My Pure Joy (2011)
On the outside Adam appears to be a normal teenager, but underneath...his mind has been so rotted by trauma from his past and the gory films he watches, that he has blurred the lines between reality and pretend! This prompts Adam to start killing people in similar ways to films he watches, making sure to put his own little spin on it.

    Just pass
    I love horror. This movie was just terrible.

    Just long periods of pot smoking, talking and drinking... interspersed with gore for just gore.

    Not interesting. I lasted about 30 minutes and then scrolled through the end.
