Review of The Feast

The Feast (2021)
7/10
Folk/Horror and Eco/Horror good movie
13 September 2021
I saw it Thursday night at MotelX.

At the closing session of MotelX, this film received the Méliés D'argent - Best European Feature 2021 award.

I understand the Jury's decision, as it is a film that brings together two strong trends in current horror cinema, Folk/Horror, with a story largely based on Gaelic folklore using Welsh language, and Echo/Horror in vogue for its role in social awareness of the climate emergency we are currently experiencing.

Forethoughts aside, it's actually a good movie with excellent cinematography, gorgeous footage, well-crafted with a captivating story in increasing tension and good straight, hard horror with well-executed gore.

Its negative aspects, in my opinion, are an initial narrative rhythm that is too slow and despite the good performances of the actors in general, some "overacting" in some scenes. However, i highlight it is a good horror movie that I recommend.
