Vicious Fun
“We're going to have a lot of fun tonight.”
Certified Crap. CrapScore 62, rated by 1 admin.
Higher CrapScores mean more entertainingly bad. How we score movies.
A horror journalist accidentally joins a support group for serial killers and must improvise a convincing introduction. The setup promises delicious professional embarrassment alongside eighties-style slashing. Familiar killer types and heavy exposition reduce the surprise, so choose it for the premise and comic panic.
