"Hell is a teenage girl."

A horror comedy that explores themes of female empowerment, coming of age, gender dynamics and female gaze (Megan Fox is the perfect casting choice for this). It also goes into satire territory with these themes. Boy-hungry Megan Fox is killer in the role, for what the movie is she absolutely gets the job done. Although the MVP is Amanda Seyfried's Needy. The relationship between these two is the core of the movie, it's fascinating but also very puzzling—which is the point I think? To show how confusing it usually is. Hilarious dialogue but unrealistic at times. There's a few cool kills but I wish they showed more with better effects. Third act was good (everything in the pool was great) but I expected a little more fun and blood and kills. A good time overall but could have been better with the horror elements.

The Chris Pratt jumpscare totally got me!
