THEY WILL KILL YOU
Sigh.
i went in partially blind to see this piece of shit film.
I follow a reaction YouTuber called FlixTalk and he did an out of theater showing review of this film. He said that is was a hard core gore fest in the vein of Evil Dead 2 & Kill Bill. Some horror, some over the top gore, some humour and quite a bit of action. I was intrigued.
Yes, there is truth in that but for a film with the following plot synopsis: The story follows a woman who takes a live-in job at a mysterious New York building called the Virgil, only to realize its elite residents have a long history of disappearances and are, in fact, part of a Satanic cult.
Despite what that says..there is absolutely no horror, no tension, no sense of dread, not even any cheap jump scare moments. Just essentially 90 min of over the top action, acting and violence. Total 100 % cheese from the likes of Patricia Arquette, Heather Graham & Tom Felton who most likely did this for the pay check.
OMG was this film a snoozefest !!! I was so freaking bored, I need plot. I need characters to care enough about to want to see survive or be killed, this dreck has none of that.
I must be getting old, maybe my teenage self or 20-something self would’ve loved this but 55 me thought it royally sucked.
I give it a half of a 🗡 out of 5 (It was visually cool but lacked everything else)
