REVIEW: 

These days playing on Netflix is the chilling outside experience, The Ritual. Directed by David Bruckner written by Joe Barton, the film bases on four school companion's stumble into the forested areas following the passing of one of their classmates. Try not to be tricked by the entire outdoors in the forested areas situation. The Ritual does not endless supply of the typical repulsiveness tropes that kind groups of onlookers have seen on numerous occasions. 

Alongside their outdoors equip, this team of folks brings along a considerable measure of psychological weight on their trip also. The Ritual is a balance of suspenseful thrill ride and beast film. The characters are multi-layered and extremely all around acted. The apprehension inside themselves, and in addition among the companions, turns the pressure level on the whole film up an indent. Rafe Spall emerges with his splendid depiction of Luke, who was observer to his companion's murder. Spall shows an extensive variety of feelings successfully from despondency, torment, blame, dread and outrage. His execution gives genuine human profundity to Luke. This improves the part of The Ritual that works extremely well, the association of the gathering of people to the characters. With characters that are relatable, the watcher really thinks about this gathering of young fellows and feel their dread. At last, the mankind that is deficient in numerous blood and guts movies, The Ritual can accomplish. At the point when all hellfire descends upon this team, we really mind. 

Based off of Norwegian folklore, The Ritual gives a frightful dull tone, with the woods itself having a major impact in film. This film is charming, many-sided and all around created by Bruckner. All things considered, it additionally gives the dread factor and gut for the bad-to-the-bone repulsiveness fan. In case you're searching for a fascinating blood and gore movie with a profound story, help yourself out and look at The Ritual.

Midsommar

2019

This atypical Horror takes place in a bucolic and sunny setting, which systematically overturns all the canons of the genre, while we seem to simply watch a dramatic story we enter a world outside the world... Where folklore turns into grotesque and unexpected splatter scenes hit you like punches in the stomach, all seasoned with a ferocious humor. There are those who will come out disgusted, without a doubt, from the vision (it happened to me) and those who instead exalted. The dream scenes are objectively very beautiful and disturbing. Ultimately, a high-quality film... Read More

Goodnight Mommy

2022

A psychological thriller with horror nuances, a remake of a 2014 Austrian film described as disturbing and highly praised by critics. Hidden behind a mask, we find the always good Naomi Watts, here also a producer, in the role of a mother who whispers a horror lullaby in the ears of her children... to tell us that very, too often the monster lives within the walls of the home and in the people closest to us. Compared to the original film, there is much less ferocity and cruelty, but it is still a good film of tension and mystery. The dream sequences are particularly... Read More

The Invisible Man

2020

The latest adaptation, a great success, of the famous novel of the same name written in 1897 by H. G. Wells. Adapted to our days to talk about stalking... And to immerse us in the furious and anguished fight of a woman, played to perfection by Elisabeth Moss, against her tormentor. It is likely that the female audience may feel disturbed by the vision, as it happened to me, and want to change the channel, but don't do it! The film is worth it in every sense, suggestive photography and excellent direction (Whannell is best known for having created the thriller-horror saga... Read More

Dream scenario

2023

Produced by Ari Aster. We find a great Nicolas Cage thrown into a story so absurd that it is hard to believe it is based on a true story. The film moves brilliantly between the horror, surreal comedy and drama genres in a disturbing atmosphere bordering on the grotesque, both the comical situations and the disturbing and mysterious ones are very successful. All emphasized by an evocative soundtrack. Absolutely worth seeing.

Velvet Buzzsaw

2019

Netflix product halfway between comedy and splatter... Horror satire on the world of contemporary art, I would say a "unique piece" in the panorama of the subgenre, set between the walls of luxurious American galleries. The atmosphere goes from a gloomy purple to a sunny heat, it feels like being on a carousel that goes up and down between laughter and fear. Jake Gyllenhaal always excellent, he perfectly embodies the role of a cynical and mellifluous art critic like never before. Certainly one of the best films on the Netflix platform and it's a real shame not to have... Read More
