This film pissed me off. For months I scrolled past it going, "Nah, that seems super lame," so I didn't get to see this masterpiece as soon as I should have.

One of the greats! Love this film.
I agree. It was refreshing to see a movie make fun of the horror tropes.
And with lines like this, "Oh hidy-ho officer, we've had a doozy of a day. There we were minding our own business, just doing chores around the house, when kids started killing themselves all over my property."
Cracks me up.
And it successfully negotiates a tricky change of gears for the second half which many films would struggle with.
Darn kids keep on killing themselves on my property
I love this movie! I quote it often but nobody gets the references 😔
It's oddly a cult classic.
I'll take the downvotes, I couldn't stand this movie. I might give it another shot because I normally love Alan Tudyk but none of the jokes landed for me the first time around.
I only lament that I have but one down vote to give.
