You know the saying "What goes around, comes around" ? That really applies to seven friends who graduated together and share a terrible secret with each other. Until the group of friends slowly starts to shrink, because they are murdered one by one. Now, when hearing the stories of these annoying bullies, you're inclined to think they had it coming. Because the tricks they played upon their fellow students (and even teachers), wasn't something to be taken lightly. Those jokes were so radical, a fellow student got killed. And now there appears to be someone who wants to take revenge on this gang of clowns. And the way they are killed, is linked to a particular joke they've pulled.
"Kill Game" isn't an unbelievable good horror. But it tries to honour the traditions of the better hacker / slasher films from the 70s (for instance "Halloween" and "Friday the 13th"). So this means that a group of stupid and arrogant teenagers is gathered again to serve as cattle for slaughter. And the mysterious serial killer wears a grim mask, of course. In this case, it's a Marilyn Monroe mask. Also a list of all candidate murderers is needed. This list may turn out to be exceptionally long. After counting all fellow students and teachers who were victims of a malicious prank, you'll get a significant number of candidates. And as a highlight, the twin brother of the poor devil who didn't survive a joke appears.
But beyond these few similarities with older slasher films, this is a film that effortlessly will sink into oblivion. Anyhow, the lousy acting (inherent to this kind of films) and the not so original story-line are also present. What remains is a typical game of guessing who's the perpetrator, what's the motive and who'll eventually survive. And there's also someone whose profile complies with the characteristics of the perpetrator. Obviously that's a wrong assumption. How surprising! Indeed, a stack of known clichés. The only thing that remains is how the victims were killed. So, it isn't exactly breathtaking cinema. The only thing I've learned out of this movie, is that it isn't very smart to bully others.

The movie doesn't really stand out since the idea itself has been done before like a hundred times. I know what you did last summer meet scream kind of thing. The acting was mediocre at best (some parts were really awful, with a few good moments here and there) also, did they say a group of good looking friends? Because even that is questionable (there was like maybe 2 eye candies) it had the potential to be good, but it just fell flat and character development was almost non existent that I didn't feel sorry for anyone that died, they're not likeable people, but maybe that's the point? Also, the cops are really dumb and a lot of the decisions made by the characters were just stupid. Was it the worst hour and a half I spent? Definitely not.. While I did enjoy some moments (and the design of the mask was cool I thought) overall I don't necessarily recommend. Also, it wanted you to wonder who the killer might be, but to me it was kinda obvious from the beginning who it was...
Kill game more like kill me as this film is awful from the script to the acting, screen shots camera angles the only best part is when you see the credits as then you know its finished. Its the same old story of a bunch of teenagers who play pranks on others and would you believe it one of those pranks goes wrong and someone dies, 5 years later somebody starts killing the group members one by one. From the start you can figure out who the killer is and evan the kills are pretty stupid theirs not a lot of good things to say about this film and evan the harcore thriller/horror fans out there would not like this film. Overall kill game is a low budget very poor attempt at a horror film that's plot has been done more times than iv had Sunday dinners.
So good idea, some truly gross scenes, but the movie falls short in the mystery department. The plot doesn't come together well. Acting is meager. Production is okay. Nothing special. Could have been much more, but I'm guessing budgetary concerns left much to be imagined.
I want to know who that man behind the mysterious mask is. I didn't understand the outcome of the movie. Who's the one who killed that person returned?
