phancy.com rating:
phancy.com notes: A very meta mashup spoof of horror and romcom, that simultaneously laughs at the genres and takes them seriously. As much as they make fun of romcoms, I wound up rooting for the couple at the end of the movie. And the evil, flying log has more personality than some other slasher villains. Bonkers in all the right ways. Watch with a friend!

Adult Swim Yule Log 2' Is the Glorious Horror Hallmark Mash-Up You Never Knew You Needed
Adult Swim Yule Log 2: Branchin' Out is a genuine delight that's weird and wonderful. It's certainly one of 2024's weirdest horror movies, but it's an impressive accomplishment and stylistic masterpiece. The film leans into comedy more than its predecessor and there are lengthy stretches where it's easy to forget that you're watching a horror movie, not a Hallmark movie. It remains a perpetually fascinating experience. Hopefully Casper Kelly will be able to bring his groundbreaking and genre-bending sensibilities to more feature films going forward.
