More slashers should have their killers’ motivations tied into how annoying it is to live next to a punk band.

It would be completely reasonable to pan this for being incomprehensible, badly paced, strangely acted, and indulgent, but in that confused, slow, awkward mess are a fair few moments of accidental (?) brilliance. Some of these moments are funny (like the pizza eating…
