A quick, gleefully nasty little shock-comedy that winks at horror fans while splattering them with cheap, cheerful gore.

Tagline: Don't open the book.
Overview: When her best friend turns to her for help, a tortured young girl shares her darkest, most powerful secret. This was a mistake.
How it feels: Dark, absurd, campy and satirical. Brisk and easy to follow.

Note: Written by AI, so it can be wrong. Full breakdown
