Better Watch Out

Better Watch Out is basically Home Alone as wish fulfillment. There's also a bit of Scream in there and, even though I've never seen it, maybe a little bit of Funny Games as well. I'm probably inclined to compare it to other movies because there really isn't anything new or original in it. I'm also not sure if the filmmakers thought they were making a statement about mental illness. I'm not sure what they were thinking or which characters they wanted the audience to root for. Because other than one shot in the last sequence, they seem to be on the side of a homicidal sociopath.
