The Outwaters (2022)

I truly wish I could give this film a better rating. The premise is great, the blood effects are phenomenal, I just couldn’t see much of anything! You rely on the small beam of light a character uses in the second half and all you can make out are eyes and faces! Don’t believe the hype. This is a disappointing attempt at avant garde found footage filmmaking, that literally loses itself in the dark. Also, the dialogue and character interactions are incredibly jarring, it doesn’t flow well in my opinion, and most of it is stiff and unnatural. The first 20 or so minutes will be the only coherent dialogue so brace yourself.
