A lonely guy finds an invitation to a Halloween party in the street and decides to go. It turns out to be a bunch of bored and pretentious art students who are planning to murder whoever turns up as some kind of artistic statement. They tie him up, get extremely wasted and then everything explodes in a chaotic bloodbath. The satirical poke at the arty crowd is pretty obvious and not as witty as it might like to be, but there are comedy moments that work well and they all involve the hapless Chris as the intended victim. It's low budget stuff so the acting isn't great and it's a bit slow to begin with. The gore is pretty inventive if you stick with it for the bloody finale and there are a few laughs along the way.
