Killer Kate!

This one is similar to "You're Next", but the home movie cam version. A Home invasion style comedy in which you actually get to root for the hero or heroine but unfortunately it's got a lot of weaknesses. For an action oriented film not a lot happens in it's short hour and twenty minutes. I liked the witty dialog but it feels cheap and the characters are all grossly unlikable. It's just on the cusp of homemade to the point that in one scene a character gets impaled from an angle that doesn't work and in the next scene they're laying there pretending to be dead and you can tell they're holding the impaling rod in their jacket.

There's a chance I'm missing some next level campyness but too much of the film is played seriously for me to believe that. Hopefully the director gets it right on the next one. I liked what they were trying to do but I can't recommend this one to anyone beyond those that like to laugh at bad films.
