I expected this to be a run of the mill slasher film but it's actually more of an anthology movie with a loose connecting plot of a girl who has dreams where she sees her friends die, well generally not her friends. Sometimes. Maybe.
The main portion of the story in a house in the woods is the worst part by far. The main girl and her love interest both mumble every line of dialogue with the emotion of a sponge. It's the most generic slasher bit and it was a real slog to sit through. Someone else reviewed this and said it's clearly a horror comedy but the main scenes in the house prove it isn't intended to be that. There is no comedy at all in these parts. It's also very clear who the killer is.
The anthology parts are where it seems to be more comedy focused but also only sometimes. They're meant to be the dreams of the main girl seeing premonitions of how her friends will die, except they aren't. The first cut away shows a group of people try and prank one of the main girls, then at the end she kills one of them (but then shows up at the house acting weird and disappears at the time of the first death, I wonder who the killer is). It's probably a collection of the worst acting overall and is just awful.
The second is a really bizarre but really enjoyable one about ancient ghosts and there are CGI monsters in it. It is totally out of place with the rest of the movie since it's an out and out comedy, it's relatively well acted and is pretty enjoyable. It's also about demons and monsters when the rest is just about a crazy girl who got pranked. It also doesn't feature any of the characters from the rest of the movie so the dream premonition thing already fell flat at that point.
The last one is just kind of boring, a girl going to see them accidentally hits a dude in the woods and a weird guy "helps" her. About 99% of it is pointless but there is a scene where she gets sprayed by a woodchipper the creepy dude is feeding a body in which is unintentionally funny. It also falls apart with the dream premonition thing since the main girl assumes it has already happened (so you know it's gonna happen later).
Another thing is there is a weird lack of music in basically every scene which does add to the awkwardness of it all.
I found it hard to score this one since a lot of the time I was checking the clock but the few fun moments did pick it up, especially the middle dream.
