Paul M Not your typical ultra violent, camp fest… there is more lurking just beneath the surface. Deals with tough themes and does so unflinchingly while also producing a series of elevated moments more akin to the A24 horror films of today. Brutal, tense and well written. It’s a B movie that flexes its big budget muscle and pretty convincingly so… 6.8/10. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 05/01/25 Full Review Audience Member This is a wild one! Rarely am I lost for words. Super dark and unsettling. Absolutely worth a watch! Rated 4 out of 5 stars 04/17/25 Full Review vittorio A This movie for the most part was trash. The only redeeming point of this movie was Papa Corn. The amount of gore wasn't bad either. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 03/27/25 Full Review Daniel C This is one of the best movies ever. Why aren't they making more Papa Corn movies. Papa Corn is a badass. This movie is about a bunch of clowns killing and having fun. This is definitely a top ten favorite movies of mine. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/25/25 Full Review Rick B The raving reviews must be from people involved with the film. This is an absolute POS. Not even a so bad it's good flick, just trash. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/16/25 Full Review Jack S Not your typical slasher. This is realistic horror. Puts it in another realm of terror for the audience. Funny bits, blood, gore and mayhem! Old school backwood Texas horror vibes that would make Tobe Hopper blush to say the least. I've watched this movie so many times since my good friend kept talking it up. And since the 1st time, I was hooked. The 2nd one is in the works, and I put money on it that it will blow all main stream horror bs out of the water!
