My notes

I’d only seen part of this years ago and mentally slotted it in with similar meta-horror films The Final Girl and Cabin in the Woods.

While enjoyable, I don't think that association really counts. This is more of an inversion without any of the genre commentary I would expect from a deconstructionist meta film.
