ComicBook.com reviews two Fantastic Fest movies, When Evil Lurks and The Altman Method
The 2023 edition of Fantastic Fest is happening right now and ComicBook.com is covering this celebration of niche and genre cinema from around the world. Our first two reviews from the event are here in the form of horror-thrillers, with the Argentinian possession movie When Evil Lurks and the Israeli domestic thriller The Altman Method. Here are two quick reviews from this year's Fantastic Fest.
When Evil Lurks deploys its often-disgusting gore effects with the correct timing and with aplomb. Even when the audience knows exactly what's going to happen in a scene, Demián Rugna is able to wring every ounce of tension out of a moment that he can making you wait for it. Then, when he gives himself the chance to show these gnarly moments, they never disappoint.
The Altman Method reviewYoung Israeli couple Uri and Noa Altman find themselves spinning their wheels professionally. Noa is an actress who hasn't worked in some time while Uri's karate business is failing and they're going to need to close up the space that he had previously occupied.
