Uma comédia muito bem-feita que, parodicamente, transforma clichés de terror ao avesso, com grandes linhas, assassinatos sangrentos engraçados e frutíferos, e mesmo uma dimensão simpaticamente humana. Excelente argumento e direção.

To shoot a good parody of a genre film, you need a sense of humor, a thorough knowledge of the genre, excellent actors, and above all, the ability to shoot a better genre film than the one you are blatantly making fun of. The first two requirements are met, but not the rest. The average actors (with Alan Tudyk being the only standout) try their best to overact to the point of absurdity, and the film crew is convinced that the key to a successful parody is equipping the characters with crowd insanity, so the American university students showcase the intelligence of a rocking horse. The film isn't (overtly) awkward and tasteless, but it's also not good - at least not compared to the positive reviews it once managed to elicit from its audience. If Eli Craig didn't rely so much on pervasive stupidity but had the courage to shoot the appropriate gags and crazy situations "seriously," it wouldn't diminish the entertainment value, and the overall impression would be much better. Overall impression: 40%.

I expected the ultimate horror laughter, but I only got a decent comedy with a refreshing idea that in the end surrenders the parody line and becomes an unintended negation of itself. This will likely be “thanks to” the inexperienced screenwriters, who didn’t know how to smoothly wrap the story up. I laughed a couple of times, it was really nice to watch, but after the hype from the festivals, I was expecting something better.

Man, I was really rooting for those two guys to have a chill weekend with some beers and BBQ at their cabin. But then a bunch of idiotic college students had to show up on the other side of the lake. This is exactly the kind of bloody comedy that plays on stereotypes about students and hillbillies. It was so well done that we were talking about it at work for days. Simple, fun, and straightforward. When a movie nails it like this, you just don’t forget it.

The first half hour is magnificent. I never expected such a witty and creative mockery of the basic clichés of slasher horror. The rest is just average funny bollocks that gradually runs out of breath and the creativity is replaced by not very funny or original drudgery. But hats off to Katrina Bowden, who is the dream of every murderous and innocent individual on the planet – I'd change sides for her. 70%
