Despite some gruesome brutality, Totally Killer has a very light-on-its-feet quality. But as artificial entertainment goes, this one’s put together with ruthless care. Read full review

If anything, the horror element of this horror movie is the weakest part, but Totally Killer is spry enough to remain enjoyable throughout. Read full review

Totally Killer isn’t as great as the sum of its parts, but its playful sincerity and creative chase sequences make it an easy, enjoyable Halloween watch that couldn’t have come at a better time. Read full review

The ambition often outweighs the execution, but Totally Killer is still a fun and bloody riff on several different genres at once. Read full review

It wants to make a joke at its source material’s expense, but all it ever accomplishes is making you want to watch those classics instead. Read full review
