It tries to be a character-driven folk-horror. And fails at being either character-driven or folk-horror.
The plot is not slow-burn, just slow. But despite its pacing, the characters and plot still feel half-baked.
The twist, if you can call it that, seems like just another thing that happens in the movie.
I'm surprised this movie has as high of a rating it does on imdb.
I thought about this. They probably wanted to keep the cop hostage and needed the ambulance to keep him alive.
Still pretty mediocre movie.
He was deliberately hamming it as a pompous narcissist who is out of touch with reality. I loved this interpretation of the character.
She was 10. Logic wasn't her forte.
OP there's nothing historical about this movie considering Brokeback Mountain did a much better job 17 years ago.
Sam Elliot here sounds exactly like sexually-frustrated Benedict Cumberbatch from the movie lmao.
Close. It was his cousin Fatt Damon.
Leaving her alive is understandable. Most adults, let alone kids, would balk at killing another human. Even one that was trying to kill them.
But yes, the number of weapons the kid threw away or didn't pick up was annoying. Knife, taser, axe... It reminded me of The Cabin By The Woods where in one scene, the movie specifically addressed that trope lol.
i dont remember the movie well but grandfather paradox aside, there were inconsistencies with the internal logic as well. When the strawberry farmer is killed, a new timeline is created. Not a timeline that is yet to be determined based on actions from 1999 onwards, but a fully formed timeline of pre-determined events. We know this because there are records in the police station of the serial killer being arrested, even though that is yet to happen to the girl in 1999.
But after that, the movie treats timelines as changing in real time. The dad dies in 2019 only when the girl stabs him in 1999. Similarly with the torture of the 1999 version of the heroine, and the entire brawl in the final act. Also, how is it that the heroine finds herself in the same house in every timeline, even the one where both her parents are killed.
Maybe there's an explanation, i can't remember a lot of the details
I didn't bother to really think about the credit scene, it just seemed like one of those Friday the 13th type twists that don't really make sense. I had way too many other issues with the movie.
Horror movies are completely ruined in theatres. If it's not people laughing because they're not into it, it's people too into it deliberately laughing to dispel the nervousness and tension. I feel theatres are best reserved for MCU type movies.
The best way to watch a horror movie is alone at your home.
