A typical slasher film made in a different way
We're used to the typical slasher-film dynamic - a tragedy that happened many years ago and a group of friends who wanna have some fun while there's a killer stalking them around the woods and waiting to ruin they're weekend, vacation, whatever. Well, actually In a Violent Nature have all this cliche elements, but they're developed in a different way. Basically this movie has no dialogues, only a few moments and 90% of the movie is focused on the killer and seen through his perspective, not from the victims like most horror films, and I think this is an original and bold idea, because no other slasher film did that as much as In a Violent Nature. In the other hand, it makes the movie very tedious and tiring, because it makes you feel like watching a recorded game or something. I think if some scenes were shorter maybe it wouldn't be so tedious to watch. But regardless, if you're a slasher\horror film lover, I think you must watch this movie, but just not expect a good plot and dialogues that catch your attention when you went to watch, because there's none. This was a bold movie for going in a not-typical direction and the death scenes were great for it's brutality and gore - by the way the mountain scene has one of the coolest and most brutal deaths seen in a slasher film before. Another positive point about the movie for me was the photography of it, the colors and the way they were highlighted in every scene were great.
