Sequel????
Considering how well-thought out this movie was and how many potential genre conventions it brushed over (not to mention the sequel-specific conventions!), it sort of gives this movie the greatest narrative opportunity to have a sequel of any slasher film out there.
And yet I haven't heard a peep.
That's really disappointing. This film, even if it's not perfect, is one of the freshest most intelligent and most well-crafted "horror" films of the 21st century. It might not strictly count as horror, but it embraces its roots in a way common parodies (not including the abominations with "movie" in their titles) are loath to do. It didn't just deconstruct horror, it demonstrated it as well. Validated it, even - explaining away well-worn plotholes that the most famous slashers never bothered to explain themselves. How much did the marketing team fail that this didn't get the eyes it needed to make a sequel a possibility? Did they all die in a plane crash or something? Cuz I could sell this blindfolded, with my tongue cut out and my skin plagued with leprosy.
Seriously, how does Rob Zombie's bastardized Halloween Lame-tacular get rushed into a sequel, while this gem is allowed to fade into oblivion?!
