Red Light

About This Movie

So, 'Red Light' is this low-budget horror that really leans into the gritty and unsettling vibe of the genre. The atmosphere is thick with tension, especially as the group of friends get deeper into their dire situation. The pacing has its moments, building up a sense of dread before the chaos hits. The practical effects are pretty decent for what it is—definitely not over-reliant on CGI, which I appreciate. The performances have this raw quality too, especially the interactions between the influencer and her friends, which feels very real. What stands out is how the film critiques social media culture while wrapping it in a twisted narrative with those two brothers that feel like they stepped out of a nightmare. It's definitely a ride.
