This movie was better than most actual horror films out now.


I didn't know what to expect, when I watched this film. I watched it on a free movie app by the way, it was random and there were a lot of ads but I was glued to it. I know this is supposed to be black or dark comedy by I just felt like I was watching an actual horror film. But, I guess the comedic part is that it is supposed to be the idealistic 1950s and they are the "perfect" family, yet still cannibals.

You really feel for Micheal and at the end of the movie I figured right when his grandparents said he looked like his dad, that the grandparents are cannibals as well. The human sandwich was just the icing on the cake, poor Micheal I guess he is a vegetarian after all.

Also, the metaphors for molestation is a horror film within itself.
