Vicious Fun

I watched better and far worse: Vicious Fun is mildly entertaining, mildly funny, got a solid production and a well acting cast. To watch that little flick won't hurt you but will have no lasting impression on you - the initial idea is good but the story unfolding pretty standard. Anyway, if you need a little snack, you may try this one.

I can just say , that it is a wonderful dark ,funny , gory , smart horror/comedy ! The old-fashioned soundtrack adds nicely to overall 80-s set up . Definitely recommended!!!

This is a well-made romp.

The acting and characterizations are interestingly top-notch.

There is good set design.

The plot is playful.

The gore is effective.

The humor is decent.

I had no idea what the movie was about going in but I was pleasantly surprised.

Thankfully this is one of those present era movies where a movie is a movie and not some social commentary in or PC nonsense which most movie makers these days are opting for to be in trend.

This is an homage to 80's horror, a bit funny, different story and the cast delivered as well. It has some good gore not too excess and few laughs for people who enjoy horror or thrillers with a dash of creativity.

Enjoy and don't be too harsh , keep making such movies with good looking cast in the future as well.

Since the meta slasher is becoming it's own trope, films now need to find inventive ways to play around within even that framework. Vicious Fun is up for the challenge, bringing to the table the unique idea of a normal teen stuck at a serial killer AA meeting. This gives us the opportunity to sift through several slasher archetypes in a less than familiar setting.

Unfortunately, the film squanders it's clever concept by delegating that meeting to one sequence, then moving swiftly past it while there was still untapped potential for comedic fodder. As is often the downfall of the meta-slasher, it too soon devolves into being a genuine slasher with much the run-time taken up by "Ahhh! Run! He's coming to get me!" moments.

Evan Marsh hams it up a little too much and many of his punchlines fall flat, but Amber Goldfarb could give Samara Weaving a run for her money the next time a film needs a badass heroin.

The film never takes itself too seriously, and the 80s nods are occasionally endearing, which can make for an enjoyable watch if your expectations aren't too high.
