Coming Soon (2008)
10/10
Haven't seen such a great horror movie in a while!
1 January 2017
Warning: Spoilers
Watched this because it was recommended by a friend, who said it was very good.

It is excellent! It does not overly rely on jump scares, even though there is a big one at the end. The horror comes from the atmosphere of the story. It is well written with a great twist. Also, the characters are believable. There are no Mary Sues or Jack Sues. No one survives.

PS: Have been doing a horror movie marathon recently. Watched End of the Line, Coming Soon, who are both very good, and Blair Witch, which is poor, even by Hollywood standards.

Conclusion: Hollywood mainstream horror movies generally fail to be horrifying. Good horror movies are generally not as well known, but smartly crafted. They usually come from countries other than US.
