(You'll know what I mean if you've seen both of those movies.) Thank you Fortuano for recommending this"

Ready for your deadtime story?Story/Writing: ★★★ (3 / 5)
Acting: ★★★ (3 / 5)
Visuals: ★★★ (3 / 5)
Soundtrack: ★★★ (3 / 5)
Overall: ★★★ (3 / 5)
There is a hint of Evil Dead (in some of the shots), a hint of The Thing (in a couple of the creatures), and probably a hint of many other notable horror films in this one. Overall a decent horror / black comedy, with a dash of "splatstick" (splatter + slapstick) at times."
