I watched this because I wanted to see what the guy who wrote "The Exorcist" could do directing a film, it was advertised as horror.

It was beautiful.

Passengers seemed to suggest there was some grand conspiracy as to why they had woken up and some giant twist at the end. It was pretty shit on all accounts.

But yeah, DWP was advertised as some radical "biting" satire, and it's really just a black college soap opera with the framing of a ludicrous dress as black people party spearheaded by a cartoonish Chad. The dialogue and interactions of the core cast are actually pretty good, but every time they actually try to talk about race relations, it devolves into eye-rollingly poor cliches.
