- Kevin WardJuly 7, 2025I wanted to like this more than I actually did. This seemed like a great concept for horror slasher. Jordana Brewster gives a gutsy performance venturing outside the Fast franchise. I would love to see her in more features. It has some really impressive moments of gore splattered throughout. I think this is my first Jay Baruchel written/directed film that I’ve seen though, and unfortunately, I think it could have been better executed on those fronts. It appears to be his first horror so maybe this is just a Hiccup in his filmography. When it started off with the comic book visual motif at the beginning, really loved that and thought we’d be in for something really cool, but then that visual flare is never revisited. It’s somewhat saved by a solid ending, but this one had already lost me on the way there.
- jackmeatMay 14, 2025My quick rating - 5.4/10. I think I may have liked this a bit more than most have. More or less your typical slasher. This time the killer is recreating his kills to emulate the pages of a popular adult comic called "Slasherman". This is prompted by the makers of the comic going on a countrywide tour (one interview) to promote the final issue being made. But was the comics' inspiration from a real killer or the other way around? Maybe both, I am not saying, since it may all just be a coincidence. Overall, not a bad flick, especially trying to squeeze something original into a very crowded subsection of the horror genre. Pretty violent when the time comes, but really not random at all.
