I'm not finding much to indicate a passing of NFILM, let alone GNG. Other than the review in the article, the only thing I've been able to find is this review. Everything else is either a blog, forum, or a simple listing indicating that the film exists. Is it TOOSOON for this film? Primefac (talk) 15:47, 11 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. I had to wade through rivers of junk hits for the film - and there were many - but I found just enough for the film to pass notability guidelines via a review from AICN and a local source. It's an insanely low amount of sourcing and not as great as reviews in the Hollywood Reporter and Bloody Disgusting, but it'll make it just barely squeak by NFILM. I also found this but I can't remember if Horror Society is considered a RS on here or not. I don't usually use it, but that doesn't always mean it's not usable.

There might be more out there, but if there is it's pretty deeply buried. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡) 08:40, 12 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. I guess Tokyogirl79 got to it before I could. But I expanded it a bit further. I'd generally consider Horror Society OK for reviews but not for anything else, like news. Their fact-checking seems to amount to loading up the IMDb. But, yeah, I'd say this film passes WP:NFILM. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 09:20, 12 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Cool - I remember that we'd talked about it before, but I couldn't recall if you'd thought it reliable or not. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡) 10:50, 12 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
