In a nutshell, the main character's wife dies and his friends offer to stay with him for a few days to lift his spirits. Meanwhile, someone is killing them one by one.
It's a familiar premise for a slasher movie, and that's okay. What's not okay is all of the irrelevant details that slow down the plot. In between kills, we get to watch a married couple be passive-aggressive, the gang take a trip to the video store (where hilarity is intended to ensue), and bros having a bromantic moment. Unfortunately, none of this is interesting. I don't want to hang out with these people, therefore they cannot die off fast enough. I did appreciate the ending, though.
No skin but plenty of fake blood.
I have no problem with bad acting, bad writing, bad direction, or bad special effects if the movie is fun or interesting. My reasons for the low rating is its pacing and seemingly irrelevant plot details that only serve to slow it down and obfuscate its focus and purpose.
