Featured review
Whenever any horror or thriller or mystery movie comes out, I urge to see the movie as soon as possible as these are my utmost favorite genres out there!
These genres create much hype for me, so do my expectations from them! Few times I got what I wanted, sometimes unfortunately not!
This time it's the latter part!
The film starts with a good premise and setting with creepy background score, Even the characters were interesting enough but soon after sometimes! The film kinda fall down! With unnecessary scenes, not enough and well explained background stories of the characters and a kinda dull climax in the end!
In BRIEF :
* Performances were not so bad nor so good, Just OK enough!
* Soundtrack, Ahhh yeah it was good, fits well with the theme.
* Plot could have made a big impact but failed to do so!
* Slowed down and became boring in bits and pieces in between!
* Ending is not convincing enough and seems incomplete or lacks the impact I would preferably say!
If you are searching for a Short, One time watch horror film go for it but if you are someone who loves tension building, and interesting one!
Skip it!
