When the blood is black, there's no going back

Warning: Spoilers
Roger (Donavon Stinson) is the patriarch of the amusingly dysfunctional Slade family. A single dad who act as he is still in his adolescence. He was a self-centered girlfriend (Valerie Tian) who loves the bottle more than him. He takes them all on vacation to the cheapest cabin he can find on Craig's List. Jason (Matthew Nelson-Mahood) a dweeb friend of son Colin (Gabriel LaBelle ) joins the group. He is shy and likes daughter Summer (Lizzie Boys).

The cabin they rent is an area of missing people and we know that they are being fed to zombies by Lauren Holly as they are her family. We have no idea how they got that way, only that Lauren wears riot gear and a welders mask when she is around them. Of course, their paths comically cross.

This is a comedy-horror that I loved. The dialogue and characters were a joy to watch. Granted there were a few scenes that could have been done better and to be honest I was not aware of "Go-Fish" foreplay. It is such a thing. My only question was how does one run around at night with a welders' mask and dark lens?

Guide: F-word. No sex or nudity. Subtitles on Blu-ray in both English and Spanish.
