Extracurricular

The premise of the movie was not convoluted, it was pretty straight forward. A group of teens who like to kill. There was no hidden agenda, no revenge killings, no sad backstory. I appreciate that is was just some friends who liked to kill (because some sick people do irl).

I thought the movie was smart and reminded me of Murder by Numbers. They didn't care much for human life, but for the most part, cared for eachother. The relationship between the two sons and their father showed that even well loved children go astray in the most macabre ways.

Spencer MacPherson, as younger brother Ian, stole the show. I wanted so badly for him to be the last man standing. Even though I wasn't thrilled with the who, I was ok with the ending. I enjoyed the movie and felt it was a fresh slasher film, especially of late. Sometimes blood and gore doesn't make the movie, and while this one does have its moments, it also has a pretty good storyline.

I don't lean on reviews when choosing a movie, but I use IMDB as a gauge for what to expect. Interpreting 6 stars for good quality, I rented Extracurricular. How in the world did this movie get over 6 stars?! If I had received a heads-up as to what I was in for, I wouldn't have paid to rent it. The movie is ok. There are plenty of holes, acting is not too bad and writing is below average, but it's the kind of film I'd watch on Netflix or Prime. The characters remain as unfamiliar at the end as they are in the beginning. There's a clusterfumble of twists and sort of suspenseful moments. There are plenty of unanswered questions. But the movie is forgettable, so I actually don't want answers.

The acting was good the idea was ok there was just no surprises and the ending was blah

I hate seeing false reviews on here and you can always tell when they give 9s n 10s but i gotta say the movie did remind me of the purge the kill game is on point i do believe with a better budget this coulda went far.

I need to know if there is any one using the shower because I need one after this film. Let me first say, I am a huge horror movie fan and have watched some pretty gross stuff. In other horror movies you get to suspend reality for an hour and half and take a joyride into horror. This film do not let you suspend those thoughts but drags me deeper in. Maybe this film was successful making it seem to be a plausible reality. Extracurricular made me question kids under 18 and how they view human life. I watched this movie to the end and thought. I wasn't ready for this. Maybe this would be rewarding to other horror fans but left me emotionally wrecked .
