Un film d'horreur classique

I didn't have great expectations, but I ended up enjoying it. A bit of meta-cinema that might seem forced at times, but overall good and entertaining; better than 95% of horrors on Netflix.

It's a good one. Photography and screenplay are well made, characters are believable in their choices, actors in their performances. Personally, I loved the well-aged Italian soundtrack. The movie is somehow thought provoking, with a twist in the end that I did not see coming until when the protagonist realises it too, and that's something per se.

Starting from the title itself, the movie goes around playing with genre's archetypes, landing a few scares, also managing to convey an overall sense of uneasiness.

The ending scene: it felt like a critique on our contemporary hysteria on having less and less time, our attention span is reducing, and even watching a movie becomes a chore. The viewer ends up skipping the movie entirely, fast forwarding it, picking few random scenes, ending up taking the same side of those who watched it distractedly, hated it, but spoke about it in capital letters in a comment on a social media.

It really questions the Netflix paradigm of producing movies based on "the like algorithm".

I like when an horror movie does what it's supposed to do: provoke you.

Blair Witch meets The Village meets Midsommar. There you go.

Not what I thought, but I liked it. It had all the main elements of horror. By the way, don't forget to watch the post credit scene. It adds a bit more to the story. Again, post credit scene.

The name says everything. I found it to be a clever homage to horror, with elements/inspiration from The Evil Dead, The Hills Have Eyes, Midsommar, The Cabin in the Woods. It's like comfort food. More like this please!
