About
If you want a goofy, old-school slasher throwback with lots of over-the-top blood and crude jokes, this could hit the spot; Not for you if you need real scares, subtle humor, or dislike nudity like in 2001 Maniacs.
Pros: throwback slasher vibe; outrageous gore; some solid laughs | Cons: thin story; uneven humor; heavy raunchy nudity
