- Kevin WardJuly 2, 2025Ahhhh, this made me nostalgic for 90’s opening credits sequences. This one reminded me of some of a David Fincher opening, like Se7en or Fight Club, even though it predates those. The insane amount of one-liners, Doctor puns and ridiculous jokes are probably enough on it’s own to recommend, but there is a good amount of gore and solid kills, too. That giggle, though, insanely creepy, but also funny at the same time.
