Why ruin a good horror movie?
19 September 2021
With the birth of the digital movie netflix age we have more access to movies and more filmmakers get their work seen. The bad part? We have seen a decline in watchable movies. Jordan Peele has made a few good movies but this one fails. This is either a phoned in request to make money to make more films, or we are just approaching the age where no one.makes any good watchable movies anymore.

This is a turd. The original starring Virginia Madsen.had a haunting feel, a well created mythology, and a terrifying feeling about what would come next that made it a good enough horror film to spur a sequel and now a remake. The remake just doesn't cut it. It brings nothing of the uncomfortable foreboding of the original and I was roundly disappointed because I anticipated watching a decent horror movie with an accomplished filmmaker. What I got was disappointment. What is worse is that I really can't even tell whose fault it is.
