end I did not see coming ) that it easily held my attention for the duration...

Bottom line... I thought this movie was a lot of fun. It has some pretty solid quasi-dead-pan style humor, with a little bit of slapstick too... I didn't recognize any of the actors, but between how much they must have practiced, and how well the dialogue was written, they could have fooled me... I honestly don't even feel I'm being generous with giving this 4 stars ( which I sometimes do for indie flicks... ). Pretty solid recommend from me for anyone who enjoys the mix of comedy/horror... Will likely watch it again at some point in the future...

My ranking style - 1 - this movie should never have been made... I probably couldn't even finish it... 2 - this movie was bad, but I made it through to the end... can't recommend.

3 - this movie was ok... I don't feel bad watching it... will probably not watch again.

4 - this movie was solid and did a lot of things right... will very likely watch again.

5 - I need to call my friends right now...

( feel free to read my other reviews... I review a LOT of movies... )

Went in with low expectations and was pleasantly surprised. Solid dialogue and decent acting make up for mediocre SyFy channel special effects. Worth the time. Looking forward to a sequel.
