Review of Truth or Dare

I went into Truth or Dare aware that this was listed on many "Worst movies of 2018" lists, but now it's finished I'm unaware of quite why. Especially considering that 2018 was a dire year and therefore there was stiff competition.

It tells the story of a group of friends who find themselves trapped in a supernatural game of truth & dare which has lethal consequences. Fine, it sounds goofy but it's really not.

With an unknown roster I was able to see characters rather than actors and I always appreciate that. They do a great job and the premise is fantastic, one that I'd love to see taken further it's even franchise worthy.

You see it has limitless potential, there are so many possibilities. Did they utilize it well here? Yeah, but they did bring a long of "Teen" angst into it which I felt was one of its biggest flaws.

A clever little horror movie this was unexpectedly good. It's not scary, it's not gory, it's smart and I think that's something that horror has been lacking lately.

My advice is to ignore the unexplained hatred and give this one a go, I really enjoyed it.

The Good:

Incredible concept

Well executed

Interesting finale

The Bad:

Fire the sound guy

"Teen" angst
