    ★★★

    Instant classic. The gore was satisfyingly gory—sure, hardcore horror buffs might say it's nothing, but it was disgusting enough for me. The messaging was a bit on the nose, yes, but who cares?

Of course I appreciated the messages, the visuals, the casting it was all great. However by the end of it I was wondering why they keep going in circles and why is the narrative not moving, nothing new is happening, no new information is shared just the one gag. They could've just taken the…
