#AMFAD: All My Friends Are Dead Ratings & Reviews
- aleebeeJanuary 31, 2025kinda bland, ending was trash.
- CallumNovember 5, 2025⭐½ – #AMFAD: All My Friends Are Dead – Slasher Fatigue with a Hashtag There are films you forget because time dulls them, and then there are films you forget while you’re still watching them. #AMFAD: All My Friends Are Dead lands squarely in the latter category — a modern slasher built from recycled tropes, cheap irony, and an overinflated sense of self-awareness. It’s the cinematic equivalent of someone shouting “look how edgy I am” while tripping over the body count. The setup isn’t terrible: a group of social-media-obsessed friends gather for a music festival, only to find themselves being picked off one by one. On paper, it could’ve been a darkly funny commentary on influencer culture or digital narcissism. In practice, it’s a flat, forgettable gore fest with characters so paper-thin you can almost see the script through them. Nobody here seems particularly invested — not the cast, not the writers, and certainly not the editor. The kills lack creativity, the dialogue lacks wit, and even the attempts at “meta” horror come off as accidental. You get the sense the title might have been the pitch meeting, the poster, and the only good idea all at once. There’s not enough here to truly hate, but even less to recommend. It’s a film that vanishes from memory the moment the credits roll — which, mercifully, is its kindest feature. 🥤 Pairing: A flat can of energy drink — loud branding, all sugar, no flavour, and best thrown away halfway through.
- jackmeatOctober 19, 2024My quick rating - 5.2/10. This flick is yet another entry into the ever-popular slasher genre, this time with a twist based on the seven deadly sins. The premise is straightforward: a group of college friends rent an Airbnb for what should be a weekend of carefree partying at the biggest music festival of the year. However, things quickly turn dark as they start getting picked off one by one, each death corresponding to one of the seven deadly sins. The movie kicks off with character introductions, and it's immediately clear that these people are not long for this world. Almost all of them exhibit toxic traits, making it obvious who’s going to bite the dust—and in this genre, that’s part of the fun. As expected, they all seem to loathe each other, adding to the tension and setting the stage for their inevitable demise. It takes a full 20 minutes to reach the opening credits, but the wait is worth it. The credits sequence features a stylish 1950s filmstrip-style instructional video about the seven deadly sins, which I found to be a creative and entertaining touch. The movie doesn’t offer anything particularly new to the slasher genre. The acting is typical for this style of film—nothing spectacular but serviceable for what the movie is trying to achieve. Jade Pettyjohn got the most screen time and did fairly well to keep me interested in what happened to her. She was my pick for ending up the final girl, although I won't say if I was correct or not. The twists are decent, and the kills are where this film shines. The deaths are creative, and the movie doesn't shy away from showing the gore, which should satisfy any slasher fan’s craving for brutality. Where the movie falls short is in the middle. I wish there had been more focus on the sin-themed killings and their setups. The concept had a lot of potential, but it felt somewhat underutilized. The film is fun and has its moments, but it's not going to stand out as a classic in the genre. The ending does set up a sequel in a clever manner, so there may be more to explore in this world. #EIKID
