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.

Taking Lives

2004

An Abyss of Identity and Terror Taking Lives is far from a standard police procedural; it is a claustrophobic plunge into psychological horror that preys on the unsettling anxiety of identity theft. Director D.J. Caruso transforms a serial killer hunt into a paranoid nightmare where identity is never a safe harbor, but rather a mask to be ripped away and donned by a monster. The atmosphere is saturated with a sense of looming doom, featuring cinematography that evokes a visceral, disturbing tension typical of the finest psychological thrillers. The true pillar of the...

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
