Mini-review: Behind The Mask: The Rise Of Leslie Vernon (2006)

Behind The Mask: The Rise Of Leslie Vernon
Directed by Scott Glosserman



Starting off with a great premise that eventually disintegrates into a series of predictable cliches and obvious conclusions, this self-aware slasher film may cover similar ground as Wes Craven's Scream series, but tackles the subject in a completely different way. With a charming and psychotic lead in Nathan Baesel as the titular Leslie Vernon, this movie makes a few missteps, but more than makes up for them with its dark sense of humor and imaginative storyline. Fans of the slasher genre will find a lot to love here.

★★★★★★★☆☆☆
