The Invisible Man (2020)
Elisabeth Moss has established herself as household name in the horror genre.
Presentation:
The film looks nice and clean as you'd expect from a sci-fi horror. The special effects are immersive and tension is subtly built. Camera movement and scares are well executed. Story is phenomenal building upon a classic with a modern interpretation.
Story:
When things start to take off, they really take off. There is something exciting about an invisible foe, blurring the lines between supernatural and human. There are some scenes that make your jaw drop and the pacing of the film is executed perfectly. Great scares and bravo performance from the protagonist, whom really shoulders the entire movie, literally, as she is the only one in frame.
Conclusion:
One of the most fun horror films of the decade and an incredible performance from Elisabeth Moss. If all remakes are made like this, I have no problem with them.
