Review of The Visit (2015) by Charlie C — 03 Aug 2016
M. Night has more than made up for all his past transgressions and is back on track towards being the undisputed horror genius of his generation. Sick and distorted update on Stephen King's "Misery" and "The Shining" mashed up in a "Blair Witch"/"PA" twist, but this time (Thank God) finally during the digital age, no need to strain your eyes.
Every inescapable situation was plausible and the characters do what they should (read: no dumb blond big tits moments). MNS keeps you effortlessly hooked from the start and sustains that ambiguous sensation of a bad bad dream that seems too fucking real you try desperately to wake out of.
..BUT CAN'T. Note to viewer: set your smartphones to remind you at the last 30 mins to "breathe, it's just a movie.".
