Bob Clark’s classic currently resides on my shame list, so I have no preconceptions going into this remake. This has a really fun cast. Had me feeling way more nostalgic than I would have guess from a film from 2006. Lacey Chabert took me back to my Party of Five era. Love Mary Elizabeth Winstead, Michelle Trachtenberg, but also love a good *69 shout out. (Not sure why *67 doesn’t get more love and attention though.) Really solid slasher too, with some bloody kills and a entertainingly complicated backstory. Nutcracker Suite score was surprisingly effective. Really fun, but definitely makes me want to check out the original even more.
