Review of The Turning (2020) by Bowi — 27 Jun 2022

It's not my type of horror. This is some kind of psychological drama and thriller. Sadly, the "psychology" is limited to "going crazy". Masters like Mike Flanagan will use psychology as one tool from a whole toolbox in order to tell a great story, but this "The Turning" movie only use the phychology for horror. In a way, this is like a "body horror" movie, except you have to replace "body" for "mind" or "psychology": "psychological horror". Sadly, it's not a good story... People are going crazy for no reason and the story doesn't make any sense after only five or ten minutes.

I think this movie suffers from an identity crisis... It should not have been a surnatural horror movie. It just sucked. Also, I still don't understand the meaning of the title.
