Weeknight WatchWhy it’s a Weeknight Watch
With almost no lasting buzz and a lukewarm 47% audience score, it's a mixed bag. Fine if it's on; don't plan your night around it.
Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.Is it for you?
- Who'll love it
- If you count yourself among fans of survival stories and anyone who likes yelling at characters not to go upstairs, this one's for you. The tension comes from simply getting through the next day. Classic slasher set-up: count who's left standing.
- The mood
- Scary and gory.
- The pace
- Builds dread steadily, at 1 hr 23 min. An easy one to fit in on a school night.
- What might put you off
- Some graphic violence despite the NR rating.
- Skip it if you're after something serious tonight.
Ten years ago, over forty people were brutally torn to pieces in Louisiana’s Honey Island Swamp. Over the past decade, lone survivor Andrew’s claims that local legend Victor Crowley was responsible for the horrific massacre have been met with great controversy. But when a twist of fate puts him back at the scene of the tragedy, Crowley is mistakenly resurrected and Andrew must face the bloodthirsty ghost from his past.
