The combination of satirical dialogue, romance and murder make this a really entertaining film about the horrors of the 1% with a twist you won't see coming.
For as thrilling as this premise is--a son and stepmom plot to kill their rich father/husband-I found myself laughing throughout this campy, fun film that is unapologetically queer. The over-the-top characters from the gay son with daddy issues to the seemingly stupid trophy wife turned calculated murderess turn basic stereotypes on their head in a way that felt really refreshing. I also thought the film's social commentary on victim narratives is ahead of its time. The tone reminded me of a lot of Jennifer's Body. When I heard "We're white and we're rich, we can kill one guy," it reminded me of the iconic line, "You're killing people! No, I'm killing boys!" There's not a lot of movies with this specific kind of dark humor so I really appreciated that.
Also worth mentioning how great the cast was! Chris Baker was phenomenal, Eliza Coupe was hilarious, and the Lala Kent cameo was superb!
