Awful marketing, Great movie
The movie title, cover, and trailer are all awful and do the movie no favors. I had absolutely no interest in watching this. It looks basic, very familiar, and uninteresting. Almost everyone i know who has seen it, only ended up watching it because someone else recommended it to them and said it was 'surprisingly good'. This is the same reason i ended up watching it. And I'm glad i did.
The title should be the same as it's short "Laura Hasn't Slept". "Smile" is a painfully boring name. The cover should be the creature climbing inside someones mouth. Again, bad marketing team.
The films main idea isnt original, but the story it builds around that idea is very interesting and effective. The scenes, cinematography, creatures, acting, and scares are all really well done. Way more than you'd expect. And minimal cheap jump scares is always something respectable from a horror movie. The scares this movie offers aren't loud shock scares, but deep, menacing chills. This movie is pleasantly surprising. 7.5/10.
