    Popcorn Kernels + Toilet Paper = That doesn't even make sense

    I had a chance to check out this film from the Hells Half Mile Film Festival in Bay City, Michigan. It was a fun ride! It had some great dialogue scenes and fleshed out characters, I really enjoyed the performances (Val & Jake were very good). The location in this film is STUNNING and can keep you hooked even if Horror/Comedy isn't your thing. True indie films have to have a ton of heart behind them and this one for sure does. There are a few plot points you could see coming, but that goes with any horror film in the slasher genre, the comedy elements were great and the scenes had great pacing to them. Great work to the whole team.

    A solid enough if somewhat problematic slasher

    On the verge of closing down, a movie theater's crew goes through a series of tasks to try to prepare for its closing week, but as they try to get everything prepared they find themselves troubled by a strange serial killer looking to stop their advances and must stop his plans to save the theater.

    Overall, this was a fairly enjoyable indie slasher. One of the better elements here is the way this one sets up the lighthearted connection featured within here involving how the theater patrons are shown going about dealing with the closure notice. While some are far more concerned with getting new work in the tanking economy or what's going to happen to the building as a whole, others are concerned with their own issues involving how to get items out of the theater, slack off at work which makes them oblivious to what's going on. As none of it is all that stands but simply serves well enough to attach a name and character type to the face, this makes the wrestling slashing scenes quite intriguing with how the killer sneaks around the compound to carry out his spree against the employees that reaches its peak with the wild finale. That part is where the film stumbles somewhat as it might be a comedic-tinged slasher but little of it actually works. The comedy isn't that funny as it mainly consists of the causal nature of their slacking off at work more than anything which isn't remotely that comedic taking up a lot of the already-brief-enough running time here that what should be funny doesn't come off as such. Even worse is the stalking, which features a horribly unimposing scrawny killer in a laughable ski mask trying to intimidate people with an unimposing physique that has to rely on the multitude of stabs to try to make something of his presence there. However, since he's off-screen so much due to the attempts at comedy, you sometimes forget he's there when it focuses on the lives of the closing down theater patrons rather than dealing with their missing workers, lowering this one significantly.

    Rated Unrated/R: Graphic Language and Violence.
