To pull off a comedy about a serial killer requires out-of-the-box thinking and talent.
Unfortunately, neither seem to be present in this awkward fiasco.
Some may call it dialogue-driven...but, literally, no-one shuts-the-f**k-up, it's a constant gushing stream of dried-up drivel.
And...to make matters worse...they do - eventually - dry-up...of ideas and, obviously, money. Pity it didn't come sooner rather than 80 minutes later. The film ends...somewhere far, far away from a real ending.
As for the YouTube inserts...they are unnecessary, extremely irritating fillers...seriously chaps...you are not funny.
To pull off a comedy about a serial killer requires...much more than this crew have to offer.

An intriguing mix of horror, camp and romantic comedy, You're Killing Me demonstrates what happens when narcissistic, wannabe Internet star George meets Joe, a monotone serial killer. George catches Joe's attention and they immediately begin dating. While all of George's friends agree that Joe seems a bit strange, George claims his new beau 'isn't scary, he's gorgeous.' As George's friends start to disappear, the remaining group take matters into their own hands. The surprising ending begs the question: Can the right kind of attention make you blind to a cute killer?
Directed and co-written by Jim Hansen (creator of The Chloe Videos with Drew Droege), this gay mixture of Dexter and Gilmore Girls blends witty banter, pop culture references and good old-fashioned gore. You're Killing Me will have you laughing hysterically as you cover your eyes in fear.
