A teenager spends his summer working for his dad, falls in love, and confronts an ancient demonic entity.
Strong opening sequence to get your undivided attention, followed by some American cliche, but… don’t let that trick you. The indie spirit of filmmaking makes it interesting, original (partially), funny, agonising, and quite scary. Until halfway through the second act, it feels like it’s two different films eagerly waiting to become one. Past the second act’s montage, the moment you start thinking: “Yes, but how…”stop it! Play along! The Wretched beats many conventions, making it a highly enjoyable must-watch summer horror flick (if you didn’t watch it last year). The HUGE POSITIVE SURPRISE is Piper Curda, who is as hilarious as she is thrilling. She definitely stands out.
The Wretched is a highly enjoyable summer horror flick (not for the whole family) to spend an hour and a half, forgetting our sad reality. I hope you feel the same way.
