It's so so silly, but is admirably and solidly executed. The practical effects of the killer jeans are a blast and really make the whole movie enjoyable. It has a decent amount of gore, and a pretty good cast. Final girl Romane Denis plays a down to earth and likable protagonist and I can appreciate the movies' attempts to poke fun at YouTube culture.
The narrative is standard slasher style, but it does have some sort of ethical message buried in there somewhere, although it's a bit too half arsed to make an impact.
Overall, Slaxx is a fun time, and is wonderfully bizzare. I predict it will have a cult following before long!
