Trent suspects that the whole thing is a publicity stunt for the novel’s release, but as he searches for Kane, he finds the line between Kane’s fictional world and reality start to fray and overlap in disturbing ways.</p> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">Review</h2> <p class="wp-block-paragraph">John Carpenter goes full <a href="https://www.horrormovietalk.com/2020/02/05/color-out-of-space-review-tara-westwood-interview/" type="post" id="3729">Lovecraftian</a>, melding his trademark independent film sensibilities and impressive practical effects with cosmic horror. If you look at his Rotten Tomatoes or IMDB ratings, you will also see that this is his last major film with significant critical and audience praise. It marks the end of an era where scrappy 80s gore and body horror was supplanted by slicker high budget meta narratives. This movie ushered in the new era with the likes of <a href="https://www.horrormovietalk.com/2020/06/10/candyman-1992-review/" type="post" id="4289">Candyman</a>, The New Nightmare, and <a href="https://www.horrormovietalk.com/2020/06/17/scream-review/" type="post" id="4319">Scream</a>.</p> <p class="wp-block-paragraph">standing between two eras, this definitely has more of an esthetic aligned with the scrappy indy vibe of Romero and <a href="https://www.horrormovietalk.com/2021/03/31/the-thing-1982-review/" type="post" id="5372">Carpenters previous work</a>. The idea takes center stage and isn’t handled preciously. It presents itself as a cool thing and lets the audience take a little ride without delving deep into the psychological or taking itself too seriously. Kind of like a Stephen King novel actually.</p> <p class="wp-block-paragraph">I picked this one because of the passing of Sam Neill and he does a great job here being the everyman descending into, you guessed it, madness. We also get Happy Gilmore’s grandma being freaky af, Vigo the Carpathian, and a very young Hayden Christiansen.</p> <p class="wp-block-paragraph">Like I said before, it’s a fun ride that doesn’t take itself too seriously. My only criticism is that it does rely on some repetitive cinematic moves such as jump scares and arbitrary time loops. But it’s all to service the films uneasy vibe and give impact to the singular moments of cosmic horror.</p> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">Score</h2> <p class="has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph">7/10</p>
