Apart from the lead protagonist, this is a really fun movie. Some good kills and likable characters.
Lets get to the elephant in the room - Jamie is the worst thing about this movie. She's a typical 2023 know it all. She's rude, judgmental, polices everyone's comments and actions and sucks the fun out of every scene she's in. It's a bold move for the writers to make their lead unbearable. But thankfully nearly every other characters makes up for it.
I won't go into spoilers, but the first 'opening kill' is really fun, and I enjoyed that a good fight was put up.
Then when we get to 1987 everyone is a blast, Olivia Holt as Pam is a definite standout, with the actors playing Blake and Randy coming in close behind. Randy constantly kicking Jamie out of both the house and cabin was hilarious.
By the time the big finale and reveal come about I was a little sad to see it end so soon - but luckily there were extra twists and turns.
Definitely a recommend if you like light comedy horrors.
One more thing - what was with that weird panoramic view that distorted the picture quality for about 10 seconds? (around the time Bananarama came on). If you can't do the effect, don't try it.
