What are people saying about Initiation?

Speaking about Initiation with The Geekiary, director and writer John Berardo says: “Slasher films are inherently misogynistic; a giant man with a phallic sharp thing chasing a half-naked girl who’s too stupid to be going out the front door when she’s going up the stairs, it’s insulting.

“I’m quoting Scream, but [Initiation was about] how we could take those stereotypes and spin them and turn them on their head and make like… I don’t want to say a feminist slasher film, but a movie that challenges those stereotypes?”
