Honestly, what on earth did i just watched?!?!

The film starts off with our 3 MLs without even exploring their characters for viewers to get invested in them, all we know is that they are a film club and they are out on Club Vacation because after this they are gonna be out in the Adultworld. They teased us in the beginning this will probably turn into a killer film. Then we got introduced to our FL and the dialogue interaction with our 3 MLs towards her was soo bad, it's soo unnatural, it looked like the scriptwriter never had a real interaction with a woman, i think it's because our 3 MLs are those virgin boys who never had a girlfriend before, that's probably why.

Then the filmed turn into a mystery for a bit then turned into a killer horror film, i don't even know what is happening and those old actors are bad at acting as killers too, everyone in this film is acting like anime characters, except they are not that why its soo bad, but whoever is the actress of Tasaki yuki, she's really cute thooo, i think i like her, she looks like a combination of Chuu and Kanna Hashimoto.

After this whole ordeal of chasing, killing then there's blood and shit, we found out that this whole situation was a big misunderstanding which was so OBVIOUS!!! because of what granny said when she was introduced and then they rewind back to where grandpa was introduced which is early in the film, just to show the other side of this movie how the misunderstandings happened.

Then we cut back where the film left off and all of the characters are sitting down for a hot pot, it's chill, nice, and cozy, they are eating and talking, getting to know each other, and then we get hinted at something, then sleep. Moments later, they finally revealed a plot twist with who's the real antagonist which was obvious as well, and what the motives are and connected the dots that were hinted at in the beginning, shit is happening, gore everywhere, police came and the movie ended with an open ending and our Main Male lead finally reunited with her crush happily.

To be honest, this was a bad film it looked like it was filmed by a bunch of amateurs that had a wacky idea and tried to turn it into a reality, and even though it came out really dumb, it was still fun, like dumb-fun, it's soo bad that it's good, that you can't even take it seriously, i don't even know if you're supposed to take this movie seriously and you're just having a good time laughing for how bad this movie was. That is my biggest compliment, yet the biggest diss for this film.
