HEY EVERYBODY ITS ME, (4) and today we review ....ONE OF THE BEST MOVIES IVE EVER SEEN !!!!!!!!!!
What ?!?!?!?!?
Where did this gem of a film come from ?!?!!?? 2017 ? How did i miss this for so long ? .... its amazing - FACTS ... the acting is great, in indie films FAR to often the acting is terrible and off putting when a film is trying to be serious ....however from the beginning you learn the workings of this family ...or non workings i should say ...but the acting there of is actually good and helps you to truly feel like its a family like any other during the holiday chaos ...it has a good dose of realism to it thats for sure
the lighting is solid ..... the editing is solid ...the FX are solid .... the characters are each fantastic and the perfect example of what "bigger" film directors etc like "rob zombie" should be doing .....instead of having everyone the exact same lol.... i mean obviously this crew of baddies are trashy and something you could easily imagine being in a rob zombie film ...HOWEVER in this film you can recognize every characters different ..they talk different act different .....even "turk" the "dogboy" like brother figure in this disgruntled family you can feel a backstory in him the way he begins to behave throughout the film ..... its honestly amazing story telling without even using words .....
the runners problems , the dads dark secrets , the brothers perversions that are expectations for us as an audience .....the mom ... the regular family is fantastic as well ....
its a basic home invasion film that seriously pushes the concept and keeps going , the pacing never lets up unike other home invasion films (the strangers, your next etc)) that try to hard to build tension and then bring it to a head and surprise you with some big twist ....this one just punches your senses and keeps attacking ....just like in the movie ....
so wow i was very pleasantly surprised here , i was hoping for a terrible film to make fun of and instead i got a film that i honestly loved, and wanted to finish watching and pay attention to the entire time ......
10/10 - yes for real.
