April Fool's Day

Serviceable slasher parody that is never quite as clever as it could have been or thinks it is. This is the first time I'm seeing this but I already knew the ending from a horror doc which I forgot the title, and that might’ve negatively affected my enjoyment. It isn't bad at all, but it isn't really great either. I guess I expected a lot more from this but I ended up being bored. For a 'slasher', it's quite dull, lacks violence, feels too light-hearted in tone, the kills are mostly off-screen, and I realize that's a dumb complaint knowing the context but I guess I was expecting a great slasher that subverts your expectations without sacrificing the elements that make slashers entertaining. Overall, I think this is one of those films that is only worth watching once but I still have to give props to the film for trying to do something a bit different.
