Not perfect but it's not as trashy as its name suggests.

Rating: 7/10 (11 March 2019)

Despite the lazy title I thought this was an above average horror movie.
The heart of the movie is not the menace though, it's our main character, someone who has built his life around telling true stories on the hunt for a new one and when he stumbles across what would be the true crime book of the century risks taking things a step too far.
That very first scene is (unusually) a good indication of the quality you can expect. The tantalising mystery we discover alongside the main guy made me feel conflicted on whether I want to tell him to get out while he still can or to keep digging that little bit more to uncover the mystery.
The other characters are pretty annoying but a lot of visuals make up for that. The movie balancing the unseen menace and the seen menace pretty skilfully. Which is rare.
I feel a bit cheated by the ending but overall this was refreshing.
