Death Rink

About This Movie

Death Rink is a peculiar entry in the horror genre, leaning heavily into that eerie, claustrophobic atmosphere of an abandoned roller rink. You can almost feel the cold air and hear the faint echo of wheels on the floor. The pacing is a bit uneven, with some drawn-out moments that build tension nicely, while other scenes propel the narrative forward at a brisk clip. The practical effects are where this film shines—there's something about the tactile nature of physical effects that just enhances the scares. And the performances, while not Oscar-worthy, have a raw quality that fits the vibe of the film. It’s got this distinctive tone, blending nostalgia with dread, which makes it stand out among the typical slashers.
