Probably the best rom-com satire I've seen since Not Another Teen Movie. A bit of fun gore, some good laughs. The acting and cinematography feels about CW-level, but it mostly fits for what this is. Manages to be a better holiday slasher than quite a few others.

All of them are captivating to watch in their own ways, and it's always interesting to dig deeper into their stories and learn what's driving their thought processes throughout the increasingly complex plot. Cho Jin-woong also has some…
