If you're looking for some dumb fun, but don't want to make a commitment, check out "Silent But Deadly".
The main story is only about 45 minutes long, and then there are some after credits scenes.
It's an irreverent and ridiculous movie. It smartly pokes fun at a lot of stuff, but in a dumb way.
The acting in this movie is over the top. The jokes are over the top, and most of them lack any sense of subtlety. Nothing in this movie is taken seriously. That said, there's really a lot to like about this movie.
There's some interesting world building surrounding the mimes in this film. If this was a more serious film it could have been compelling, but for the most part it's played off as a joke. By more serious, I mean more along the lines of the classic clown flick "Stitches".
The characters are very overt archetypes for a cabin in the woods slasher, all of them played for laughs. My favorite of them is probably Gary, the guy who somehow gets invited to everything, but nobody knows how, why, or who invited him.
The mime kills or attempts to kill a couple of characters in a creative fashion.
This is a comedic horror film for fans of films like Bacon Head (2001) and Airplane, it's outlandish and nonsensical and a little non-sequitur.
It feels like a movie that had much more imagination than it could pull off with its budget, but knew it and in knowing it kept it short and stuck to the bits it could pull off.
I think that the mime could have been cast better and utilized more, but overall the actor does a decent job.
There's no nudity, there's very little in the way of gore and blood, most of the adult content in this stems from language and humor. It's fast paced. It's not a bad way to spend an hour, I enjoyed myself much more than I expected to.
