Movie Rating

Excellent visual effects, keen sense of horror history, solid acting. (0 more)

Very little in the way of innovation or covering new ground. (0 more)

A fun way to spend 2 hours.

Overall it’s a solid horror film. Not a game changer in the artistic sense, but it’s high box office grosses will open the door for more big-budget R-rated horror, so for that alone it get so a six. Extra point for never losing my attention. I had a good time overall. Not blown away, but not disappointed. Exactly what I expected.

Artistic Slasher

A very stylish Slasher film that is very different to the norm. I'm not sure if this was a remake of the old Slasher film or not? What makes this stand out is a great performance from Elijah Wood. It's also quite shocking rather than a tongue in cheek horror as most Slasher films fall into. Also the fact the view point of the majority of the film is through the eyes of the killer. Something better and varied to most horror films.

African supernatural love thriller

This is the first film I have seen from Senegal. It follows a girl who is in love but forced to marry into money, but love diesnt let go not even in death.

It is a slow burning artistic film and the paranormal aspect is almost a side project rather than the focus of the films which makes it even more interesting. This is a strange wonderful film and deserved of its cannes award
