Barbarian

This was a real movie of two halves for me. I think the first half of the movie was really great; incredibly tense and packed with moments where you, the audience, are completely unsure of where the Bad Thing is going to come from. Is Bill Skarsgård's Keith a secret psychopath? Is there someone else in the house? Is there a ghost or a demon here? Weird seeing Georgina Campbell in the lead role; not least because I thought Justin Long was the star of this, at least according to the marketing. But also because I know her primarily from Doctor Who and didn't realize she was popping up in read more

a very powerful fist half, that rapidly looses freshness and charm on the second half. read more

The scariest part of the movie is when Justin Long tossed that MacBook across the room. No but, really, I didn't think I'd feel bad for that thing by the end. It's nice to see something that at least has some originality, even if it didn't entirely work for me. read more

Think I'd need another viewing to drill down on how I really feel about this, but if you showed me this and X and told me one was a horror debut and one was the latest from an experienced director, I think I'd answer incorrectly, so that counts for something I guess. read more

With its catchy title and the whole mystique surrounding the movie in general, it is a shame that in the final analysis the movie which starts off about a young girl who finds that her Airbnb has been double-booked isn't able to reach the heights that are promised. That is not to say its a poor movie, it isn't, and for most of its runtime director Zach Cregger is able to entertain as the storyline twists and turns across the arcs of its three main characters. Excellent lead actress Georgina Campbell plays the unfortunate Tess, clearly an intelligent woman yet also one able to make such poor... read more

I'd rather Zach made a movie about that apartment with the lady that drew sad portraits on walls with the blood from her heroine syringes. That's a scarier story. This movie was kinda scary for the first novella, but then the second one was kinda funny actually. And it ended with some trashy grindhouse shit. The scariest thing was that spider that descended from my ceiling right in front of my face as I was watching the movie. read more

sooooooo good. continually surprised me in the best way possible. i have the unfortunate habit of spoiling myself for nearly everything, intentionally or not, and im very glad i went into this blind minus one trailer. georgina campbell was a great lead, loved justin longs performance, and richard brake is chilling with barely any dialogue. really shows why he was originally the night king. the mother also scared the absolute fuck out of me when she first appeared, i didnt expect it at all, and she reminded me of the medeiros girl from rec, who also scares the shit out of me. really enjoyed... read more
