Best Parts
This movie follows the classic slasher formula, introducing a new group of characters who become targets. It hits all the expected beats with impactful deaths, but also manages to build suspense by keeping the ultimate reveal a mystery.
Worst Parts
It’s tough for slasher films to really stand out, and unfortunately, this one doesn’t quite reach the standard set by most others. The characters aren’t particularly memorable, and neither the killer nor the unique idea behind the film are as effective as they could have been.
