It's....something

Warning: Spoilers
This movie feels like a child explaining something where they go with the story but forget something so go back and add it without context.

I wanted to like the movie but it was hard to get a story straight, you know a friend died and they talked about a friend that died in a prank years before, then they skip to mild harrassment for 30 seconds, pizzas ordered on them, prostitute sent to the one. The recently dead guys not girlfriend, but maybe something went on, comes back to town and bumps into the pranked dead guy's twin brother (yeah he's got a twin now). Her response is she has seen a ghost and the twins response is yeah I look just like him apparently (later find out their twins) but it was a chance meeting on the street to a woman he claims to recognize from a yearbook, they have sex on the third time meeting but every meeting he yelled at her and the alternated being nice, bipolar like at best.

So the friends start dying one at a time and they think it's revenge for all the pranks they played on people in highschool which arent so much of pranks as behaviour of future serial killers. The audience sees the masked killer but none of the friends that live have seen it yet near the end where masks start popping up they're all suspicious that the ones with the masks are the killer, this makes no sense because the mask has no context to the characters. Also one dies from a liposuction kill with all sorts of inaccuracies in the scene, but there is no doctor that would perform it on the girl as she has little to no fat at all on her.

The actors tried, they weren't too but they weren't awful and I honestly don't know if it's them or a reflection of a disjointed script, it's a case of the movie could've have been ok but looks like no one knew where the story was going, some sort of improv writing I guess

I give it 5 because I did want to like it but. It just couldn't figure out where it was going and it offered no closure, I assume because the writers didn't take the time to remember that there was a killer with notice apparently.
