Review of It Comes at Night (2017) by Lee B — 16 Jan 2018

I will warn you that this film is a slow build, more interested in making you feel uncomfortable than outright horrifying you. It creates a slow depressing feeling that crescendos nicely at the end, but if you're not OK with slow builds then this film might get on your nerves a little.

I must confess there was a point where I wanted a jump scare just to break the tension but the film knew better and held back long enough that when it went for the final attack, I was all in. In general, it's a good effective horror film that has one of the bleakest endings out there.

.. along with a bleak middle and a bleak beginning, it's very bleak in general but it's very good at it thanks to a great cast and a good script for them to work with.
