Slayers (2022)
5/10
Are people just going to fall for anything?
20 June 2023
K. Asher Levin's "Slayers" is a completely ridiculous movie that owns its silliness. What it makes me wonder is whether people will end up falling for anything. In this case, a group of influencers answer an ad, leading to the horror part (and there's no sympathy to be had for them, seeing what a bunch of shallow, empty-headed people they are). One could use this to point to internet ads that lure people into traps.

Anyway, it's not any masterpiece. If you're looking for something totally over-the-top, then this will be the movie for you.

In case you were wondering: yes, Lydia Hearst (Liz) is the great-granddaughter of a certain media mogul satirized by Orson Welles. Ol' Bill probably would've gotten a shock to not only see his granddaughter denounce him as a capitalist pig after getting kidnapped, but later appear in John Waters's audacious movies.
