Review of The Town that Dreaded Sundown (2014) by Eytan D — 31 Jan 2015
Leave it to Jason Blum, producer of "Insidious" and "Sinister", and the nifty "American Horror Story" team of Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa and Alfonso Gomez- Rejon to craft a truly unique horror film.
This take on "The Town That Dreaded Sundown" isn't scary, but with Aguirre-Sacasa's script and Gomez-Rejon's direction, a stylish and fast-paced energy is created along with a smart, "Scream"-like story that embraces self-reference and at the same time respects the original film (which, let's be honest, needed an update).
It is violent, moody, and devilishly entertaining. P.S. Addison Timlin is an actress to watch.
