Killer Date

About This Movie

Killer Date is this odd gem in the horror genre that dives into the mind of an aspiring serial killer, Ed Larson. It’s not your typical slasher flick; instead, it explores the uncomfortable awkwardness of social interactions through the lens of a killer's date gone wrong. The pacing is interesting, balancing moments of dark humor with genuine tension. I liked how the film plays with themes of isolation and desire, underlined by some surprisingly effective practical effects. The performances, especially from the lead, bring a strange charm to this unsettling premise. It’s this blend of horror and cringe that makes it stand out, almost like a dark comedy with a twist.
