I haven't read anything by Jo Spain before but after reading Don't Look Back, I will certainly be keeping my eyes open in the future as I enjoyed this.

Don't Look Back is a twisty thriller with great characters, not all of whom are likeable, and an intriguing plot with some great twists. Be warned, it deals with domestic violence so if this is a trigger, I would steer clear.

Travelling from London to the Caribbean and to Ireland, this is one twisty book that is told at a good pace, from multiple points of view and with some flashbacks. The plot is complicated but it all comes to a satisfying conclusion in the end.

All in all, an enjoyable thriller that kept me reading into the night and I must thank Quercus Books and NetGalley for enabling me to read and share my thoughts of Don't Look Back.

Between Se7en and Fight Club, David Fincher directed this forgotten thriller with Michael Douglas and Sean Penn. I love how the game starts very subdued and gradually builds in intensity throughout the film. The ending is really good the first time you see it; however, if you start to think about it too much, you start to question if it was really plausible.

Still highly recommended.

Loved the plot and overall idea of the movie (1 more)
Creepy without being tacky
Return to the psychological horror
Loved this movie, a return to the psychological horror rather than the cheap gruesome horror so often portrayed in recent horror-thriller movies. Fantastic cast and premise with enough humor to alleviate some of the stress. Personally the ending wasn't too bad but could have been explored a bit more in the film.

Good use of building tension.

A bit far fetched in places. (0 more)
A Fresh Thrill
An exciting horror movie that actually feels fresh. The tension is built well by the director and the score compliments the whole thing well. It's not the best script in Hollywood and is a bit ridiculous in places, but it's a fun thriller that will keep you engaged for its runtime.
