The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.
A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.
The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;
By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.
