Produced by James Gunn.
I’m sold on this from the premise of “What if Superman, but it’s a horror story?”

I am completely on board with this. It’s not every day you have a trailer that has a twist ending, in that it totally subverts your expectation of what the movie is within 2 minutes and 30 seconds.

Awesome idea for a film. I do with the trailer played it a little less like a generic horror movie, but I’m still very much looking forward to it.

Well, it’s out. Saw it last night, was pretty good. It’s pretty much exactly what was promised in the trailer, with the possibility of getting more.

I just came from it. It's decent. It's basically What If Superboy was Michael Myers. If that sounds interesting to you, you'll have a good time with it. There's not much to it, it's barely over 90 minutes--but superpowers as a slasher flick was entertaining enough. Ending {Spoiler} was pretty ballsy in that they set up the only way he can be stopped and it just fails. He wins. Presumably the world is f***ed. Especially cuz the tease other psycho JLers in a kinda hilarious surprise Rooker appearance where he's an Alex Jones analogue.

Didn't take long for the anti-Gunn brigade to start:
"Something something glorification of torturing women something something..."

One of her reasons, unspecified...seem to be “a safety issue”.

IIRC she claimed to have been threatened by James Gunn supporters after she took part in the campaign to get him fired from GOTG3, and again when she expressed her disgust that he was hired for Suicide Squad 2 and rehired by Marvel. Of course, making a big public fuss about not wanting to review a movie Gunn produced and throwing shade on Suicide Squad 2 is a great way to avoid a repeat.

The fact she actually saw the thing, taking a place from someone who DID want to see it is just silly even if nobody deserves an outpouring of abuse from people about their views.

Personally, I think she's just clickbaiting.

Personally, I think she's just clickbaiting. Oh, probably. But as a former full time film critic, I find it really disrespectful to do that.

I read a plot outline on Wiki and...eh, I'll probably put this on as background noise one night when it reaches cable.
I did see one of the more graphic scenes floating around on YouTube and at least the effects look good for what they are.
