Scrawl (2015)

Teenage Simon makes a comic with his friend Joe. Then real life starts mirroring the comic, which is unfortunate since the characters are based on people they actually know and the comic is a slasher.

While the premise is interesting, the execution of it is confusing.  Adults are rude and dismissive of children, even when there is something important going on. Simon has a shitty mom who urges him to be friends with kids who dislike him.  Who is Hannah and where did she come from? Why are multiple girls killing people?  Why is Annie mean to everyone?  And why do all twenty or so characters, who we don’t have a good grasp of who they are or their motivation, all end up in the supermarket at the same time?

Be prepared for the scenes by the ocean where the sound of the waves are often louder that’s the dialogue. 

Ridiculous dialogue:

Simon:  Annie, peace?

Annie: Simon, die?

Thank you… for making me smile.
