Oh, I couldn’t disagree more! The characters were fun, and the cast was cute. But mainly, I really liked the way the script slouches against the 4th wall, smoking a cigarette and laughing at the audience the whole time. The unreliable narrator is a common trope in psychological thrillers, but I can’t recall seeing it used in a horror movie before. And the central plot device is a group of fans of a found-footage horror movie watching footage they found of themselves enacting the violent scenes of the horror movie they’re in. I think that’s very clever! Still, I can see your point. It’s not scary. No amount of meta-narrative flair can redeem a horror movie that isn’t scary. Which is exactly the problem I had with this movie too.
