About One Must Fall
Set in a neon tinted 1980s, One Must Fall follows a woman who is fired from her office job and ends up taking a temp gig with a crime scene clean-up crew. What starts as a routine assignment quickly spirals as rumors of a ruthless serial killer spread through the squad. The team juggles slapstick chaos with grisly realities, turning every cleanup into a test of nerves and wit. As the body count rises and the killer keeps showing up where they least expect him, the line between professional duty and personal danger blurs, and the crew discovers their odds may hinge on unlikely teamwork and stubborn courage. The humor lands in awkward talks and quirky horror moments throughout too.
Directed by Antonio Pantoja, One Must Fall blends horror and comedy with a retro 80s vibe. Lead performances include Vincent Lee Alston as The Bald Man and Daniel Felix de Weldon, with turns that stay lively and offbeat for sure.
Box office data for One Must Fall isn't publicly listed, making it hard to gauge its commercial reach. It's clearly a niche title aimed at genre fans rather than mass market release. That limited release suggests uncertain box office signals.
There are no widely reported nominations or wins for One Must Fall. The film has a small festival footprint and an audience score on platforms, reflecting a polarizing but engaged niche following. It has earned a place among cultish indie horror comedies that celebrate B movie energy rather than awards.
Reception sits between amusement and skepticism, with a 4.1 out of 10 from 18 votes on the platform signaling mixed reactions. The film satirizes office life and power dynamics, while offering practical gore, quirky setups, and a nostalgic soundtrack that nods to 80s horror staples for fans of grindhouse flair.
