[6.00/10] Oculus (2014)

Oculus (2014)

Quick Review: Even though its 'killer mirror' premise doesn't sound original, or very promising, "Oculus" turns out to be a pretty reasonable horror chiller, that doesn't rely on gore, or in-your-face scares to give you the creeps, but mostly on the silent dread it exudes throughout. Sure, the film is far from frightening and not as atmospheric as it could have been, but its story that blends past, present, and surrealism finely, will keep you entertained right to the satisfyingly dark ending.

Didn't make it to the theater to see this one, but will watch on NetFlix.
I know - that's my answer for every movie. But I have to fill the hours at work with something!

Alex, me neither... and that's just because it hasn't been released theatrically in my country.

I wish I had a job like yours. lol.
