Preservation

Preservation - review
2014
7
Director: 
Christopher Denham

SYNOPSIS: 

An anesthesiologist (Wrenn Schmidt) must stir her animal senses when she, her better half and her brother by marriage turn into the quarry of concealed hunters who need to transform them all into trophies.

REVIEW: 

So this is somewhat of a spoiler, however the "motif" of this motion picture is the killers are young people - however I'm certain you likely made sense of that when you read they ride bikes.
That all by itself is insufficient to destroy this film. What is, in any case, is their appearing invulnerability (when it's helpful, obviously). The previously mentioned Sean is a previous military veteran who, at a certain point, hits one of the children in the head with the handle of his rifle most likely five or six times. Not exclusively does the executioner get up as though nothing happened, Sean doesn't have enough sense (remember, he is prepared close by to hand battle) to make certain the person is unarmed, dead, oblivious, or any of the above. Rather, he walks out on him. Another scene sees a child bounce back from a flat out beating as though nothing has happened. At first I thought maybe the masks made them strong, but this is not the situation. It's scene after scene of this, and unpleasant subplots that go no place, alongside unlikable characters, that make this motion picture hard to sit through. The quest for the assassins at last is totally mind blowing and ludicrous, however the child interfering with a slaughtering to answer a call from his mother was engaging. I had high trusts in this film (for reasons unknown) however Preservation at last puts on a show of being an irregular blend of Eden Lake and Wrong Turn.

Iron Lung

2025

An Immersion into Claustrophobic Nightmare Iron Lung marks the cinematic directorial debut of Mark Fischbach (Markiplier), and it does so with a vision that bets everything on psychological tension and body horror. The film perfectly translates the essence of the original material: that suffocating feeling of being trapped in a metal box, surrounded by an ocean of blood on an alien moon. The strength of the film lies in its industrial and grimy aesthetic. Markiplier’s direction doesn't hunt for cheap jump scares; instead, it builds constant dread through sound design—... Read More

Ash

2025

"Ash" presents itself as a visually hypnotic work that blends claustrophobic science fiction with a "mindbender" psychological thriller. Under the visionary direction of musician and filmmaker Flying Lotus, the film moves away from classic space-opera tropes to focus on a visceral narrative charged with tension. The strength of the film lies in the chemistry between the two leads, Eiza González and Aaron Paul, who successfully convey a constant sense of paranoia. The cinematography is dominated by crimson tones and deep blacks (as suggested by the poster), creating a... Read More

DoobaDooba

2025

"Dooba Dooba," distributed by Dark Sky Films, stands as one of the most peak-disturbing examples of modern found footage and analog horror. The film breaks away from traditional tropes to become a sensory experiment, where the narrative is not guided by classic direction but by the cold, grainy gaze of domestic security cameras. It is a work that dances on the thin line between clinical paranoia and supernatural terror, utilizing a color palette dominated by a suffocating neon red that transforms the house into a distorted, geometric trap. The film's true power lies in... Read More

The Ugly Stepsister

2025

The Aesthetics of Pain in "The Ugly Stepsister". "The Ugly Stepsister" belongs to that contemporary wave of cinema that delights in dismantling the foundations of classic fairy tales to reveal their most rotten and realistic core. Director Emilie Blichfeldt doesn't settle for a simple horror "rebranding" of Cinderella; she stages a descent into hell that is as visually sumptuous as it is psychologically unbearable. A Fierce Critique of Perfection The beating heart of the film is the obsession with the body. While in the original tale the "ugliness" of the... Read More
