Horror for the X-Factor generation

Rating: 3/10 (2 March 2019)

With Climax Noe injects all his trademarks with good effect, such as 'out of the comfort zone' themes and stunning cinematography and effects. However, where these are used to great effect with titles such as 'Irreversible' and 'Enter the Void', with Climax they are the only elements worth mentioning. The afore mentioned films had a lot more going for them, where Cilmax, seems to me, to fall flat. The first hour of the film is full on ITV Saturday night mainstream entertainment. Great fun for the lovers of X Factor etc, no doubt. The characters are also 2 dimensional and not very likeable, were the only topic and conversation seems to be about sex. Now I know most of the characters are young and they are placed in a party scenario, but this doesn't lead to a very engaging script or narrative. If you like your horrors full of dull (in my opinion) street dancing, this is the one for you....just dont expect much depth....
