Considering the amount of terrible, schlocky, unfunny low budget horror out there, this one is actually pretty good. Original plot, good dialog, funny jokes and decent acting from a cast of unknowns make this eminently watchable. Effects were minimal and not great but didn't detract from the fun. Some great creepy moments too. You could do much worse.
Watched this little film last night and came away happy and satisfied from it but still was bugged by the last twenty something minutes and really bugged by the ending.
Why? Well when things happen to the three guys at the party was very rushed and it showed on film, this I found spoilt the way the film had ran so far.
Then there was the ending, bit did I this spoil the whole movie, well almost. I think they could have done it a lot better and the low budget showed through this scene.
Overall I enjoyed this movie and yes I am glad that I watched it but I wish the producers and people involved in the movie would have shown it to a test audience first and then took notes.
Hopefully next time if they do a sequel maybe they can take this on board.
This film could have easily had a six rating rather than a four if they didn't mess up the second half.

This movie sort of rules. It's not a great movie by any stretch, but it does the best it can with what it has available (read: basically nothing) and I admire its ability to go for it.
A Halloween-themed computer virus spreads across a college campus via an internet meme wherein people are asked about their worst fears. Within 24 hours, those same people wind up dead, seemingly killed by whatever scared them the most. But who's really doing the killing, and why?
This movie channels a tiny sliver of old school Sam Raimi vibes. Not with his energy or slapstick, but in the tendency for his movies to embrace the inherent goofiness of their premise. This is a dumb movie, so dumb it can borderline on self-parody. Definitely dumb enough to be considered kind of trashy.
But then you get whiplash because it stops to take itself just seriously enough that you stay hooked. There's a delightfully weird spark this movie taps in to sometimes, and some decently tense moments. Rarely scary, mind you, but tense enough for a bit of mood. It works enough that I felt like I had a good time.
If this movie were a person, you'd tell it "You're a bad movie" and it would grin and reply, "I know, and that's why you love me."
And it'd be right. Dumb, trashy, bad, whatever you want to call it, but I had fun.

For a modern day horror movie, definitely above average. It had a a couple of characteristics that most lack: A little charm and a couple of likable characters. In most horror movies today you root for the slasher, monster, or evil entity to dispatch all the loathsome and obnoxious "protagonists". The creepy factor was relatively high and the dialogue and acting was better than expected. Overall an entertaining little Halloween flick.
It's really not super scary, no. That's not always my interest in a horror film. I want to see acting that's decent, dialogue with some snap, and story that has some nuance. I was impressed with this. Yes, it's funny quite often, but NOT in a campy way. Think Happy Death Day's quieter baby sister. I've watched a lot of horror movies and this one was pretty creative and well done. A couple well-placed jump scares that weren't the cheesy sudden loud music kind but actually were part of the main story of the movie. I'd say watch this with someone who will snicker along with the two leads' snarking at each other. The final scene was great. Forgive the movie its flaw of slightly slow editing and just know you're not going to be super tense in your seat while watching but it's worth it!
