A trio of small-time thieves infiltrate a fancy party being held at a posh Malibu mansion disguised as caterers. Things turn nasty after the trio find out much to their horror that the guests at said party are actually recovering serial killers.
Writer/director Chris von Hoffman relates the delightfully demented story at a zippy pace, adroitly crafts a creepy and unsettling tone, generates a good deal of tension, and further spices things up with wickedly amusing touches of inspired dark humor.
Moreover, it's acted with zest by an enthusiastic cast: Sam Strike as the desperate Casper, Virginia Gardner as the perky Iris, Brandon Michael Hall as the easygoing Dodge, Kian Lawley as smarmy jerk Elliot Dawson, Erin Moriarty as sassy rebellious teen daughter Alexis, Robin Tunney as the sweetly composed Roxanne, Julian McMahon as the sinister Patrick, and Lance Reddick as the suave Milo. The moments of brutal and gory violence pack a savage punch. A twisted treat.
