Tamara

About This Movie

Tamara is an interesting blend of horror and thriller, sliding into that early 2000s vibe. It flips the script on the high school revenge trope, with a pretty unique premise. The lead, Jenna Dewan, really commits to her role, transforming from the nerdy outcast into a sultry figure of vengeance after her resurrection. The film uses a mix of practical effects and some solid makeup work to create that eerie atmosphere, which is nice to see in an age where CGI was starting to dominate. The pacing's a bit uneven, but it actually adds to the unsettling feel. It's not groundbreaking, but it has a certain charm that makes it stand out in the genre. Plus, the soundtrack has some catchy tracks that fit the mood well.
