Nice, a really solid flick. It’s normie horror done right; formulaic and familiar enough while also smartly avoiding some of the genre’s dumbest clichés. The characters are still stupid as hell, but because this is a story about addiction and peer pressure, the movie gets away with that. It’s truly an exciting start for the careers of the actors and directors. In fact, I see so much potential here that I don’t think either will look back on this project as their best work. Nevertheless, the editing, sound choices and cinematography are already good enough where the movie got a visceral reaction out of me on multiple occasions, which means it did its job.
