Murder Party (2007)

Halloween Month Movie Marathon continues with the film Murder Party!

A lonely pathetic man finds an invitation to a murder party on Halloween and decides to dress up in costume and attend. Unbeknownst to him, though, the party consists of a small group of artsy friends looking to murder their surprise guest in the most creative way in order to win a grant.

This film felt like a movie about art people, made by art people. It was pretty low budget and spent a lot of time trying to build a mood instead of doing anything meaningful. It was entertaining to watch, mostly because I was interested to see how this loser of a protagonist escapes (or IF he even escapes).

This film was advertised as a comedy horror, but there were only a couple chuckle-worthy scenes. It didn't drag on and on, but it also didn't have much happening for 90% of the film. If you like your movies slow-paced, this might be of interest to you.
