Leslie Vernon is my hero

This movie is freaking hilarious. I don't consider it a good horror movie, but as a comedy it succeeds really well.

Most of the movie is filmed in a documentary style, as a film crew follows around a man who wants his legacy to be remembered much like Freddy Krueger and Jason. He puts a real face and some reality into horror movies by explaining how victims are chosen, how they train and how they prepare.

This sane look into an insane action is why this movie is so funny. It actually makes sense and your mind starts to wonder and think about all the other horrors to see if maybe Michael Myers could have been wearing a bullet proof vest and perhaps he could have done other things to make him seem supernatural.

The end is a bit predictable, but it doesn’t detract from the movie being fun to watch.
