for being actually scary instead of just bloody shocking
The creepiest line in the film is spoiled in the trailer, and yet is no less effective when delivered. One of the victims asks of their tormentors, “Why are you doing this to us?” and one of the masked people responds, “Because you were home.”
The idea that simply answering your door at four in the morning could be the trigger for some psycho to kill you is… unlikely, yet scary.
I’m not going to spoil any of the film, because it was truly scary in a way that most recent “horror films” are not. Most recent films just try to shock you with blood and violence and torture. So, go see this film, and be ready for a few good jumps.
