So, 'JOKE' is this interesting gem from 2022, but it’s actually based on a 2020 TV special. The vibe is a strange mix of dark humor and horror, set in a post-corona world where laughter feels like a distant memory. The pacing is slow but deliberate, almost methodical, which adds to the unsettling atmosphere. You get this sense of dread layered over the comedian’s journey, really exploring how the pandemic changed everything—including our relationship with comedy. The practical effects are surprisingly effective for a TV movie, and the performances have this raw, almost desperate energy that matches the storyline. It’s not your typical horror flick, and that’s what makes it stand out in a crowded genre.
Post-corona themes resonate throughout.Unique blend of horror and comedy.Interesting use of practical effects.
