Psycho Sleepover is a 2008 horror comedy film directed by Adam Deyoe and Eric Gosselin. The movie is written by Eric Gosselin, Daniel Rascon, and Adam Deyoe. It was produced by Lucky Day Studios, and features a cast that includes Felissa Rose, Paul Rust, and Rachel Castillo. The movie revolves around a group of teenage girls who attend a slumber party at a haunted house that belonged to a serial killer named Russ Thorn. Russ Thorn was known for his bizarre techniques of killing his victims, and stories suggest that his spirit still haunts the house.
The girls who attend the slumber party are stereotypical teenage characters; each has their unique personality, but all are obsessed with boys and having a good time. The movie quickly establishes the relationships between these girls, their insecurities, and their vulnerabilities. It becomes apparent that each one is seeking attention and validation from their peers.
As the night progresses, strange things begin to happen in the house, and the girls start disappearing one by one. It's soon evident that Russ Thorn's spirit is present in the house, and he's targeting the girls. The remaining girls band together to fight for their survival and to try to find a way out of the house.
The movie's tone is a mix of humor and horror, with a focus on the former. The comedy is slapstick at times, and the humor is often derived from the characters' naivety and lack of self-awareness. The horror aspect of the movie is light, with the majority of the jump scares coming from sudden appearances of characters, rather than gore or violence.
The movie is shot in a low budget style, with most of the scenes taking place in a single location. The set design is simple, but effective, and the makeup and special effects on Russ Thorn's spirit are eerie.
The standout performance in the movie comes from Felissa Rose, who plays the role of the house's owner. She brings a level of intensity to her role that elevates the movie and makes it more engaging. Rachel Castillo and Paul Rust are also enjoyable in their roles and bring some humor to the movie.
Overall, Psycho Sleepover is a fun, lighthearted horror comedy that doesn't take itself too seriously. While it may not be a groundbreaking film in the horror genre, it's an enjoyable way to spend an hour and a half. If you're looking for a low budget movie to watch with friends and have a few laughs, this one might be worth checking out.
