The Rating System

All opinions are my own. We are all different. What I may think is great, you may this terrible. Don't let my opinios stop you from exploring the vast world of horror in all media.

~Mind Blowing: Search for this movie immediately. It can only be described as pure greatness and possible an instant classic.

~So Good: Highly recommended because for one reason or another it stands out above the usual fair. Put the movie on your radar as it wont disappoint.

~In the Middle: The movie is a nothing special, average affair. It may entertain in the short term but it will be easily forgettable in the long haul.

~Warning: This movie is a cliched driven slop of familiar territory. Only watch if you're really of fan of this type of material.

~Steaming Pile: The movie is absolute garbage, a complete bore, and not worth the time or effort.

Regression (2015)

Starring: Ethan Hawke, Emma Watson, David Thewlis, Dale Dickey, Aaron Ashmore
Director: Alejandro Amenabar

Premise:
A father confesses to raping his daughter but has no memory of committing the act. The detective investigating the case begins to believe a Satanic cult is the cause.

My Take:
The movie does a good job at building up suspense and keeping the viewer guessing on what may actually be happening due to the incorporation of victims having false memory planted. Too bad the way it wraps up is rather unsatisfying.

Rating: In the middle

Watched: Amazon Prime
