The Killer with a Mallet is an exceptional film. The deeper meaning being fear is perfect and the way they show that is amazing. The way the people reacted to the “killer” although it may seem corny it is very real. There are people who react the exact same way to their fears- whatever they may be. I love how there’s little details in the movie that makes it better like how the “killer” is wearing a soccer jersey symbolizing how fear can be in the form of anything. I also love how you can see the “dead” characters in the frame after they have “died”, symbolizing that even if fear has “killed” you, you can still make friends and be successful. I also like how you can hear extra sounds or voices in the background symbolizing that this isn’t the only story being told about fear or emotions. I also like how you can see the cameraman in one shot symbolizing that fear happens every day and it just chooses to show this example. A very fine film, surpassed my every expectation for this movie. A solid 8.5/10

This movie is incredible, the details of everything is amazing. It really makes you think about how you react to fear. Just to think that every little detail in this movie matters is thought provoking and crazy. This is truly an underrated gem of a movie. On my top 20 of 2025.
