pretty good story line at the start, some gruesome stuff and few jump scenes. Ending was pretty lame, hence the 4 star. MINORS DO NOT SEE!

It has certain je ne sais quoi, if graphic nudity, self-referential humor and serial murder — neck stabbing, eye gouging, alligator munching and shotgun blasting — are your thing.

West delivers a crowd-pleasing return to horror that’s a love letter to the genre without becoming a parody.

Ti West is back with a violent vengeance, slicing and dicing through likable characters that light up the screen throughout their doomed and debaucherous overnight shoot. West is operating on another level — even the slightest editing cut cranks fear factors another notch higher.
