The perfect horror movie

Rating: 10/10 (17 December 2015)

The main purpose of horror movies is to frighten, to scare, to activate that one place in your brain that makes you feel alive more than ever. This movie has perfected that particular art.
There is so many things to praise that I honestly don't know where to start. This is the scariest movie I have ever seen. Nothing touches it. The suspense and atmosphere are perfect, the scares are legitimately terrifying, the cinematography is amazing, the actors all give great performances (although I would say some of the crew are a bit interchangeable). Truly a perfect movie.
The greatest thing about this movie is that it almost never relies on jump scares, which are just scary, not horrifying or frightening. Like other perfect horror movies such as The Shining and The Silence of the Lambs, the atmosphere is what makes the movie.
It's the third best sci-fi movie (2001: A Space Odyssey and Blade Runner beat it ever so slightly in my opinion) I have ever seen. So, definitely give it a watch. You will not regret it, unless you are literally scared to death.
