O Clube de Leitores Assassinos

They have put in money and muscels in this spanish slasher, but left out ideas and charm , its actually boring to watch , and most of all, the "clown" look corky , and not because they want it , they want a creepy clown , but it didnt work out that well

If I describe this movie with one word, its annoying,,, the movie is annoying,, the acters are annoying and even the killer is annoying, you just want them all dead cause they are so annoying , the final girl are the worst and cause she will be to the end, I reached for the remote controll

Acting is more horrible than the movie, but sure , they have really tried to do a good slasher , but its just not that good and most of all I think its hard to invent the wheel twice, this movie have been 100 of times before allready, we have seen this to often.

The Horror aspect is okay. With a big drop of in the end. And the look of the movie is most of the time not to bad.

The setting seams promising and gives you the vibe of classics like scream. But the movie fails du deliver on that promise, and ends to be a really bland and uncreative movie. Its just a compilation of old and bad cliche, executed even worse.

With characters that stupid you can't stand this movie and you want to turn it off.

After watching the movie I have to say, one of the worst movies I have seen in a long time. Wasted potential, because you get the feeling, there would have been a fun story to be told in this giant mess. Nothing original or new, but atleast something fun. But especially about the end of this movie I can't say that.

I'd say, rather watch any of the Scream movies again, than to watch this.

Spanish-language riff on Scream and other '90s meta horror takes most of its best ideas from other movies. It keeps things from getting entirely stale by tweaking the formulas a bit, although there's very little original or unexpected. Attempted jump-scares are banal and predictable. The biggest horror here is the protagonist's haircut, which is clearly the work of a disturbed sadist with an irrational vendetta. The person playing the protagonist seems like a lovely person and a fine actress, but good grief: whoever cut her hair is a deranged butcher with an intrinsic hatred of all that is decent and holy.

Stereotypical friends, all members of a horror book club, are sworn to protect an unfortunate secret; a deadly secret. A secret that causes their pursuit by a murderer thirsting for revenge.

"El club de los lecotres criminares (Killer Book Club, KBC)" is a slasher film with a nebulous theme. The film mentions fear of clowns, coulrophobia, but none of the stereotypical friends have such a fear; the film also permeates the idea of "stolen" stories, but neither themes feel strong enough in the film. In the end, KBC just tells a generic horror story with a serial killer who has superficial motives.

The premise of 'I know what you did last summer' but with every other story beat taken from 'Scream'.

Scream subverted the classic slasher movies of the 90s. This movie leans more into the literary world but doesn't capitalise on it. Doesn't help that the caracters are just generally obnoxious. They mentioned the killer clown phenomenon but didn't explore it beyond the mere mention of it, it could've leaned into the mass hysteria aspect of it more. I'm really disappointed since spanish indie movie makers tend to have a better grasp on what makes horror good.

Just watch Scream instead it hold up better.
