Goofy, But Not As Fun As It Tries To Be
12 July 2020
I'm a big fan of the horror / comedy genre and have seen my share of teen movies. Basically, this is a Night of the Comet meets Road Warrior ripoff adding nothing particularly original or fun. The acting and writing is weak. The narration is a bad choice that doesn't work that seems more appropriate for a book, or something more appropriate for a narration. Apparently it was based off a graphic novel, which probably explains the narration but not why the TV show modeled that. Seems like they were also trying to ripoff a bit of Scott Pilgrim. Basically, I don't know why this is a show. Not the worst thing I've ever seen, but not particularly imaginative or fun. I mean, John Hughes can take a mundane subject and his writing and directing turned them into classic movie gems. This is not that.
