Every great horror script, even the comedic ones, is a mystery, and ultimately the mystery should lead us to the identity and motivation of the killer. Unfortunately for Rex & the Doggie Style Killer, which has a very strong beginning, the identity of the killer is revealed so soon that the story flat lines due to a lack of mystery or suspense.

The script does have its strong elements: the setting and world of Panama City, FL at spring break is a great premise for a horror script and there's a strong sense of pace and forward momentum. It is also refreshing to see a comedy that's perfectly willing to fill the screen with exposed flesh and buckets of blood, in the name of cheap but legitimate laughs. Horror/dark comedy is always hard, but this one has moments that show a lot of potential in terms of nailing the tone.

However, while this script could be made cheaply, and the horror audience will always be there, without a more defined killer or central protagonist, this script as written ends feels a bit too much like another pointless slash and burn comedic horror film.
