Genuinely Awful
I felt so bamboozled watching this movie considering the ratings are high enough and most people have it at the top of their “ scariest movie “ list. I should have known when it was also listed under “comedy” that I was wasting my money to watch it. Nothing about this movie was scary. The whole first half of the movie is basically watching porn (awkward enough with other people in the room) ; the second half then gives you lack luster kills with a boring storyline. My boyfriend and I both hated it and I would never recommend this to anyone

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. What a piece of garbage. If this is where modern day slasher horror pictures are going I’m tapping out. If you wanna watch soft porn, especially 80 year olds getting it on, have at it. The group of early 20 year olds who I sat near and spoke to afterwards were disgusted and will be in shock for life. You can’t unsee what you should never have seen in the first place. A new low. Expand

Directed by Ti West, this horror slasher set in 1979 Texas follows a group of amateur porno filmmakers who set up shop in an old farmhouse, much to the chargin of the elderly couple living there who doesn't take kindly to their presence. AsDirected by Ti West, this horror slasher set in 1979 Texas follows a group of amateur porno filmmakers who set up shop in an old farmhouse, much to the chargin of the elderly couple living there who doesn't take kindly to their presence. As you can imagine, sex, murder, and mayhem ensue. Judging by the trailer for this film when I first saw it, I had very low expectations for this one, as it simply looked like just another generic slasher movie, and the many tropes and cliches that come with films like this have been worn way thin. However, I gave it a chance mostly due to the fact that it stars a few decent names such as Mia Goth and rapper Kid Cudi (Scott Mescudi), as well as the fact that A24 was distributing. Well sure enough, this film was just as terrible, predictable, and absurd as I thought it would be. It's completely riddled with slasher cliches from start to finish, from the kills and cheap jump scares to the stereotypical dumb victims you'd expect to find in a film like this. The film is also highly predictable from start to finish. Every kill, jump scare, etc. You can see coming from a mile away. It's also surprisingly slow and drags quite a bit whenever the killing isn't happening. And just when I thought it couldn't possibly get any worse, we're treated to a post-credit scene teasing us with a prequel to this film that looks just as ridiculous and awful as this film was. So overall, silly jump scares, endless cliches, subpart acting, and typical dumb characters make this one a total dud, completely forgettable, and just as disposable as the rest in the endless line of cliche slasher flicks that have come before this one. It's an early contender for worse film of 2022 so far for me. I have NO idea what A24 saw in this one when they agreed to distribute it, let alone what all the other critics who raved about this one saw in it. Expand

This movie is perfect if you ever wanted a rip-off of The Texas Chainsaw Massacre with no horror or tension and bunch of over-written characters spouting current-year nonsense in a retro movie. Skip it!!!

Ugly, slasher porn. I love a good scary movie as much as the next guy, but it's pretty difficult to SHOCK me anymore. I've seen Isis behead a journalist on CNN.

I've seen Isis behead a journalist on CNN. And we're all watching the atrocities in the Ukraine. Still...I had higher hopes for this movie. I laughed a couple of times, but more at the characters than with the characters. Brittany Snow and Mia Goth (great last name) at least act like they're in on the joke. But it's an old, STALE story.

O filme é raso e a trama é fraca. Demora muito pra chegar no apse final e a motivação do antagonista é uma porcaria.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This movie serves no purpose. It's a somewhat retelling of TCSM with lower production value, terrible writing and boring dialogue. I don't really see the point in trying to reinvent the wheel without even trying to surpass the original.
The cast are bad and forgettable at best (kid cudi), grating and obnoxious at worse (mia goth). The gear switches into drive in the final 30mns, but every scene from then on is predictable and boringly unoriginal.
The only disturbing thing in this movie is how hard ti west tries to be shocking with gerontophilia. Because the gore is also pretty tame and...well, done a thousand times before.
Unoriginal, boring, predictable, with a terrible, grating lead. You may skip this one.

Even the MGM's lion was silenced: no more is to be expected from the A24.
