thiago s Filme bacaninha, o roteiro é mais ou menos, as cenas de terror são bacaninhas, a história é bacaninha, o elenco é bacaninha, e poucos ajudam a melhorar o filme, os personagens são bacaninhas, e o filme deveria ter cenas bem melhores e relevantes, o filme também tem cenas interessantes que mostram os bastidores de um filme de terror, que tem um plot twist bacaninha, com tudo isso, eu recomendo esse filme. Rated 1.5/5 Stars •  Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 09/16/25 Full Review David L It’s a different kind of slasher film, for sure. Completely different than anything else in the genre. So much more going on here than topless teen girls getting hacked up in the woods. Very original. I loved it. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/04/25 Full Review Tasha L To be honest I didn’t like it at first but the ending did not disappoint. Super underrated and a great film to watch. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 12/09/24 Full Review Jay H A clever "mockumentary" that follows a killer as he gets ready for his first slaughter. The writing is smart, and the performances are terrific. Personally, I wish the movie had more gore (hey, even if you are making a slasher comedy, the kills should be explicit), but that's just me. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 10/26/24 Full Review Riley A Pretty Groundbreaking for its time, I saw this when I was younger and whenever I think of original horror movies this one definitely hits the mark. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/02/24 Full Review Grimm R Behind the Mask: The Rise of Leslie Vernon is an incredible mockumentary horror/comedy that follows a normal looking guy, Leslie Vernon who has an obsession with movie-style slashers like Michael Myers, Jason Voorhees, and Freddy Krueger and decides to follow in their footsteps and invites a documentary filmmaker and her crew to follow him around as he constructs his own grisly legacy. Nathan Baesal as Leslie Vernon truly captures how I feel a serial killer would be like when preparing to kill someone. I can truly see Norman Bates in his appearance and his personality is like Billy & Stu from Scream but in one person and the performance from Baesal was just perfect. Angela Goethals in this movie is also amazing as she is the documentary host, Taylor and is the person following Leslie around for the whole movie and I feel like is underrated in the slasher fandom. The humor in this movie is sort of what you'd expect as its satire and is similar to Scream but a bit more satire and comedy which I felt like the balance in this movie was perfect, especially when it came to the raunchy horror slasher tropes. It was also interesting following Leslie through the documentary and seeing how he'd prepare to kill, his brain process, and just how committed he was to this. The satire tropes in this movie like switching from the documentary camera style to the horror slasher style I think was pretty great and also the twist towards the end which I find genius and well thought out as it had been built up since the beginning and the fakeout truly threw me off. I honestly didn't find anything in this movie that bothered me or anything like that because this movie was just a lot of fun, charming, has some gore, and just executes its premise and tone so perfectly. Behind the Mask gets an A++. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/07/24 Full Review Read all reviews
