The Damned

"A fishing outpost running low on supplies sees a shipwreck on a nearby rock face. Being so low on supplies they offer no assistance. Later they get an indication that there may be supplies floating in the water so they go to investigate and gather. However, they find there are still survivors out there and have to make the decision again but this time looking them in the eye and dealing with the aftermath of that decision. This is a slow burn psychological thriller than a full on horror to me. They do a good job of building that tension and making things ambiguous enough where we, as the audience, start to question things. I think the ending does pay off. However, it was exactly what I thought it was. I was hoping for something more over the top or unexpected since it was a slow build up. Good performances, good practical effects, and great use of that environment. It just needed a little more to move into the great category. As is it’s a solid thriller/horror that is worth a watch.

"Slow burn, atmospheric, and worth a watch if you're patient, like to think, and aren't just looking for gore, explosions, or a very surface-level horror movie. "

"Honestly one of the weakest horror movie I’ve seen. Story seems to be simply written yet a bit confusing. The horror doesn’t come from the plot or even the effects but comes from the loudness of this film. Definitely nothing special."
