I first heard about this movie from a twitter post by the amazing and talented Felissa Rose when this was in the pre production phase. The more information that started to come out, and the list of horror icons that were signing on to this project steadily grew my excitement for this. Check out the trailer:
What can be scarier than checking into a hotel/motel and finding out you are now the participants in a fight for your life??? Makes me think about those old Black Flag Roach Motels with the slogan, “They check in, but they don’t check out”. For those to young to remember that jewel.
As I mentioned, I was on board with watching this as soon as I heard Felissa Rose was apart of it. When I found out Jeffery Combs was in this also I had to learn everything I could about this project. Check out the list of icons:
- Jeffrey Combs – Re-Animator
- Danielle Harris – Halloween 4
- Dee Wallace – Cujo
- Tony Todd – Candyman
- Bill Moseley – House of 1000 Corpses
- David Howard Thornton – Terrifier 3
- Dave Sheridan – Scary Movie
- Mark Holton – Leprechaun
- Daniel Roebuck – Rob Zombies’ The Munsters
- Felissa Rose – Sleepaway Camp
- Tim Reid – IT 1990
Just to name a few. This movie is directed by by Michael Leavy and special effects by Damien Leone, the movie primarily focuses on the Keenan family on a trip in hopes of reconnecting through old family memories. This nostalgic trip quickly becomes a deadly game of cat and mouse.
This is such a fun ride. From beginning to end we get great kills, and fun performances. David Howard Thornton brings his physical creepy comedy to yet another faceless role. Jeffery Combs is the fun and sadistic as the ringleader of the competition.
If you are looking for intense dread, great kills, and just a fun movie this is absolutely for you. I highly recommend you check it out. 🥃🥃🥃🥃1/2.
