This movie gets a ton of points for originality, good acting (save for the stoner guy who I thought was overdone), and some good scares. However at the end of the day I think it tried to hard and was too meta. At the end of the film I wasn't sure if I was supposed to be affected by the outcome or not, since the movie couldn't decide if it was taking itself seriously or not. It comments on horror cliches by being full to the brim of them and there were so many references it became satirical. Which by itself would have been fine, maybe, but the whole overarching story fails to have any weight by the end because they were too busy giving high fives to other movies. Maybe every horror movie was a scenario in this movie, although that seems a little too self important. I think we're the ending different I would've enjoyed it more.

3/5
