The Passenger (2021)
5/10
Share Another Ride
12 October 2024
Not to be confused with the other horror-passenger from 2023. These two exact-titled movies couldn't be further apart. And spoiler, I enjoyed this one MUCH more.

Continuing into Ahhctober 2024, I chose another South American/Spanish-speaking horror movie (much like last year's When Evil Lurks.) Only, this one was NOWHERE near as good. Thank God for that ending tho!

This movie involves around a weird ride-share adventure with several unique passengers. Only, they happen to travel through an alien invasion turning everyone into...sorta zombies.

The lead-up to the finale wasn't bad. It was just standard with so many characters doing the exact opposite as they should to really survive a horror movie.

I just happened to love the third act. It's kinda foretold, but not really. To me, it was the perfect ending and two words to the filmmakers:

NO SEQUEL. End here. Okay, that's four words.

***

Final Thoughts: I would've certainly downgraded this movie so much more for those outlandish and stupid mistakes the characters make...repeatedly. It just redeemed itself with such a great ending.
