This had the exact vibe I was expecting from a horror comedy of this nature after watching the trailer. Not necessarily predictable... but expected.
The story was pretty engaging and fun, but I did find myself a tad bored at times and it also felt a little longer than it was... which tells me the pacing could have been improved upon. I thought the acting was decent to good for the genre, we don't need academy recognized performances here.
By far the most successful part of this movie were the practical effects. They were not scared to go full force with them and I found them to be supper successful on multiple levels.
This was a fun, brainless, almost nostalgic feeling flick that has some really dope visuals for your eyes to feast upon. Although it had the potential to round out to be something pretty special, I think it landed pretty middle of the road. 5.5 rounding down to a 5, would recommend.
