Review of Dread (2009) by Jill K — 08 Sep 2012

Starts of with a rather interesting premise but it's a bit over long to cause a lasting impact. And that impact will rely later on on some shocking gory scenes to keep you on the edge of your seat. Nevertheless, it's a smartly crafted on a technical level psychological horror flick, with a good story but mediocre script and too slow story-telling. A bunch of unknown but very talented actors actually help a lot the flick and you will curse their choices and hate the villain with a passion (for the best reasons).

Worth a look, specially if you are a fan of flicks that explore fear and how it destroys you. A nice companion and different perspective to the vastly superior Martyrs.
