Slayed

I gave this movie a higher rating because I enjoyed it better than many of the other amateur xmas holiday horrors.. It's my holiday tradition to watch low-budget Xmas horrors and/or comedies.

For a Xmas horror comedy, these actors actually seem very self aware of the mockery and you can tell that they have studied enough acting and comedy to rank their performances higher than many others in this specific genre. Unlike most Xmas horror films with generically bad actors these actors are engaging and funny... The secretary (Hilarious. I wanted to see more of her being comically mean to everyone.), the "creepy" groundskeeper (he was actually very entertaining, handsome and sexy) and the new security guard (a highly self-aware, comical and enjoyable performance) are all engaging and humorous characters that make you want to keep watching this story until the end.

This low budget XMas horror/comedy has a unique setting in the warm southern USA with some "Scream"-like twists and turns. Despite the low budget, anyone can tell that the film makers here have some talent and self-aware satire to grow on.

I had fun with this movie while wrapping presents and drinking wine.

If you like cheap Xmas horror but you don't want another typical "at home" setting or the same lame acting, you might enjoy this 1:13min movie before bed during the holidays.
