Rating: 2/5 --
So much obvious thought has gone into making the film visually striking that the script seems to have gone unread. There's no other explanation for the woeful stupidity of some of the characters' actions and the blandness of the dialogue.

Rating: 3/5 --
A straightforward, slickly edited psycho-killer flick with moments of razor-sharp tension and a welcome appearance from Alien star Veronica Cartwright as Timlin's granny.

Rating: C+ --
While its tone wildly varies, when it comes to the glut of horror remakes, it's a slight step ahead of the standard batch.

Rating: 2/5 --
It's an odd, if somewhat original, way of playing with sequel conventions: the plot exists in a reality where the original film also exists. But outside of knowing winks, this is cookie cutter carnage.

4 stars out of 5 -- Irreverent but fully conversant with the slasher rulebook, the 2015 TOWN somehow manages to be scary, gory and funny.

Clever enough, but forgets to be exciting.

Knowledge of the first film probably helps, but it's a nifty little genre experiment nonetheless.
