Blind Alley was not what I expected, a claustrophobic slasher flick set within a lonely laundromat which goes in directions you will not see coming.
This Spanish made horror is made well, fantastic cinematography, thrilling from start to finish and extremely atmospheric.
With a brilliant cast across the board (Though minimal cast required) I found myself rooting for our heroine despite her being a very generic victim type.
What really sets it apart from the rest is the big twist at the end which alike the likes of Orphan (2009) I can confidently say I didn't see coming at all.
The films biggest flaw is its runtime, standing at only around 75 minutes long this damaged the film and due to its content felt more like a Tales From The Crypt episode than an actual movie.
Don't get me wrong I really enjoyed Blind Alley but it would have benefited overwhelmingly from an additional 30 minutes.
The Good:
Fantastic twist
Very well filmed
Great tension
Solid cast
The Bad:
Far too short
Pointless side plot
