AroView: The sixth film in a franchise which has often promised more than it has delivered, but this ‘reboot’ entry – the first in fourteen years – gleefully takes the concept to the next level.
As with the other instalments, there’s no trace of a psychopathic villain but instead a series of death traps for a cast of characters who have missed a previously scheduled appointment with fate. Originally spun out of a cast-off X-Files idea in the 90’s, it’s a running gag that is hilariously convoluted, spectacular and above all, gruesome.
“A spectacle, a joyride, and easily the funniest iteration in the franchise.” ~Nadir Samara, Screen Rant
“It is carnage for connoisseurs. Nothing in the series so far can quite prepare you for the intricate sadism of these set pieces.” ~Tim Robey, The Telegraph
“This movie does exactly what a horror reboot should, taking the best bits of the original and heading in a smart, inventive new direction. There’s minimal reliance on nostalgia. It’s daft as hell and a heck of a good time.” ~Olly Richards, Time Out
