In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.

The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.

My quick rating 6,5/10. I haven't enjoyed a movie I knew nothing about like this in a long time. Take basically every movie genre, think of a bunch of titles from each, and mash them all up into one all over the place package. To attempt to pin this to one genre is impossible, it attempts them all, and does a pretty good job. Explaining the plot is tough, but this often funny movie encompasses time travel, slasher films, teen comedy and the breakfast club just to name a few of what you are getting into. Nice performances from quite a few unknowns as well. The timing is pretty spot on for the jokes, and are so far off for the scares it is just fun. I am sure anyone can pick this movie to shreds for continuity if they so desire, but very much not worth it. "OMG is she going to give birth to herself" LOL. Suffice it to say, in being so much like so many movies you have seen, this is something you have never seen before. I am unsure why I hadn't seen or heard of this before now but I am glad I finally ran across this one. Oh, and apparently Dane Cook still does have a job...then again, he did recently pop up on American Gods. Good stuff, check it out.

After watching this movie I wanted to tell everyone about it because I loved it so much but didn't know how to describe it. It was like a bunch of 80's and 90's teen comedies and horror films rolled into one fast-paced entertaining movie. I did find myself puzzled a few times because certain plot points were so unexpected but I loved it. It's definitely a hidden gem and I found it as a recommended movies on Netflix. It's definitely not a movie for everyone but it's the first movie I've watched in a long time that made me want to immediately watch it again partly because I think I'll see things I missed and also because I was so entertained.

I give this a seven because I have to round up, but its the archetypal 6.5There are a lot of references in this that are worthwhile, but they are so disjointed it hard to make anything of them, in fact its hard to really take anything from this one. Its about as relentless as anything you'll see, but its pace is too overwhelming to say it "meanders" through a narrative that becomes suddenly and violently indecipherable about half-way through. As far as a horror film goes, this one is actually a bit of fun, but doesn't deliver to enough of a horrific atmosphere to enthrall in that way, in fact I wouldn't even call this on the fringe or horror/baroque horror.The cheap references and wacky writing is pretty hit-and-miss, the hits substantial but the misses more common. Perhaps the most misleading things about it due to the fact that its plot structure involves 50% exposition/onset phasing. All things considered it one of the funner films you wouldn't have seen available on the internet TV or wherever else, but don't expect to be thinking about it hours after watching it. If you are then you should probably get your stuff together.

I'll be honest, I wasn't expecting much from the trailer and so I wasn't disappointed. Disappointed would be the wrong word to describe my feelings towards this movie, because my expectations certainly were not high and so it did not let me down. If anything it lived up to my expectations. I decided to give it a go because it looked wacky and modern, and wacky it certainly was. I've never really experienced something like this film and its fast pace gave it a slight edge that was drawing to me to continue to watch. With just half an hour to go, I switched off. The plot was confusing and it was difficult to keep up. It also went off on a bit of a tangent by the final scenes. I certainly would not describe this as a horror (nor a comedy at that). Perhaps I would have liked it if I watched to the end. This film is not for those who want to relax, laugh, or scream at.
