    And another Scream wannabe arrives.....
    A small town is shaken by a series of ominous killings in the days leading up to a heated mayoral election.

    As accusations fly and the threat of a masked killer darkens every street corner, the residents must race to uncover the truth before fear consumes the town......

    This film just goes to show that ideas can come from anywhere, and sometimes, you really have to scrape the barrel.

    I mean, what is this film? Is it a spoof? Because some of the acting is borderline parody, it couldn't be that bad could it?

    And the rationale for the killings is beyond stupid, much like the film.

    So it's your basic slasher film with people acting suspicious to throw the audience off, guessing who will be next, and obviously the audience trying to guess who the killer is.

    The kills are pretty bland, and film breathes no life into the horror genre. This will vanish without a trace, as it has nothing new to offer.

    Cheesy but fun slasher. Just don't take it seriously
    The acting isn't great, but improves as the movie focuses more on the main characters who are a little better. The CGI gore scenes are a little meh, and it would've been a much better film if they were practical. The story is cheesy and the ending is fairly predictable.

    BUT... this isn't supposed to be Shakespeare. It's a B grade slasher movie with mostly unknown actors, that doesn't take itself seriously. Just like pretty much every horror film from the 70s, 80s and 90s. If that's your thing, you'll probably have fun for 100 mins.

    It basically steals from movies like Thanksgiving, Scream, My Bloody Valentine etc. But that's ok.
