Review of Bad Samaritan (2018) by Danielle M — 11 May 2018
Oh, I got to see this as a screening with a Q&A with Dean Devlin and Robert Sheehan. It was FUCKING AMAZING.
Few horror or thriller movies can make you jump, scream, laugh, and go WTF one right after the other. This one did.
Cale, David Tennant, is not only a bad guy who is into power via semi overly perverted fetish ways of pony play, which in no way does he use in sexual ways (was talked about in the Q&A with Dean Devlin and Robert Sheehan), but he can also be a charmer.
I'm pretty sure valets after this movie, will think again about taking a joy ride in someone else's car, let alone walking out of their house and FORGETTING TO PUT BACK THE OVERLY OCD PSYCHOPATHS BULTCUTTERS. Or, hey maybe not.
Sean, Robert Sheehan, who plays the hero isnt much of one, but just wants to do the right thing. Which one would hope we all would. Things get out of control and those he loves, get hurt at times, worse then himself.
It was lovely to see the captive get one up on her captor, and call the hero out on "this is how you save someone". I'm unsure how many actors could convey what Katie, Kerry Condon, does with her eyes alone. She was stellar.
This movie is perfection.
Go. See. It.
Once you have seen it, tell me..
How many times did you see the Barty Crouch Jr. face?
How many times did you hear the Dr?
