Incredibly moving tale about two best friends with a passion for mini golf who rescue their friend/manager from becoming the incarnate of a demon! What more could you want from a horror-comedy.
Imagine the Scary Movie series crossed with Superbad ruled by the threat of a demonic lord, with a touch of Happy Gilmore - to me that is Gothic Slayers.
The film, acted with the utmost sincerity, is filled with ridiculous circumstances - thus expounding upon its comedic elements. You have no choice but to fall in love with each and every quirky character; I found myself charmed even by the archetypal supporting characters (the soothsaying jailbird, the sage crazy man, the air headed parents, etc.)
It perfectly toes the line between absurdity and authenticity. Funny with paranormal and occult activity, it never felt like I was a child being walked through the plot (and if one does you probably have to do some inner work and find the humor in it lol). I hope those who stumble upon this movie find it as endearingly delightful, funny, and spooky as I did.
