Critics Consensus

An uneven blend of horror and comedy that fails to satisfy on either front, Slaughterhouse Rulez aims for B-movie fun but doesn't make the grade.

If I was in high school, I would have been super happy to discover this film in the video store library.

A star-studded cast and a high-concept premise make promises that "Slaughterhouse Rulez" ultimately can't keep.

It looks to me like something that lost its way in the edit... overall I think it doesn't hang together.

Posh boarding school is so short of funds the headteacher allows fracking to commence in the neighbouring wood, little knowing that the resulting tremors would release some nasty beasts from under the ground.

The screenplay by Crispian Mills, Henry Fitzherbert, and Luke Passmore has a very difficult time keeping focus on its through-line, digressing into tangents and unfunny beats.

A waste of a lot of great talent, and a waste of your time, should you choose to watch it.

Silly, dark humor and a fun film. I loved it.

What a great laugh! What a great cast, and a funny visual story. Like the school house itself, you are not supposed to take it that serious, what with all the rules, and "hiearchy" -- the film makes fun of it in such funnily haunting way, comparable to simon pegg's other movies and stranger things as a mash up, what a great jolly fun to watch! 5 stars!

It's a B movie that tries to mix campy gore and humor...all at a boarding school.

More goofy than the usual Simon Pegg and Nick Frost fare. Had it been shorter, would have helped.

Extremely silly but exactly as it means to be. I was thoroughly entertained. Clearly pokes fun at horror movie and boarding school tropes. Michael Sheen is incredible.
