The Void (I) (2016)
7/10
A Not Bad Pretty Good Give it a Watch Practical Effects Horror Flick!
8 April 2017
I love horror films when they're done right. No shortcuts, no coincidental saves, no stupid character choices, and most importantly the writer/director LOVES the media back.

The Void LOVES the genre very much and the homages/influences throughout are handled with love. It takes no time for the action to start and the mystery takes its time unfolding.

Trades the jump scares in for a more visceral and cerebral approach, hearkening to a more Lovecraft meets John Carpenter than more modern approach.

It's not perfect, but there is a lot to love here and it firmly puts the directors on the must-watch list.
