*Spoilers ahead* Dont be fooled. This movie is a political trope disguised as a horror movie. It's the ultra right winged conservatives VS. The progressive leftists. And no. It's not something the writers tried to hide. it's blatantly written into the dialog. Worst offense of all. it's absolutely riddled with plot holes. The movie starts off with the classic Father/Daughter duo moving to a new town after a tragic incident involving the mom. The daughter ends up becoming freinds with a group of liberal teens who undermine the values and traditions of their local town. Causing conflict and building tension between themselves and the local townsfolk. As the movie progresses, the group of teens are killed off in that satisfactory classic 80's bloodly slasher film way. Filled with gore and blood. That is until the daughter is the last one left alive. It is revealed that the townfolk are all part of a group of traditional extremists group of killer clowns who see the current generation as toxic, entitled spoiled brats who have ruined the towns old ways. And that this Mentality has carried on throughout the history of the town, quoting "first the dirty hobos who refused to leave, then the hippies preaching about peace and love, and now your generation." I talked about plot holes. In one instance, the female protagonist attempts to drive away in a car only to realize the vehicle is a manual transmission. She effortlessly starts the vehicle with no problem. However, she never once pushes in the clutch or acknowledges its presence. As she tries to force it into gear to escape, she breaks the fourth wall, shouting, "When your father tries to teach you how to drive a manual, you Fu**ing listen!" Well writers, that's not how a manual car works. And had you put a little more thought into it, it wouldn't have felt so awkward. This awkwardness is carried on to the end when, once again, the daughter escapes to another vehicle only to discover it too is a manual. But this time, her dad's with her, and he effortlessly guides her on how to start and drive it. (We all remember how many times we stalled out our first time learning how to drive a standard.) That being said, this is one plot hole but its one of those ones where they made such a spectacle of it and ingrained it into the story and character development that I feel it can't be ignored. Overall, the movies is okay. Would i pay to see I again? No.
