GetAWAY (2020)

Some college kids head out to a remote location to film a horror movie. What they don't know is that a real killer is filming their deaths.
Indy film, so I'm reviewing on a curve.
The script tries, but it gets dragged down by bad acting and bad dialogue. Plus, whatever film schools or colleges these indy filmmakers attend need to immediately start adding storytelling classes. Lesson 1 should be: "Not every story needs a twist." Lesson 2: "If you are lying to your audience, you're probably not telling a good story." Lesson 4: "Twists should be unpredictable."
Skip this film and watch Scream instead. It's basically the same movie, but much better.
