PROPAGANDA - Duel
They deconstructed the various horror/slasher tropes while having the gods be surrogates for the viewing audience. Sounds pretty clever.
Can't stop the signal.
If by "decontstructed" you mean took every stupid horror cliche from the beginning of time and stapled them together in a hackneyed, predictable way toward an absolutely ludicrous finale, then yes I agree . .
There's a reason this mess sat on a shelf for three years . . it's an abominable film, but God Forbid anyone should criticize the great Joss Whedon . .

Not at all. It took conventional horror tropes and gave a reason for existing while at the same time placing the audience in the seat of the gods needing to be satiated with the "rituals" of horror movies.

They can criticize all they want. Just don't be under the delusion that their opinions are somehow shielded from being ridiculed.

Complain all you want about Joss, but your post still reeks of sour grapes.
In the kingdom of the blind, you're the village idiot.
