Clearly The Never Rented Blind Fury Back In The Day... "Don't Breathe"
Don't Breathe (2016)
Rated R
Starring Stephen Lang, Jane Levy, Dylan Minnette, Daniel Zovatto,
Directed by Fede Alvarez
The Story:
Rocky (Levy) is trying to find a way to make a better life for her and her little sister and escape their current life. She has been breaking into houses and stealing things with her boyfriend Money (Zovatto) and their friend Alex (Minnette). When they stumble upon the house of a blind veteran (Lang) who has an insurance settlement that they know is just sitting in that house in cash, waiting to be pilfered, they decide to embark on one last score.
After all, it's some old blind guy, what could possibly go wrong?
Buckle up for a tension-filled ride if you've missed this one.
This is another thriller disguised as a horror film, and the tension just continues to mount as the movie rolls along.
If you haven't seen, or don't remember the trailer, it pretty much fills you in on what to expect.
A home invasion goes horribly wrong for the invaders when the blind guy inside is so much more than the 3 burglars could possibly be expecting.
This is a man that knows every inch of his house, and soon becomes the hunter as the intruders struggle to find a way out of the house.
Creepy little thriller that will grab you and keep you intrigued until the end.
My only complaint, this movie, and many others, that keep opening with a scene that chronologically doesn't appear until near the end of the film.
While it can be an effective way to jump right into the action, it's use in horror/thriller movies often takes a little wind out of the sails later in the film because you know that scene is coming.
Unless of course, you've forgotten all about it.
Final Grade: B-
