Stereotypes exist for a reason. Without them, You're Next would have very little to work with. Luckily the film uses what would be eye-rolling moments and turns them on their heads. It had a rather nestalgic feel, while feeling fresh at the same time. Solid effects and passable acting makes this a must for any genre fan.

**A messed up family, cleaned up by an outsider!** This kind of films is usually low rated by me. It's very rare that I find one good film and that happened to be this one. I was braced for another disappointment, then I totally got surprised when it reached half way mark. Good twist too. In fact, there are many twists in the final qua...

A release for which I'm very glad. Being in Australia, a horror movie in cinema is not common, there's rarely if ever more than two showing at the same time, a...

It has a lot going for it, but the parts that aren't quite so positive drag it down a lot. The horror aspects of <em>'You’re Next'</em> are good. All the deaths are pretty neat, with the villains certainly look the part. Sharni Vinson is memorable in the lead role of Erin, but she's really the only cast member that I enjoyed in this. ...

**What would happen if the main character of a horror movie wasn’t a moron? You’re Next answers that question with entertaining violence and clever stereotype subversion.** You’re Next begins as a typical horror slasher with an isolated group of family/friends falling under attack from masked axe-wielding murderers, but a couple of twi...

You’re Next is a classic slasher film that has brutal kills and suspense, but suffers with a lackluster story and disappointing performances. The story here is pretty generic with a group of unknown assailants brutally invading a home. There are some twists that the writers attempt to put into it, but most of them are pretty predictabl...
