‘AIR FRYER SLAUGHTER’ (2024) – Movie Review – PopHorror

Published

Air Fryers are one of the most appreciated and streamlined cooking inventions in modern history. Not since the George Foreman grill have we seen so many people swear by a new kitchen trend. But what if the Air Fryer became an instrument of destruction with bad intentions? That’s the question we answer in Air Fryer Slaughter, the newest cult horror comedy by MMH Productions.

Air Fryer Slaughter was written and directed by Matthew Mark Hunter (Nightmares Unleashed 2023), who bolsters a gargantuan 262 directing credits and 250 writing credits to his name. It stars Matt Skinner (Bathtub Shark Attack 2023, read our review here), Lloyd Kaufman (Toxic Avenger 1984) and Jessa Flux (Curse Of The Weredeer 2023). Skinner voices the titular antagonist, an Air Fryer with a sarcastic wit and a thirst for violence.

That’s about all we’ve got when it comes to plot, but there’s still plenty that will satisfy fans of Troma-style horror. Air Fryer Slaughter has an impressive array of violence on display, that results in a showcase for the SFX department. Eyes are poked out, faces melted, and body parts fly as our bulky antagonist moves impressively from place to place. Air Fryer is framed much like Freddy Krueger, with puns and quips to go with his trail of dead bodies.

But Air Fryer isn’t just a mechanical maniac, he’s also a viewer to a television reel that hosts a lot of cameos from indie horror standouts. Destruction must also be hard work, because Air Fryer goes on a few sexual quests as well, adding some nudity and laughs to our list of classic horror tropes.

Air Fryer Slaughter is shot on video and seems to leave the door open for sequels and spinoffs in a shared world of schlocky cult horror. Fans of this sub-genre will certainly find this as a worthy addition. It’s available now on DVD.
