Review of Beast

Beast (I) (2022)
7/10
Solid 7/10
4 September 2022
This was a blast at the cinemas because I don't think I would have enjoyed it this much at home. Some jumpscares really got me.

I loved how most of the scenes were one-shot. It really added tension to the story and it was also so useful to make it feel more real. I just could imagine how the cameraman walked and drew circles around the characters as they kept acting. So obvious it was rehearsed many times to be able to do this. The effort really paid well.

I also think it did pull it off when comes to making an original film. Surely it reminded of Cujo (1983) but still this one did a good job at staying original.

Girls really acted well with the main character.

Makeup was also good. Sfx team knew how to picture the wounds and make it close enough to the real.

Overall, it's solid 7/10 for me. I definitely want to own this one on bluray.
