'Killer Book Club' elects to be more of a carbon copy of things flipped before in every way possible for years.

There is talent in Killer Book Club, but it's completely unfocused and scattered, more concerned with diluting the plagiarism of Scream than in doing something truly original. [Full review in Spanish]

Rated: 2/5

It's by the numbers and there's nothing special about it.

Bloody Disgusting

Just another shallow Scream and I Know What You Did Last Summer wannabe that struggles to maintain its own establishing rules, no better nor worse than middle-of-the-pack anonymity.

Rated: 2.5/5

This kind of thing has been done often enough since Scream emerged from the hyper-self-aware 1990s, so it's unclear why this movie was made.

Rated: 2/5

KILLER BOOK CLUB does little to encourage its audience to flip over to the next page.

A Scream/I Know What You Did Last Summer ripoff with incompetent characters injected with way too much cliches and stupid decisions. The main lead is so helpless and pathetic for the most parts of the running time until she had her forced "Final Girl" moment.

Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars

A hypocrite movie where the protagonists complain about the horror genre as full of repetitive cliché, and then everything in this movie is copied from other horror movies. 😂😂😂😂😂😂 The emo guy dropping the mask in the library is taken from Scream(or also scary movie).

This is about as derivative of Scream (1996) as possible. It offers nothing new to the concept and rigidly sticks to the self-aware nonsense that has been overdone in the Scream franchise already. It is not scary, it is not gory, the running around isn't exciting and the characters are deliberately stereotypes and lack any depth whatsoever. The production (sound, costume, camerawork etc) is high enough quality and the acting is perfectly serviceable. It really fails on originality and engagement. There is nothing that grabs you and makes you actually want to watch the film or care about what's happening. I put all these failings down to bad writing and to a lesser extent bad direction.

Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars
