However, a mysterious masked killer emerges from the shadows to grant their death-wish in a more terrifying fashion than they could ever have imagined. Misfit Archie, model Samantha, wide-boy Kenny, star pupil Ashleigh, conflicted Sachin, goth-girl Jasmine, and weakling James are all battling their own private demons, from eating disorders to lost parents. But as a much deadlier assailant hunts them down one by one, their quest for death becomes a desperate fight for their lives. Can these friends survive long enough to discover what they have to live for? Or will their bleeding hearts be brutally slashed wide open?

Critic Reviews
-
Michael Dequina, TheMovieReport.com
The overly familiar can make for an entertaining ride all the same with the right amount of slick style and intelligent inspiration.
-
Philip French, Observer [UK]
It's an indifferent example of the familiar slasher horror stuff that won Jamie Lee Curtis the title "Scream Queen" in the 1970s and later reached its peak in Wes Craven's Scream tetralogy.
-
Charlotte O'Sullivan, This is London
The problem lies with writer/director Arjun Rose, whose opportunism is matched only by his indifference to logic.
-
Cath Clarke, Guardian [UK]
It's a bit like being in a room with a group of stoned people at a YouTube party, replaying the best bits of their favourite movies.
-
James Bramble, Little White Lies
Neither homage or reinvention, A walking, talking cliché with little to say about truth or fiction.
