Review: The Clearing (2020)

Image
My rating: 1 I watched this film so you would not have to.  I had some higher expectations than I usually do, that was mostly brcause it's been a while since the last decent zombie movie came out. So let me present my disappointment.

Review: The Dinner Party (2020)

Image
My rating: 3 I have mixed feelings about this one. The plot and story developing is just a bit unbalanced.

Review: The Silence (2019)

Image
My rating: 4 So this is A Quiet Place all over again, a deaf girl being portrayed as having some sort of advantage when terrible creatures attack the Earth. Except, this idea does not work very well in this film

Review: Gretel & Hansel (2020)

Image
My rating: 3 Visually striking, but pushing hard on the feminist note. The strongest aspect of this film is the good visuals it presents. The cabin and its surroundings really just feel somewhat magical. Also the costumes are very well done.

Review: In the Tall Grass (2019)

Image
My rating: 4/10 Good concept badly executed. The story unfolds very slowly, the first half of the film is very much just people getting lost in the tall grass, but no tension, not much that would keep me personally paying attention. The second half of the film is somewhat better as there is more things happening, but still there was no tension, no pressure built, and not really that many horror elements.
