Another Simple Favor has been described as a black comedy-mystery film and a comedy crime mystery thriller by various online sources. Personally, I would describe it as a gorgeously filmed, diva-licious, Agatha Christie style horror romp.
Continuing the adventures of friends/rivals Stephanie (Anna Kendrick) and Emily (Blake Lively), this recent release finds the latter getting out of jail and rushing headfirst into a lavish wedding ceremony in Capri. Of course, a deadly secretive narrative hides beneath the overwhelming joy of the occasion.
Manipulated into attending, along with a bevy of other guests including Emily’s ex-husband (Henry Golding), Stephanie soon finds herself the primary suspect as people begin to be brutally murdered.
Obviously knowing their target audience, the prelude to one of the film’s most gruesome killings features a long (and very revealing) shower scene with Golding’s Sean.
Nicely, this fleshy act of cleanliness is the welcomed contrast to the other reason to watch this sequel – Lively’s incredibly glamourous costumes.
Until the next time, SWEET love and pink GRUE, Big Gay Horror Fan
