The Last Horror Movie
The Last Horror Movie is a poor man’s Funny Games.
Here’s the set-up: you start out watching a really bad horror flick about a murderer on the loose in a diner, when suddenly it’s interrupted by a smug British git who tells you that he’s taped over the movie you rented from…wherever. And then you get to watch his DIY documentary about his life as a serial killer. The footage features a few stabbings and strangulations, but 85% of it is comprised of him pontificating directly into the camera. The only thing worse than being trapped with a serial killer is being trapped with a pedantic serial killer.
The Last Horror Movie ends in the worst way possible. I’m going to spoil the ending if you read further, but it’s for your own good. I do this out of love. He tells you that he watched you rent the movie, followed you home, and OMG HE COULD BE RIGHT OUTSIDE YOUR WINDOW WATCHING YOU!!!111BBQGODZILLA!
I don’t think it’s out of the question that the people who are responsible for making this movie should be hunted down and punished by vigilantes.

Thank you for saving us the pain. And the stalking.
I’m in your vcr, killing your movie!
