This isn't challenging filmmaking, but for what it is - a shared social-media joke turned into a shared cultural joke - it's a pretty diverting way for horror fans to spend about 90 minutes.

Horror fans won't be disappointed by the film. It will scratch that horror itch until something better comes along.

You Might Be The Killer is a must watch, blood soaked love letter to the genre that proves the slasher is far from dead.

You Might Be the Killer is fun, yet forgettable, and that's a shame for the two leads who in my mind deserve better than the quirky characters roles they are resigned to.

Brett Simmons' You Might Be The Killer is not Cabin In The Woods 2.0, but that doesn't stop stay-up-late genre manipulation from scoring uptempo campfire thrills.

There were some cute moments, but overall, the film was far too broad, and I felt at one point it could better serve as an interactive stage play with its over the top physicality and splatter count.

this movie needs a sequel, and bad sequels like "Scream 5," "Scream 6," and "Scream 7" are unnecessary

A camp slasher with a vibe that reminds you of Disney Channel movies combined with Friday The 13th, a really fun experience but not enough to forget its cliches.

A clever concept, but shaky execution. It’s definitely made for horror fans, with plenty of references and deep cuts I appreciated. Some running gags (Steve the Kayak King, Jamie’s hole-digging skills, the ancient sheriff) really land, while others fall flat — not helped by some wooden performances, oddly including veteran Alyson Hannigan. Horror fans will find a few things to enjoy, but there are plenty of better horror comedies out there.
