About
Pick this one if you want a fast, campy slasher that leans into humor and keeps the monster front and center; Not for you if you only want grim, suspense-driven horror with more serious scares like Wrong Turn or Intruder.
Pros: energetic horror-fun; humor-forward tone; iconic return | Cons: kills underwhelming; scares feel tame; characters may seem bland
