Review of Herd

Herd (III) (2023)
9/10
It secretly is a 9 star movie wrapped in a 5 star movie.

I wanted to write something about this movie. Not this piece. But about how it seems like a bad movie with badly written flat characters. I mean a caricature of a redneck would be more fleshed out than this ladies man we get to meet. And then it hit me. It is intentional. This director made a movie within a movie. Like the main characters stumbled across a diner theater group with live ammo acting out a zombie story.

And my initial 5 star review (while watching this movie) became a 9 star. Ingenious movie with a most gut-wrenching twist I have seen in a very, very long time.

And I surely will get responses like "What is he on about?" but this is one of those cult classics in the making. And if anything it sure isn't boring.
