Merely okay. I felt it would have worked better in a 25 minute slot in an Amicus anthology film as repetition kicks in as we seem to be treading over the same ground throughout - keep quiet and still and hope the blind man doesn't shoot you. It's all fairly derivative and cliche in the way early plot points are laid on thick just so you don't forget them forty minutes later - Ladybirds, anyone?
As for the three burglars? I wanted them dead. Robbing folk, smashing their things, pissing on the floor of their victims. Deserved everything they got and more!
The film poster suggests that this is the best American horror film in twenty years. If it is then God help us! |
I actually really liked it, is it the best horror in 20 years , will it be a classic? No but it's better than most of the crap that passes for horror nowadays and for me was for better than it follows and the Babadook which many seem to love.
