Really solid slasher that didn't hide behind the self reflexive smokescreen (ala Scream/Final Destination) bullshit or remake the oldies blandness.
Couldn't have said it better myself. I absolutely loved this film (and usually our tastes defintely diverge on slasher films). I thought it was an indie gem done by someone who obviously loves the genre and has a knack for special effects. There were definitely a couple of jaw-dropping kills and that rarely happens for me anymore. If you like slasher movies, I highly recommend it.
