This Underrated Horror Comedy Perfected the Art of the Board Game Movie
Considering how popular board games are, it’s somewhat surprising that Hollywood doesn’t have more than a handful of movies based on them. A few classic board games got a cinematic adaptation to different degrees of success, such as Clue, Battleship, and Werewolf Within. There are also brilliant films that subvert the idea of a party game to deliver something completely unexpected, such as Ready or Not, Game Night, and Bodies Bodies Bodies.
With a synopsis as delicious as this, it’s hard to imagine why Gatlopp: Hell of a Game has remained under people’s radar. The mystery only increases when we look at the cast and crew involved with the project. Gatlopp is written by Jim Mahoney, one of the writers behind Netflix’s highly-imaginative Christmas animated movie Klaus. While Gatlopp and Klaus have distinct audiences, both showcase Mahoney’s ability as a comedy writer.
In the movie, the four friends play a game of Gatlopp to have some quick fun and leave as fast as they can to tend to their own business. Soon, even before the board game reveals its nasty intentions, everyone is laughing at the absurd questions and wacky challenges proposed at each card someone picks from the pile. It also helps that Gatlopp is a drinking game, which allows players to lose up and get hooked by the game.
