About
If you enjoy oddball, sketch-like comedy with a loose scary-story frame, this should click, especially if you liked Mandibles or Keep an Eye Out; Not for you if you want tight plotting and consistent laughs.
Pros: quirky scary-story vignettes; offbeat humor; inventive premise | Cons: joke wears thin; pacing drops mid-film; uneven overall momentum
