Smothered (2016)
8/10
Eat your heart with a plastic spork

Warning: Spoilers
During a horror-fest convention in Louisiana, a number of participants pay for their RV spot by scaring the residents of the park. However, things backfire as they are the ones getting scared and killed.

The film is done in a grindhouse fashion. It uses 4 real horror film stars and supplements them with some fake ones. Michael Berryman played himself, but was not one of the four. Chunks (Rachel Alana Handler) is a woman who really lost her leg. Smothered was the preferred way to die as the M.O. of Dee Dee (Brea Grant) who had a huge fake chest attached to her torso...no those weren't hers. Kane Hodder, R.A. Mihailoff, Malcolm Danare, and Don Shanks played themselves. Bill Moseley, who has been in enough horror films to have played himself, did not, but rather played the part reserved for Robert Englund.

The film had promise, but didn't deliver. It needed a metal soundtrack for one thing. The humor didn't work too well in this comedy/slasher.

Guide: F-word. Sex. Fake nudity.
