A dark drama? Elements of horror?
Look, horror and dark shouldn't be mistaken for movies like Martyrs, Human centipede, Saw or A serbian film.
Movies that tend to shock more than anything, than presenting a decent plot, are usually a waste of time for me.
Torture porn, or extreme gore are cheap shortcuts into getting a production associated with the greater horror, shocker, twister of a film.
This one fell flat from the beginning, it was hard to stay connected to it, even tho it has some positives, like camera work, filming, acting.
But the movie itself, didn't work for me, it tried and I guess succeeding in a non linear storyline, a thing presentes from the very start, but offered very little. I can't associate it with any in the woods horror, no real drama, no tension, no nail bitting so sadly I have to say Repulse is a swing and a miss.
I had no expectations when I started it, but quickly realised I will not enjoy this one. Barely made it to the end, a struggle really, the only good thing about this journey is the run time that stands at 90 min.
I can't say that I simply didn't understand it, but it doesn't fit anywhere and it's not a great way to pass the time. Thus I will not recommend it.
Cheers!
