Speak No Evil

i found myself feeling incredibly frustrated throughout the film. The only scary thing about it is how useless the parents are at fighting and protecting themselves/their child. Effectively nothing happens. They don't fight back, there's no tension. They just ignore all red flags and let shit happen without trying to protest at all. My blood pressure is high now, but not because it was scary, but how angry I am at all the useless people in this film.

Damn this was good, the ending really delivered too! Would watch again!

The issue with this film is that there is nothing happening. They were never going to fight back, so there was no tension. Nothing, no conflict, no story, no drama, just empty. They were never going to even try to save their child. Every scene is pointless because there's nothing happening, the bad guy isn't threatening because the family already accepted it and allowed it before they even met him. there was no realisation because they already knew if he was a bad guy, they'd just go along with him anyway. So no emotion counts, no menace counts. It amounts to the same interest as a quiet but good child already knowing they'll listen to the teacher, even if that teacher makes a mistake about who made that noise or whatever. Ultimately boring and the least realistic depiction of someone in real life danger I've ever seen

Blew my mind! what better than the remake and way more disturbing!

One of those movies that should have dads asking themselves if they're an ineffectual wimp. Ending kind of made me say meh. . .
