R.S.V.P. is a 2002 American dark comedy suspense film written and directed by Mark Anthony Galluzzo. The film features Glenn Quinn of Roseanne and Angel fame in his final role.
During a post-graduation party of a college student obsessed with serial killers, the guests are murdered one by one.
The film was marketed as a dark comedy. The Austin Chronicle described it as a suspense film.
Funding came from investors whose deal fell through on Mark Anthony Galluzzo's previous film. Galluzzo, who wrote, produced, and directed the film, said he performed many roles during production both out of necessity and because of his background working various jobs on other projects.[1]
Rotten Tomatoes, a review aggregator, reports that 20% of five surveyed critics gave the film a positive review; the average rating is 4.2/10.[2] Scott Foundas of Variety called it a "loud, crass redo of Hitchcock's Rope" with unlikable characters.[3] Kimberley Jones wrote in The Austin Chronicle that R.S.V.P.s "inability to stick to a tone makes for a wildly uneven film, but also a mostly entertaining one, too".[4]
R.S.V.P. won best film at the Malibu Film Festival.[5]
