It’s a horror film made by someone who doesn’t understand horror films.

Don’t Look Now isn’t scary until the end, and if you’re not already asleep by that point then you’re a better man than me.

Not jump frights but pretty tense/creepy/scary tension build up (plus nobbing).

I guess tense and tension are sort of the same thing…

I find it very strange and unnerving

For the record, the scariest film I have seen in the last 20-odd years is probably The Descent

(These are my favourite horror films, not films I’ve found scariest. I don’t want to think about the films I found scariest)

I think she may have forgot how gratuitous is was. Having said that, that scene is shot so well. Cuts to them post-coitally dressing makes it all seem kind of lovely and normal?

Aye when I meant ‘normal’ I meant not deliberately explicit, thrashing around like a drunk dolphin ala Showgirls.
