The scariest movie of the year? No, it wasn't.

Rating: 3/10 (25 November 2019)

I went to the cinema to see this movie, after the adverts and trailers claimed it to be 'the scariest film of the year!'
It was by far, not scary. If anything, I actually got a bit bored.
The way the movie progressed, it felt as if the director filmed a gritty family drama and then at the last minute, decided to change it to a horror movie, in an attempt to parrallel the classics, like The Exorcist.
The last act of the film is so out of context with the rest of the plot, it felt extremely rushed and completely pointless.
Now, don't get me wrong, the drama and acting was quite good. IF the film had remained as a dark and tense drama/thriller, I would probably have enjoyed it, as I would have not gone to the cinema expecting to see a horror movie.
It was not the scariest film of the year. It was OK until the last 10 minutes or so. Not going to waste my time with it again.
