Leave your thoughts about Vicious Fun.
| Paste MagazineNatalia KeoganThe gritty, glowing neon textures of the ‘80s cover practically every frame of director Cody Calahan’s Vicious Fun, a horror-comedy caper that lovingly sends up the era’s genre tropes while never breaching egregious self-indulgence. |
| The GuardianLeslie FelperinOnce the bloodletting starts, Calahan interleaves it with witty asides and the pacing picks up a lot, all combining to make this impish if flyweight entertainment. |
| Movie NationRoger MooreSo what we have here is a tolerably efficient horror title — not scary, not that suspenseful, just gory — that fails to deliver on the promise that casting that rascal Koechner makes. Not bad, but not exactly good, either. |
| RogerEbert.comSimon AbramsIf you enjoy watching barrel-penned fish get got with a BB gun, you're bound to love Vicious Fun. Vicious Fun courts that kind of glib dismissal since so much of the movie reassures viewers that its creators are also addicted to the formulaic slasher movies that they kind of, sort of mock. |
| User ReviewZhiserionSmart, well-paced, funny, bloody, good music and cool characters. I absolutely recommend this movie. |
