The idiot best friend was hilarious

Warning: Spoilers
You know in these kinds of movies that the best friend of the lead is usually always wiped out midway through the film. But the demise of this specific best friend was such a hilarious and enjoyable watch solely due to her sheer bravado combined with her utter stupidity.

She finds out online that the handyman she just slept with is a psycho killer. (Why she slept with him is just as entertaining, but i'll get to that in a moment).

After finding out his shady murderous past, rather than alert the police she heads straight for the house he's working on and when she sees he's all alone there, at night, she boldly shouts to him his real name and waltzes right up in his face and says "You murdered your wife!" Oh you silly, brave woman lol.

Next thing she knows her body is tied up and wrapped like a sausage in plastic up to her head and she actually asks him during this "What are you doing?!" Um sweetie, he's murdering you, can't you tell?! But even as he's about to snuff the life out of her, she still has that bravado and shouts to him "I hope they choke you with your tool belt!" Oh lord, she was dumb as dirt, but what a defiant fighter till the end!!

The night before this all happened she slept with him because she knew he had the hots for her best friend and was all jealous about it. So I guess she felt sleeping with the guy would show her, but all she wound up showing her was her hanging plastic wrapped corpse in the closet the next night when her friend stumbled upon it while hiding from the psycho handyman.

The lead girl was no better either. Once her boyfriend leaves for the hardware store for more paint and she's all alone in the house with the psycho handyman, out of the blue she decides to take a bubble bath while leaving the bathroom door open and acts shocked and angry when she catches him peeking in on her and screams at him. (Oh you so wanted him to come in you hussy!)

The clueless husband arrives home just in time before things got bad in the bathroom but he doesn't bother to question why his girlfriend is taking a bubble bath in the middle of the day when alone in the house with the psycho handyman.

Earlier he even told her how he sensed that the handyman wanted to "get in her panties" (his own words), so why would she decide to take a bubble bath while alone in the house with him after knowing this?! The truth was because she wanted him bad and why she "accidentally" left that door open.

Then there's the ending where he took about 5 or 6 nail gun shots to his midsection yet there's not a drop of blood anywhere and he's perfectly fine in the next scene that looks like it was setting up for a sequel.

Oh and then there's the house itself.....towards the very end, it looked like the same dump it did inside when they started the work in the beginning, but the couple was raving how it was just about finished lol. What?!

Watch this one for the laughs.
