An exciting new ambient of terror and intensity.

Rating: 8/10 (4 June 2019)

A strange asteroid of small dimensions crashes into the earth against a lighthouse, days later a strange and alien phenomenon begins to engulf several miles around so they send a team to investigate the strange mystery.
If I can say anything about Annihilation, it is that it is strangely atmospheric and fantastic. The development of the film, the characters, the dialogues, the distance from reality and the alteration of what we know, the fear of the incomprehensible, the special cinematography and the fantastic sound design make the film have a unique and horrifying atmosphere of comic terror.
The film is strange, yes, quite a lot, but not for sensationalist reasons, the mysteries that occur have a motive, although not very understandable to the human, because they are totally alien things to our understanding or motives, the alterations that are suffered around the film through a world that is supposed to be ours, but now seems to be totally different is an enigmatic and distressing sensation that causes our minds to wander for answers in questions that probably do not have, this is a very strong point of the film, the fear of the unknown, something that manages to capture excellently.
A very original and creative horror movie in recent years, with good performances and truly distressing and horrifying moments. Definitely worth a look to go on a journey into the unknown.
