The Jokesters (2015/Cinedigm DVD)



Picture: B- Sound: B- Extras: B Film: C



What if a practical joke went horribly, terribly wrong? Such is the basis for the new found-footage film The Jokesters. Four good friends (a cast of unknowns) are the members of the successful Internet prank show PrankMasters. When the leader of the group, Ethan, announces that he is getting married and leaving the group, the rest of the founding members decide to pull off one final stunt on their friend's honeymoon; an elaborate cabin in the woods-esque nightmare with a spooky mask/slasher.

What follows is a spiral decent into terror when the prank goes too far. Who will survive this brutal slaying and who is this masked murderer guy? All in all, this is just another cheap indie horror film hoping to serve up some scares. Taking pages from The Evil Dead, Scream, and countless other successful horror franchises with some prank jokes thrown in for good measure, Jokesters is retread and ultimately nothing more than a redbox rental.

Presented in 1.85:1 anamorphic widescreen and a lossy Dolby Stereo 2.0 track.

There's actually a fair bit of extras including:

An Unedited Trailer
On-Set Pranks & Hijinks
Behind The Scenes
The Making of The Jokesters
