Read my full review on Arrow in the Head.
Additional Notes: Setting aside that utter nonsense about Abigail Breslin, I really did like Fear, Inc. I always expect the worst when a review rolls far enough down the hill to reach me, but I was pleasantly surprised. I’m worried the film will get buried under an avalanche of licensing issues due to its frequent, exact visual quotes from other movies (Joe is wearing a Freddy Krueger sweater literally the entire time), but if it gets out into the world, I don’t think I’d mind seeing it again. This is clearly not a strong recommendation, but I had fun with this one.
TL;DR: Fear, Inc. is an addled low budget horror-comedy, but it's still a basket of Halloween fun.
