So just finished watching EMC and wow what a ride! Before starting this review a few Content Warnings for the film (takes a deep breath) sexually explicit language, nudity, violence, gore, date rape, spiking, cannibalism, school shootings, bullying and Alec Baldwin, all performed with it's tongue firmly pushed through it's rotten cheek. If easily offended this is not the movie for you. (It's a Troma movie, what did you expect? Driving Miss Daisy?)
A simple comedy/horror tale of a vegan goth school girl who constantly stuck in horror movies (as she lets us and the film crew know via numerous breaking of the 4th wall) who's only escape is to commit suicide and awake in the next movie. Sort of a quantum leap of horror. All she has to do is win the binge n purge contest to receive a handgun to blow her brains out. Simple right? Well no this is a movie that deals with high school and horror movies and the references come thick n fast from mean girls, battle royale (gotta sell those rights) to the horror side with the purge and warriors plus a bucket load of Troma films to name a few. So along the way falling in love with the delightfully mad cannibal teacher miss Campbell, getting revenge on the school bullies, dealing with the school rapist, dealing with her 18th birthday and sticking an electric bread knife somewhere you really shouldn't it ain't a stroll in the park.
End of the day it rude, lewd, crude, disgusting but I have to admit I found it funny. It really doesn't care if you're offended. Some good sfx and sound fxs (one sound effect in particular turned my stomach lol) and a strong 3rd act.
