Decent Horror
A slow burner but enjoyable creature, myth Horror. In a remote rundown town in Oregon a strange creature appears to be attacking local residents. It's very nicely shot and the locations add to the feel of the film. Quite a grim, run down, poor town that has long seen better days. Combined with large areas of remote woodland and mountains adding to the isolated feel. The main story takes the form of an old folk tale about a spirit taking the form of an animal and needing to feed.
The creature effects are good along with the gory makeup effects are both good. If you after a slow burner, errie horror that's a bit different to the norm check this out.

What an explosive end to a great trilogy!

The Voice That Twists the Knife wraps up the trilogy nicely, and starts with Bella and Ariana swapping places: Bella goes back to Ralph and the team, and Ariana goes to London with her father. Ariana is mad with her mother for keeping secrets, and this is her punishment. Quite who she’s punishing is questionable!

There are human/ animal hybrids, mind readers, kinetic powers and more. Lychen is more powerful and controlling than ever, playing God along with his research team.

There’s only one way this can go, and it’s an exciting journey. I’ve really enjoyed this trilogy. Many thanks to The Pigeonhole and to JM Briscoe for reading along.
