Dare I say the “most important horror film of this decade” already?
Maybe I'm numb to horror films, but I feel like this was the least scary of Wan's films. If I had a heart monitor on during my first viewing, I bet my pulse was pretty steady from start to finish.
The"vision" sequences for Madison were very cool and really added a dynamic style to what I expected to just be a ghost flick. That, Gabriel's movements, the birds-eye camera shots ...it was all a lovely balance of pretty and gruesome film-work for this chaotic movie.I liked the sibling storyline, and it was a nice change of pace from the stereotypical parents and their children dealing with the supernatural.
I also hate when off-the-wall movies don't commit, and instead, lean on campiness as a failsafe in case people make fun of the ridiculousness of the movie...like playing it off like a joke. Commit to your ridiculousness and hit the ground running. I want madness in horror, and just because classic horrors are campy, doesn't mean you can't evolve and give us something new.
