Smart and Original Horror

Rating: 9/10 (3 July 2016)

This is the perfect horror film. It has gore, horror, action, comedy and an actual plot that is very clever. It is about a flock of teens going to a cabin in the woods but something isn't right, as you see from the backdrop. The best thing about this film is how it keeps escalating. I mean, it delivers and builds up to more and then delivers and the builds up to more yet again. And ultimately it climaxes into total insanity. It reminds me of the original Scream in how it breaks all the rules and uses that as part of the movie. I watched this film literally a few hours ago. That was my second time viewing the film because I was lucky enough to first see it when it came out back in 2012. And I'm sure I'll be seeing it a few more times and loving it more and more with each viewing, but there just isn't anything like experiencing this film for the first time and doing so without knowing anything about it. I'm going to end this review by just saying one word. Merman.
