You Might Be the Killer

I saw this movie and read a couple reviews on it and decided to take the plunge and watch it.......I am really glad I did. This is one of those movies that usually passes under the radar and not many people hear about it until one of your friends tells you about it. Just about every thing in this movie screamed "B Movie" material, but it was handled very well and I thoroughly enjoyed it! The camera work is nice, and there is some special effects thrown in here and there when needed. It had the same feel as one of the original Evil Dead movies plus a little Grindhouse thrown into the mix as well. There are a couple surprises in the writing, but these are what makes this take on slasher and gore a little different then other movies. If you like slasher movies, gore and above all enjoy B Movies like I do then you need to see this one. I loved the twist to the ending, didn't see that coming!

I loved this little movie. Definitely low-budget, but the plot was interesting enough and a few twists really made me grin. I bet you'll like it too!

That sounds weird,doesnt it? well in fact this is in fact a near perfect filmproduct. the acting are flawlessly done by the cast,and the irony on slasherhorror films live through the whole movie. it was a great surprise seeing alison hannigan, the music nerd from ''american pie''-movies, and she is cutely impressive. the technical setup are amazing,especially the light settings,sound effects and a spot on target use of music. the filmography and camera moves are smooth and tantalizing. the editing are a successtory of itself and the spaghetti-horror inspired bodycounter are brilliant. also the use of a distant character who dialouges with the main through the telephone are clever , it has been done before but here its brilliant and very truthfull watch and learn i say to all aspiring novises of horror film makimg ,producers and screenplay writers what really shocks most are the graveness and very graphic killing scenes, one might say that they have not forgottten to have butter on the broccoli in this film,ill rather say that they have used buckets to smear the taste of the squemish viewer. i think it was too heavy,but it really draw a line under the word irony. the high level of violence are the reason for my 9 star descision its a mockingly good film , highly recommendable for the slasherlaiker, and maybe you too

A bloodfest- smart- fun! I like the SYFY CHANNEL and this movie is a little different from their standard fare. I recommend.

This was a decent slasher movie with a lazy attempt at humor. The one-note gag of the body count got really old really fast with the non-linear storytelling, which caused the numbers to jump all over the place. The screen titles were the movie's only real joke. There were slight attempts at jokes in the dialogue here and there, but they just didn't pack any kind of punch. They could have had the mask hissing the occasional hilarious command at Sam, but mostly what I heard was "Kill, kill, kill..." If other things were said, the sound was too low and my speakers were turned all the way up. There was no character development at all and I didn't care what happened to any of the characters, nor did I have any idea who they even were, other than Imani being Sam's ex, Steve having the nickname "The Kayak King" (a semi-lame joke that almost worked), and Jessie being the "pure" final girl. I read the Twitter conversation this was based on before viewing this movie and that was way more amusing. Overall, just an ok movie. Disappointing.

This was a really clever film i think, and not like anything i´ve ever seen before. Cool story, and the way it was produced really had me enjoying it. Hope to see more from this director

This movie is a quilt of cliches and rip offs. It almost exactly copies the much superior Final Girls by way of The Mask with every other slasher film thrown in. The jokes don't land and it's hard to care about any of the characters. Worst of all is the dialogue and the trite way the characters keep repeating themselves and explaining what we just saw on the screen. Go with the originals instead.

Waaait! I don't mean as good as Scream! But! This one follows the rules of horror, it acknowledges them, it plays by them and also delivers! You see, it has a premise kinda similar to Scream, best and closest movie to do so that I've seen, even tho Cabin in the Woods managed a wonderful approach to this self aware genre, I think YMBtK is even more faithful. It pays homage to plenty of other horrors before it and even one that is my personal favorite but I am not going to ruin it for you guys, yet I am going to point it out just a little and see how many of you get it: When Hanging From A Tree! (soundtrack alone!) Moving on: Nice acting, great actor picks, very comedically humorous dialogue as Michael Scott might say, and a lovely execution. All in all a MUST see to any horror fans out there, of course, bare in mind this more of a black comedy than pure horror. The death kills are ok, the usual slasher blunt force trauma or plain ol' stabs wrapped around a little mystery. I didn't have this much fun since Behind the Mask: The Rise of Leslie Vernon . Cheers!

Attempting to get to safety, a man in the middle of a serial killer's rampage recounts the events that lead to the spree to a friend only to find that telling the story reveals more and more clues that he's the killer and must find out what's happening and who's responsible before it's too late. While problematic, this one still offers up enough to like. One of the stronger aspects to this one is the unique and highly creative storyline that offers a different take on the movie-within-the-movie approach. Taking the idea of trying to recount what happened in order to convince a friend what's going on by doing the flashbacks to the rampage against the rest of the campers, there's a light tone to the proceedings which is enhanced by the various stalking scenes that play out here. Going with the notion that he's reliving the incidents due to the masks' influence, the film has plenty of stellar action scenes here with the encounters at the swimming pool, the scenes at the mess hall and the chase through the woods where it features the killer tracking the stragglers through the trees and snatching them at pretty inopportune times where everybody is distracted by everything going on around them and making the killers' antics all the more surprising. Leading into the big finale which is the chase sequence that brings about the fun double-crosses and tense stalking throughout here, the way this setup deconstructs the usual slasher film antics gives the film a wholly enjoyable and intriguing finish that really is the most enjoyable part. Considering this is mostly accomplished through the phone-call interactions that adds some well-deserved comedy alongside the gore to hold up this one over its flaws. Among the problematic areas are the meta-happy nature of the film which accounts for the humor present. The idea of typing out the deaths on-screen to keep track of what's happening, recapping the similar nature of movies featuring familiar setups to the situation and using their knowledge of the movies to make sense of what's going on might be somewhat distracting and get really old for some out there. This isn't a tactic which really will be divisive as there's very little need for it to be included yet the ingenuity might be appreciated although that does force the issue of the scattered and divisive narrative here. Since it jumps back-and-forth from the beginning of the rampage to the end and then back into the middle in various time-points of the night, this is just utterly confusing and doesn't make any kind of linear sense which is quite difficult if not outright impossible to determine what's going on. As none of the flashbacks are shown in a linear format either, there's an incredibly unfocused feeling to this that really becomes apparent the more subplots are introduced that just derail everything.
