The marketing was scarier than the movie. I was so excited for this film, however, WEAPONS itself was not what I had hoped for. It's marketed as a horror film, but really it's a "comedy drama with supernatural elements", as someone put it perfectly. I liked how long the film was, it made the theater experience fun. But it was all jump scares. No tension, no dread, which I was hoping for. It's like when an animated movie spends too long with the non-animated human cast for too long and you're waiting for the animated main cast to come back.
