Review of Creep (2014) by Tony F — 02 Jan 2019
This is basically a dark comedy. The movie is creepy in many ways and builds up a lot of tension, but gets very silly by the end.
Guess what, that's the point! This movie perfectly parodies a bunch of cliches in horror and especially the found footage subgenre. Think about it, all the stupid plot holes are found in virtually all horror movies.. and this movie wears it on the sleeve in a VERY intentional way.
I loved this movie and I am convinced that the vast majority of reviewers who hated it completely missed the point and looked at it very surface level. It's the same type of people who hate on intelligent horror movies because they aren't the standard fair that they expect.
If you want something clever that works both as a dark comedy and a psycho horror film, look no further.
