![]() IMO she was way more frightening as a silhouette.īut overall I think this movie did way more good than bad and was definitely one of the more emotionally driven horror films I've seen in a while. Another small gripe I had was the fact that we saw Diana under blacklight. There were a few scenes that just felt kinda like they were force-feeding the audience information when there were probably better ways to reveal these things. ![]() My biggest issues with the movie came from the script and how expository it could be at times. Without even realizing it I had become so invested in all of these characters and that's when I realized where all the praise for this movie was coming from. And then by the point the third act hit and all the lights in the house went out the movie became so much more intense. The first two acts I just sat there thinking "ok this is pretty good" but I wasn't blown away. Diana latches onto her, Sophie tries to figure out how to be friendly/fair to someone who is obviously in pain (she has a lot of sympathy for someone who is in pain, after all she's in a mental hospital for depression) while still maintaining her boundaries/comfort, Diana chips away at her boundaries more and more and insinuates herself into her life more and more, Sophie starts to try to find out more about Diana, starts to find out disturbing things, Diana starts to "get into Sophie's head" and Sophie's mental health deteriorates as she tries to investigate Diana, Diana starts to become more feral/violent, Sophie starts to become worse, the film ends after Diana's accident, with ghost!Diana and shell of her former self!Sophie being fucked up friends with each other. Maybe even set in the mental hospital and seen through Sophie's eyes. Samara/Sadako works more for me somehow, though.Ī prequel could actually have a lot of potential. When they showed Diana's backstory and when they actually used a phrase similar to "born evil", I did think of Samara/Sadako.
