The French director's latest film shown at the Boston Underground Film Festival
is about a group of five people who are wearing costumes and have gone on a
retreat to learn how to work better as a team. They sit around a campfire and
tell each other scary stories. The film uses a clever sense of humor and
exaggeration to make fun of superhero movies and their fans, as well as making
fun of how lazy some movies are made.
The movie also makes fun of some other types of stories. Sometimes the movie
feels like it loses its way, but it still manages to be a funny and clever
satire. |
