“I heard something…”
Cobweb released in select theaters on July 21st 2023. The horror film stars Lizzy Caplan, Antony Starr, Cleopatra Coleman, and Woody Norman. It runs for approximately an hour and thirty minutes.
Peter begins to hear something inside his bedroom wall, but his parents insist that it is only in his imagination. Peter is determined to find out what lies beyond the wall, unlocking dangerous secrets in the process.
Here is the trailer:
Cobweb weaves together an unsettling story filled with plenty of disturbing and hair-raising moments. Is it worthy of your next watch? Let’s find out…
The Pros:
Unsettling from start to finish…
This movie didn’t waste any time with unnecessary fluff or set-up. We got right into the creepy stuff and I was on the edge of my seat the entire time. This film was very effective at creating an eerie tone and even some of the conversations and small moments felt very unnerving, adding to the overall vibe.
In a lot of ways, this film sort of reminded me of a mix of The Black Phone and Barbarian. It explored tangible fears while keeping the audience guessing about where the real threat was.
Insane final act!
I already thought this movie was freaky enough, but then we got to the final act and my jaw dropped. It was crazy in the best way possible. I haven’t been this excited about a reveal in a horror movie in a long time. It grabbed hold of the audience and never let go, effectively giving me some new nightmares in the process!
Wow…
The Cons:
The characters make some really bad decisions…
Look, I get it. We wouldn’t have a movie if they didn’t, but I was almost yelling at the screen at some points. I just don’t get it when characters decide to investigate things on their own without calling anyone…
It’s not realistic, but I’ll leave this alone because the movie was so fantastic.
So am I in or out?
I’m in!!!
A terrifying and captivating watch that will stick with you long after it’s over!
This movie was such a fantastic surprise and an absolute must see watch for horror fans!
