I thought this was quite entertaining. It definitely had me guessing all the way. I think the cast was quite good and that the writing was good as well. The nod to all the classics and even more modern day films was definitely refreshing and any horror fanatic or fan could definitely appreciate it. All in all I thought it was an entertaining ride all the way through.

Joe Foster (Lucas Neff) loves horror films. He freeloads off his rich girlfriend Lindsey (Caitlin Stasey) who somehow loves him in spite of his obsession and faults. Joe's friend Ben (Chris Marquette) from back east shows up at his (or Lindsey's) California home with his wife Ashleigh (Chris Marquette). Ben also loves horror films. Joe gets a mysterious card for "Fear Inc." a company that specializes in creating a personal horror experience. He makes a call to find out more and discovers they have no openings.The fun then begins as people die around Joe in horror film fashion. They mention some of them in case you haven't seen every horror film, such as "Friday the 13th" and "Saw." The amount of films they pay homage to is tremendous, and I am certain I missed a few. Note the "Freddie" shirt on Joe at the end. The film makes you expect multiple twists.The acting was good, but my big question is why didn't they hire some inexpensive standard horror film actors to be in the film to play the extras? How much could a guy like Clint Howard charge? Tobin Bell? A missed opportunity for more humor.Guide: F-word. No sex or nudity.

As a big fan of the genre, it doesn't take much for me to watch a horror/thriller if given a few positive reviews, but within the first few minutes, I deemed that the main character was that of another poorly played juvenile trapped inside a late twenty-something's body, this time with a hipster look, slamming beers every 10 seconds while giving us no reason to root him on through a survival horror situation. You're basically looking at a slightly larger, more intelligent yet less funny Pauly Shore unafraid of anything for his brain is apparently fried and full of cliché. As the story attempts to create suspense, the film becomes more and more predictable, desperately trying to sell scares when your girlfriend has fell asleep half way through. Sorry to be so down on this film, but one of the actors even sites the movie that it so uselessly rips off, The Game with Michael Douglas. Skip this one unless you are a huge fan of modern day B movie failures.

So, this guy is a horror film fan, an adrenaline junkie. He really wants a real feel of the true horror feeling. They give it to him and then some! The actors are really good, actually. I thought for a moment that it was bad acting, but really, it was good acting OF bad acting. If that makes any sense. I was hesitant to watch it because it is also categorized as "Comedy" in the genre, but now I get it. Some parts will make you laugh because of the actor Lucas Neff! He is just a great actor, funny or serious!! I read other reviews that say there are twists, after twists, after twists.... so that prepared me for 3 twists. I was not prepared for the 4th! It is worth watching! Very entertaining! Enjoy :)
