Dacre Montgomery is the sole reason I give this anything above a zero. Toned down, slow, and unrealistic. This attempt to reboot a long-dead series fails to spark anything other than boredom.

Good, unique premise and delivery, the horror genre really has the legs to support anything.

If Hollywood keeps making movies like this they will go bankrupt. Not watching. Not explaining. Not apologizing.

A script/plot in need of a rewrite, a bit generic with some eye-rolling character decisions at times. However, I was absolutely riveted for most of the movie, with heart-pounding tension and fantastic performances from Dacre Montgomery and Barbie Ferrera. While the movie maybe could be slightly more "scary" or gory, it still felt very intense with a slight edge of dark comedy that prevented the movie from feeling pretentious. If you love the original Faces of Death, or cat-and-mouse serial killer thrillers, it's well worth a watch imo. Maybe not as emotionally resonate as HTBUAP, but Daniel Goldhaber proves once again he has the directing juice! I can't believe that this almost was never released, shame on you Legendary for taking this long to sell it off or release it.

Because if there's anything that's comparable to an infamous shockumentary that tricked so many people into thinking its kills were real, it's a really stupid horror movie that isn't even shocking enough to get into unrated territory. Cool killer though.
