Mini-review: You're Next (2013)

You're Next
Directed by Adam Wingard



Not nearly as genre-defining and pioneering as some will have you believe, but still probably the best slasher movie since Scream. With a dark, twisted sense of humor and some really great character performances (most notably Sharni Vinson, as one of the coolest horror heroines ever), this movie toys with your expectations and delivers laughs as well as some very creative kills -- which, believe it or not, is actually something that matters a lot to me when it comes to slasher movies. No, this isn't an instant classic by any means, but an entertaining movie that's fun to watch again and again.

★★★★★★★☆☆☆
