Quite the tense slow-burn horror
14 June 2017
A24 continues to impress me each time with their films. As soon as one is even announced, whether I know its true intention or not, I want to see and (try to) understand it. I want to know the film's purpose. 'It Comes at Night' puts on a high tensity slow-burning horror show that keeps you on the edge of your seat with every spoken word and/or action that is taken. It is a film that shows human nature's most basic instinct; survival. However, here is yet another disclaimer; this is a slow-burn horror film. It is not 'The Conjuring', it is not a carbon copy of every Hollywood Horror film that spoon feeds jump scares like every PG-13 horror film does. It is a psychological slow-burn horror film. A24 delivers yet another Indie horror film that is a gem within the horror genre.
