Good evening readers, I have another movie that you can sink your teeth into. I’m so excited that there are more and more thriller/ horror movies available throughout the year. Now, this one is different than all the ones I’ve watched this year, because it is originally a video game, let’s brew about it!
Now, the movie is similar to the game play, where it starts with a group of friends going to cabin in the woods because one of their friends is missing and her last known location is at a particular cabin. The video game is similar in that they’e actually missing two friends, now the outcome or ending changes varying on what you have the character do, which is the same in the movie, but focuses on one character with different outcomes depending on the supportive character(s).
The supernatural starts within the 10 minutes of the movie with a bit of cheese. But the story is well written with some comedy mashed in-between, always my favorite. There are twists and turns with hints at what is largely going on. Why are there windows when they are apparently at the ground floor? Why can’t they remember what happened when they previously died?(spoiler alert)If they die before dawn everything resets for THIRTEEN days, if they don’t make it before themed of 13 days they are trapped.
I really enjoyed the movie, it had me jumping a little and laughing along. The story unfolded smoothly without it being abrupt or not making any sense. So, I say it’s a good watch if you are looking for something different. I’m definitely considering buying the game to try it out. What are your thoughts? Have you played the game or watched the movie? What is your take?
As Always Keep on Brewin!
