While cinema as a whole might be suffering at the box office horror cinema certainly isn't with this being one of the best years for horror in quite a few years. With the film that i'm going to be talking about today being a good example of the fact that you don't need a big budget to make a scary film as all you need is a good script and the rest will fall into place and so then join me as I give you mt SPOILER FREE review the film that quite literally puts you in the killers shoes with the film in question simply just "In A Violent Nature" enjoy.
The plot of this film is when a necklace is taken from an old fire hour a killer will get revenge on those that took it once and for all. Now then interms of what I personally thought /felt about the actual plot that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual plot that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film was in all honesty both really good and yet at the same time shockingly simple which in this case isn't a bad thing as it's the films nature to tell a simple story that's easy to follow and is very cut and dry both of which are things that work well enough in this films favour due to it's unique set up that being the fact the film is being told from the point of view of the killer and not from the victims point of view which also has the add of effect of making what could have been seen as a very tired and worn plot and set up with a bunch collage aged kids trying to survive a weekend in the woods seem all the more refreshing and different with the plot of this film also being really rather entertaining and as well as being really engaging as well in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.
Starring in this film is Andrea Pavlovic as Kris , Cameron Love as Colt and Reece Presley as The Ranger. Also starring in this film is Liam Leone as Troy , So Much Tenderness star Charlotte Creaghan as Aurora , Lea Rose Sebastianis as Brodie , Sam Roulston as Ehren , Alexander Oliver as Evan , Friday The 13th Part 2 star Lauren-Marie Taylor as The Woman , Timothy Paul McCarthy as Chuck and Ry Barrett as Johnny.
Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought /felt that the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film was in all honesty really good. Which is really shocking as pretty all of this films cast members are a bunch of unknown actors and as a result of that is the fact that it wouldn't have been wise to expect a good or even great performance from them and while yes some of the performances could have been alot better then what they were given the fact that this film only had a really small budget for just over $4 million American dollars the film does get some credit for having actors that do turn in a good performance alot of the time with even Lauren-Marie Taylor who hasn't acted in anything in over ten years at this point in time still turning a really solid performance in this film with the acting in this film really being helped by the fact that the script for this film is just so good that all this films cast have to do is just say the lines as they are written and a good performance will come out of them alot more naturally which is something that really foes help to raise the overall quality of the acting that's in this film.
This film has quite alot of long shots of just the killer walking which at first does seem like it will get boring. However when you realise that the whole point of the film is to see things from the killers of point of view it does make alot of sense as it's something that does also set up how the killer gets to his targets instead of just appearing in front or behind them like would normally be the case this way feels alot more natural as this is a horror film that's based alot more on reality and that does include seeing the killer do quite alot of walking bit at the same time tho seeing alot of shots of the killer just walking doesn't really add anything to the film which means that those shots do alot of the time feel alot like filler as they don't add thing to the film and are there just to make the film alot more artistic then what it actually is as this film is still fairly artistic due to it's set up and due to the fact that the film has no music and features alot of long shots and as a result of that is the fact that alot of the shots of killer just walking whilst they really do serve the main point of the film do also feel quite alot like filler scenes as well.
Much like how Scream changed the slasher genre this film does so once again by having alot of the focus be on the films villain. With all of the films running time being spent seeing things from the killers perspective which is something that really hasn't been done before now and it's weird that no slasher film has thought of this ides as the idea alone is a creepy and unsettling idea and yet it's taken us until now for this idea to work when it's something that could have been done when slasher films stopped being popular in the late eighties and early nineties but at the same time tho if this idea was done back in the day then this film wouldn't feel fresh , unique and different as it would be repeating an idea that we've already seen before and yet because of the fact that this idea hasn't been done before it helps to make this film stand out from alot of the other films both horror and none horror that are currently out now and that is something that will help this film stand out from all of those other films and while people might not see it because it's franchise name those that will go and see it will get something that they didn't know that they wanted instead of getting the same thing given to them over and over again.
While there are alot of good things to be found in this film there are also quite alot of bad things to be found in this film as well. Like the fact that all of the hero characters aren't that well developed which again might be the idea but at the same time tho the film really should have made the effort to make all if not alot of it's hero characters more fully developed then what they already are because as things stand these characters come across as stereotypical slasher movie characters that have nothing unique about them which in turn has the add on effect of making all of those characters come across as being which in turn does make you want to see them get killed off which is something that really shouldn't happen as you should always want to see them survive even more if there written as being likable characters which is the case with this film and yet because of the fact that there not that fully developed as characters it just makes you route for the killer when what you should be routing for are the films protagonists.
Another one of the films faults is the fact that even tho it's based on a more realistic setting and has a more realistic type of killer. The film does make it's main killer somewhat supernatural not by giving him powers or by having him teleport all other place but by having him come back to life at the start of the film which is something that does clash with the films more realistic take on the slasher genre and while it does feel like an homage to slasher films of the past it's also something that isn't needed as the makers of this film could have had this films villain still be alive and the hero characters still take something that's personal to him without knowing about it like what they did with the first Leprechaun film and yet here they instead chose to go halfway with the more realistic idea which does have the add on effect of making that aspect of the film feel rather underwhelmed and undercooked as it's something that isn't as fully developed as it really could have been with the same thing also being true for the supernatural side of things as well which also makes the film feel alot less fun as the film could have had some fun with it's supernatural side of things and yet because of the fact that that aspect of the film really isn't as focused on all that much the film isn't really allowed to be as fun as it really could have been.
Now then this film has / had an exact grand total running time of exactly one hour and thirty three minuets and fifty two seconds. Which is pretty much the perfect running time for this film as while this film does indeed take it's time telling it's plot as the film is more of a slow burn then what it really should have been with it's running time the film really doesn't have alot of plot to cover anything longer then that anyways and as a result of that is the fact that the film really doesn't need a long running time to really tell it's story and while yes it would have been better if the film did really have a longer running time as that really would allow the film to develop it's hero characters really alot more then what they already do on the flip side tho to do that would also mean that it's basic idea of showing the film from the killers point of view really would be stretching the films idea and it's basic premise even more thing then what it already is but I will admit that this film really does have some really good pacing to it tho.
So now then as this is a slasher fil m that means that I have to actually talk about the actual kills that are actually featured / presented to us in this very film well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that actual kills that are actually featured / presented to us in this very film was in all honesty really good. With all of this films having some really awsome and gnarly kills in it with all of this films being just so cool to watch with what makes the kills in this film so much fun to watch is the fact that there's no music in this film and so the scares that do happen in this film are more genuine scares and the films kills are some really fun and inventive kills with all of this films kills being kills that rally haven't been seen in alot of slasher films before now which is something that is really hard to do as there are alot of slasher films out there and yet with this film we get some genuinely really unique kills with this film being worth watching just for the kills alone as that's just how good the kills in this film really are in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.
Overall this film is worth watching not only for it's unique idea which sets it apart from all of the other slasher films that are out there but this film is also worth watching for all of it's kills and while yes there are some bad things in this film there are alot more good things to be in this film as film as well in my freaking opinions anyways / at least. Now then i've talked about all of the good and as well as all of the bad things that are in this very film in this very review and as such that really does mean that this very film really does earn itself gran old score of exactly an 8 out of 10 from me.
Now then as for where I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very review well then boys and girls and as well as ladies and gentlemen I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very review Tenor , IMP Awards . Com and Google Images. With my personally preferred website to use to get images from this film being Google Images simply because Google Images actually has images from this film really are up and on Google Images and plus pretty much much all of the images that I personally found on Google Images were all really very fairly high quality and as well as being as really very fairly high definition as well and so then horror fans we end this review as we always do with really our one and true goddess Elvira wishing us all some really very unpleasant dreams.
