In the midst of filming a low budget slasher film sequel, the cast and crew begin to be stalked and murdered in the same manner in which the characters die in the script.
While certainly not overflowing with originality or premium, high cost production values, if one sits back and absorbs Fright Flick for what it is and was intended to be, it could very well be the most enjoyable slasher film of the year.

*This review for the satirish Fright Flick has been written by co-writer Ed Sum.
**Full disclosure: a DVD of this film was provided by Breaking Glass Pictures.
Director: Israel Luna.
Writers: Todd Jenkins (story), and Israel Luna (story).
Just imagine what happens when everyone, including their own grandma, has their own agenda and there is a movie within a movie going on at the same time. Israel Luna's Fright Flick gives some interesting satire in his look at the dirty goings on in making a low budget movie.
He puts the slick and grease back behind what's always been imagined in the slime and grime of wannabes with high egos, who are trying to make that big break. This film revolves around a low-grade slasher flick that turns b-grade when the production team starts making a sequel to their product and certain members are being killed for real and for unknown reasons.
