Didn't help direct spring breakers*Dave Franco
James Franco is the director of many films nobody has seen
It was OK. Probably would've liked it better if the majority of the characters in it weren't so thoroughly unlikable.
Slasher horror allows for 1 total dikkhead character who you root for to die and the rest of the cast needs to be varying degrees of likable enough that their deaths upset the audience. They fukked up that simple formula.
I did like the killer dude though.

Most of the film could be summarized as 'act 1 of a better film'. They tried to go for a slow-burn twist into the actual horror part of the film but it felt like too much time was spent showing them fukk up and fukk up some more so by the time the final act starts there's almost no reason to care if any of them will make it out.
The film ends with a more interesting premise than 80% of the film taking place before it, so I do think this has some sequel potential.
Random side-note: Toby Huss might be close to being a top 5 "that guy" actor.
The ending stuff was the most interesting part of the movie and I would be up for a sequel with better characters than the ones in this movie.
The whole movie felt like a prologue. The burn was a little too slow for my liking, but could potentially be the launchpad to a pretty good slasher series.
