No bloody slashers have ever before been made in Lithuania. Takashi Miike’s die-hardest fan Jonas Trukanas accomplished his dream and independently created an inventively ripping horror thriller with a minimal budget.
Bewitching from the first minutes, the dynamic chase builds a scary atmosphere of danger, fear and horror, while also clinging to luck and chance. “Be the hunters, not the prey,” the school mistress ironically wishes them on the graduation day, when the damnably awesome classmates follow the tradition of renting a cottage for a weekend to celebrate their graduation. They end up in the middle of nowhere for an ultimate prom party. Unfortunately, they make some terribly wrong and naive mistakes on the way.
There is no mobile coverage there, as you may expect in line with all the unwritten rules. A mysterious masked savage suddenly shows up with the intention of conducting a stylish massacre. One by one, graduates are barbarously punished and axed for cynicism, arrogance, jealousy, debauchery, blackmail, filthiness, hatred, slandering, and gossiping. So many bright hopes, future plans and promising careers destroyed in just one fateful night at an illegal rave. Only shy Marius is destined to survive and turn misfortune to fortune. But why is the ruthlessly slashing serial killer protecting him?
Sparked by local myths and legends (co-written with Titas Laucius, director of “Parade” from the First Feature Competition), inspired by beloved classical slashers and enriched by morbid ironic horror, the film unites whole gang of talented Lithuanian youngsters, led by Gabija Bargalaitė after her immersive debut in “Pilgrims” (Winner of Venetian “Orizzonti”). A small indie gem with hidden easter eggs and uncredited cameos.

#PÖFF 影片推荐里说，导演是三池崇史死忠粉，看来这事不代表什么，我还马丁•斯科塞斯、大卫•林奇、大卫•芬奇、保罗•施拉德、丹尼斯•维伦纽瓦、伊利亚•卡赞、Sergei Loznitsa、娄烨、蔡明亮、法斯宾德、帕索里尼、安东尼奥尼、等等死忠粉呢
拙劣无趣的模仿，片长短起势晚节奏慢，几乎一无是处。
尊重艺术，爱护公物。面具杀人狂部分刻画真是蛮随便的，包括所谓反杀之类，但是纯粹的精致利己主义男主刻画挺好
贵在有自知之明没拍得又臭又长所以节奏还不错，不失幽默，但感觉就是讲善恶讲到最后直接fuck off了……好吧也不失为一种答案……
