Absolutely killer script elevated only by the perfect casting to bring these roles to life, sure Sophie Thatcher and Hugh Grant are obviously amazing, but Chloe East really surprised me - if you told me they grabbed her out of one of those BYU campus tiktoks I would have believed you.
Plus there’s a shot near the end that’s so good it completely seals the deal for me, Heretic is a masterful thriller that doesn’t rely on cheap jumpscares to be effective.
I picked this for movie night with my friends and now I’m not allowed to pick the movie anymore :(
I gotta hand it to Eggers, after hearing people rave about The Witch and bouncing off it TWICE, he’s really won me over with each consecutive release of his, and Nosferatu is no different. This is a director at the absolute peak of his game, a man who has honed his craft to near-perfection, Nosferatu is a shining example of storytelling the way it was meant to be told.
The vibes in this film are absolutely immaculate, some of the most beautiful…
Saw this in 4DX, which I won’t get too into but first off, the hydraulics were LOUDER THAN THE MOVIE, the smell-o-vision sucked, but my seat actively trying to forcibly remove me during the middle of a tornado scene never got old lol
Now as for the movie - sucked, boring, bland, sure watching tornadoes suck shit up was fun and I did have a big smile on my face when we almost got a fire tornado, but other than those…
