Why is this movie not higher up in ranks of best horror 2023??
11 February 2024
This movie may be one of the few I actually enjoyed as horror movies that came out of 2023. Personally I don't understand the hype around Talk To Me or Evil Dead Rise.... So i'm very surprised this one is not talked about more than its current reputation.

It has a good story, we see a sufficient amount of back story (thought it definitely could have been more, especially concerning Rosalia's story) and the pace is good. The movie keeps us hooked and i wasn't bored for a single moment throughout the film (which is a feat for sure).

I do love a good jumpscare and this movie lacked in that department by 100% (not a single jumpscare to be found). If they were to have a second movie (and i really hope they do), i hope that gets improved.

Russel Crowe is a great actor and this movie is no exception. Though there were some cliche's and generic tropes troughout the movie, the acting from everyone involved was convincing and kept the story alive.

As said before, I'd say this movie is, in my opinion, better than Speak To Me and Evil Dead Rise so I really hope they make a second movie because I believe this one has the potential to be a franchise like The Conjuring.
