Bonfire

About This Movie

Bonfire is an interesting exploration of youthful naivety colliding with harsh realities. The film unfolds over a weekend, featuring three girls who engage in a game of truth or dare that spirals into something darker. The atmosphere is thick with tension, enhanced by practical effects that feel grounded rather than flashy. The pacing is deliberate, allowing moments of unease to build organically. There's a rawness in the performances that captures the essence of adolescence—those moments where innocence is tested. It’s not just a horror flick; it digs into themes of trust and the fragility of friendship when faced with uncomfortable truths. The whole vibe leaves you with this lingering question about the boundaries of play and the seriousness of our choices.
