Thriller is a Blumhouse film. I do like Blumhouse and they have some pretty cool ideas but sadly they don't always execute them well. You know a Blumhouse film is bad when they don't even have any cool ideas to put into a film.
You know the film will be a disaster when the opening is rather comical than serious. This film is a little over 80 minutes, but it's so uninteresting, it would rather focus on a group of unlikable teenagers who ruined a guys life rather than the killings. It's really obvious that some films struggle to balance elements of the slasher genre. This film suffers a lot.
Sadly the film feels very tame for a slasher film, it does have a couple of good kills but that's pushing it. There are few tolerable moments at the start of the film but it just deteriorates into chaos.
The twist regardless of it being obvious, makes the film an absolute let down more than it already is. The horror aspect is really non existent, it only exists in the killings. Even then there is no suspense really.
Overall it's just one to avoid. It's a rubbish film and a disappointment for Blumhouse. If you can make a drinking game out of this film, then perhaps there is some enjoyment to be had
