Review of The Tenant (2011) by Alex C — 10 Feb 2013

This film was dreadful and not in a good way. The movie starts with a flashback which encompasses 40 minutes (half of the movie pretty much) and goes on way too long. The prologue is supposed to set up the second half of the film but what happens is mostly confusing and infuriating.

When the movie does get going it is revealed to us that most of the potential victims who will die are mute children making this the quietest horror movie ever made. Anyway I think the movie breaks a lot of common sense rules even for horror movie standards.

When all was said and done I just felt anger. Avoid the movie unless you're a hardcore Michael Berryman fan.
