And this week's Friday night movie has been... Get Out!
It's October and with it comes the tradition of watching horror movies. And we're starting this year's clutch of horror movies with a doozy.
Clearly the strength of this movie lies in the unease that it brings. I've spoken previously how the best kind of horror is the kind that relies on atmosphere over jump scares and this one delivers in spades. I found the movie was at it's best when it showed just how freaky it is to wander into a situation where everyone is acting strangely and something funny is going on (but you can't put your finger on it).
Indeed, a lot has to be said for the execution, balancing tension that would've done Hitchcock proud with some very dark humour.
Seems the success this movie has garnered happened for a very good reason.
