Lowlifes (2024, USA), despite being just another slasher film, has a bit of a twist which makes it kinda interesting. The problem here is that the writer then failed to make use of an ideal opportunity for a double whammy. Instead she decided to incorporate a bit of a moral lesson. Things got somewhat worse when the writer / directors decided to explain the moral lesson to us "as if I'm five". That said, apart from a script which tied the film's hands behind its back (and did so immediately after almost delivering a knock-out) the film was decently directed, really well acted (given the script restraints) ,and had some kick-ass blood and guts effects. Even the cinematography and cutting contributed in spades to atmosphere and tension. It's really sad that the script did not capitalise on a brilliant idea. With the correct and logical second reveal, even the lacking dialogue would not have prevented this film from being an 8/10 film. As it stands, 6.5/10. Ps nothing against the writer in general, as her work on "The Influencer" was solid.
