Killer Book Club

I am a big fan of slashers so I don't like to criticize any of them if they try to create something different, original or a good interpretation of the usual script. This movie fails on everything. It is a bad copy of movies like I know what you did last summer or Scream.

First, acting is bad. I didn't root for any of the characters. Second, the script is predictable and forgettable. To add, there are several important scenes that are not explained. Third, it is fair to say Fx's are quite good, but are not enough to save this one.

So, if you love great slashers Skip this one. Go and watch The Faculty, original Scream, or I know what you did last summer.

The Horror aspect is okay. With a big drop of in the end. And the look of the movie is most of the time not to bad.

The setting seams promising and gives you the vibe of classics like scream. But the movie fails du deliver on that promise, and ends to be a really bland and uncreative movie. Its just a compilation of old and bad cliche, executed even worse.

With characters that stupid you can't stand this movie and you want to turn it off.

After watching the movie I have to say, one of the worst movies I have seen in a long time. Wasted potential, because you get the feeling, there would have been a fun story to be told in this giant mess. Nothing original or new, but atleast something fun. But especially about the end of this movie I can't say that.

I'd say, rather watch any of the Scream movies again, than to watch this.

Stereotypical friends, all members of a horror book club, are sworn to protect an unfortunate secret; a deadly secret. A secret that causes their pursuit by a murderer thirsting for revenge.

"El club de los lecotres criminares (Killer Book Club, KBC)" is a slasher film with a nebulous theme. The film mentions fear of clowns, coulrophobia, but none of the stereotypical friends have such a fear; the film also permeates the idea of "stolen" stories, but neither themes feel strong enough in the film. In the end, KBC just tells a generic horror story with a serial killer who has superficial motives.

Spanish-language riff on Scream and other '90s meta horror takes most of its best ideas from other movies. It keeps things from getting entirely stale by tweaking the formulas a bit, although there's very little original or unexpected. Attempted jump-scares are banal and predictable. The biggest horror here is the protagonist's haircut, which is clearly the work of a disturbed sadist with an irrational vendetta. The person playing the protagonist seems like a lovely person and a fine actress, but good grief: whoever cut her hair is a deranged butcher with an intrinsic hatred of all that is decent and holy.

I expected a lot more from this movie , from the first few minutes I thought wow this looks a lot like "I know what you did last summer" and it continuously got more and more like "I know what you did last summer" just with phones and computers. Eventually it turned into scream movie or any other slasher from the 90's early 00's and it wouldn't be a huge problem if it wasn't too predictable , I just knew what's gonna happen and the fake blood was also very annoying.

It's a watchable movie if you really don't have much to do or don't know what to watch otherwise I'd say skip it if you're expecting something big or want to watch an unforgettable movie because you'll probably forget you watched this one after a few days or so..
