The. Slashening released in 2015, is actually very good. I saw it on BluRay in 2021 and it was fantastic.

Without ruining the plot, it's a parody of Slasher movies and it knows it. It actually puts the females in male roles and male in female roles in sex scenes and it's funny. It really is funny. It's because it doesn't work and doesn't make much sense, and the film is aware of it, that is why it's funny.

It's a typical slasher film, obviously smaller budget and smaller tighter movie shots...but it works. If you understand it's a small budget film and give it a fair chance, you will enjoy by yourself or with friends. Thank me later.

9 out of 10. It's just a fun good time.

Were you trying to make this movie as lame as possible? Because you sure succeeded.

Breaking up with her boyfriend, a woman joins her girlfriends at a sleepover party and try to help her get over the situation, but as the night goes on and they start to disappear they realize someone might be lurking around the party killing them off one-by-one for nefarious reasons and have to try to get away to survive the night.

This was a pretty solid slasher comedy. What works best here is the willingness to embrace the silly side of the scenario and get quite goofy which can produce some genuine laughs. From the opening seduction attempt that goes wrong, the sing-a-long in the car-ride or the confrontation with the police officer, these all offer up the kind of film this is going to be quite easily and early. This becomes all the funnier the longer it goes on here, including the antics at the party between each other girls or the hilarious efforts of the best friends to try to make up with each other after learning of the betrayal all tend to go for a high dose of zaniness that's quite enjoyable and appealing. Continually going along with this kind of silly and whacked out scenarios, these go along quite well with the parody-based genre humor employed as well where a lot of the scenes here are twisted and goofy examples of genre scenes. Opening with shots of a killer whacking people with a boombox or the unbelievably funny running gag with the pizza deliverymen gives this a highly enjoyable slice of genre setups with outright silliness. That carries on into the finale where the various figures left alive are involved with the killer which manages to not only get somewhat chilling with the killer popping out unexpectedly while still having some fun with setting up the various tropes and expectations featured here. Overall, these are what hold this one up for the most part. There are some issues with the film. One of the main problems is the low-point in the running time where the pace drops off and tends to forget a lot of its intentions to get through a cheating side-story that doesn't need to be there. This doesn't provide the film with much in the name of either goofy antics or slasher setups which tends to cause the pacing to lag considerably during this section. As well, the film tends to go for the joke far more often than the scares which might not be as appealing to some who will want a more realistic effort as the preponderance of silliness might be quite off-putting for those that prefer the more straightforward genre efforts. These are all that's wrong with it.
