The Dark and the Wicked

The film is all about madness at best. Main characters lose their mind and we watch their hallucinations. All the religious references in the film leads to nowhere. The film has a few good jump scares and quite a good beginning which makes you think the rest of the film is going to get somewhere. Unfortunately it doesn’t. **I wouldn’t watch it again, nor would I make my friends watch it**.

> _loved this one_ let's start with the poster. I expected some red vibes like from "_evil dead_" something. but turns out, it's showed a _dark sepia tone_ which works. it's been a while since I was gasped and terrified for a horror movie. the sound and music are effective. I mean, this horror built by this sound. not like a creepy orchestra, but a chaotic chromatic sound. _beautiful and terrifying._ my interpretation is we should learn to let go of our loved ones. when the priest said: > "the devil is already here" yes, it's there because you still cling to your loved ones. to let go is not to deny but to accept. to let go is to fear less and love more. I'm sorry if you find this overanalyze.

The scariest new film that I've seen in 2020, 'The Dark and the Wicked' is well-crafted, moodily evocative, and best watched through one's fingers. - Jake Watt Read Jake's full article... https://www.maketheswitch.com.au/article/review-the-dark-and-the-wicked-2020s-scariest-film
