THE JOKESTERS is a really boring indie flick, a film that mixes comedy and horror unsuccessfully and is set in the usual and cliched cabin in the woods. A bunch of masked pranksters decide to scare their buddies in rather interminable prank scenes which take up the whole first half of the running time. Eventually some genuine nastiness begins but the film abruptly ends just as it feels like it might be getting interesting. This is an obvious film and a tedious exercise in time-wasting.
