The slasher has a prerequisite that the characters will make dumb choices and the bad guys will generally lack intelligible motives. (There are some exceptions)
Haunt ticked these prerequisites of the list shamelessly and the movie worked a treat.
The characters were all well portrayed well and were plunged into a nightmare that they could not have foreseen coming. The sets were great and provided some great horror scenes that never felt over the top. The tension was palatable throughout and little happened exactly the way it was foreshadowed.
Haunt is gritty and brutal. A seriously good slasher. Better than most in recent years.
8/10.
