Review of Afterparty (2013) by Damir A — 31 Oct 2014

Decent slasher-thriller from Spain. Reasonably interesting and entertaining: good setup, decent amount of intrigue and tension. Doesn't degenerate into the usual gory death-a-minute cliche of the average slasher.

Also has some comments to make on the pluses and minuses of stardom, and the irrationality of fans. Good conclusion.

However, the twist is fairly predictable. Even before things started getting suspenseful in the back of my mind I kept thinking, based on the synopsis "What if..?". After the twist, things get a bit silly, and this lets down all that went before.

Decent performances.
