Verdict on #AMFAD: All My Friends Are Dead
#AMFAD: All My Friends Are Dead is a horror thriller following a group of college friends who go away to celebrate a music festival. However, they get delayed and the Airbnb they book leads them to clash with a serial killer obsessed with punishing people with the seven deadly sins.
This slasher uses the typical college kids being picked off by a masked killer idea well. It creates a bunch of annoying, disposable students you don’t really care about but have a bigger secret as to why they have been selected. Once, we get into the picking them off, we get a great mask design, with a digital imprint of their pasts, a suspense race for survival too. All with the bigger mystery as to who is behind the mask. For a slasher, it brings the chaotic nature required, but it doesn’t seem to get the most out of wanting to use the seven deadly sins as motivation.
