Copycat

About This Movie

Copycat (2015) dives into a fascinating piece of indie horror history. The film unfolds through the lens of a teenage filmmaker's ambitious venture in 1990, where he raised a pretty impressive $100,000 to make a horror flick. The atmosphere is thick with nostalgia, and you can really feel the raw passion he had, even if the execution didn’t land as intended. The pacing drags a bit in parts, but it’s all part of the charm, really. There are bits of interviews that reveal the darker side of chasing dreams in the film industry. What stands out is how it blends personal storytelling with the broader themes of ambition and failure, making it distinct in its own right. It's a unique exploration of a cult classic that never quite made it.
