About
You’ll likely enjoy this weird dark comedy thriller if you like unexpected, awkward tension and gross-out laughs; Not for you if gore makes you squeamish or if you want a smoother, more consistent tone like The Voices or Psycho Goreman.
Pros: weird dark humor; strong lead performance; entertaining surprises | Cons: some gory scenes; uneven tone; dialogue pacing issues
