The Recall

About This Movie

The Recall is an interesting blend of horror and sci-fi that plays with the tropes of alien invasion narratives. There's this uneasy atmosphere from the get-go, especially when you factor in the isolation of the lake house. The pacing feels a bit uneven at times, but it really ramps up in the last act. The practical effects give it a gritty feel that stands out against the more polished CGI-heavy flicks. Performances from the ensemble cast are solid, capturing the mix of dread and disbelief as they face this extraterrestrial threat. It’s not your typical horror fare, which kind of makes it distinctive among its peers, and it often leaves you thinking about the implications of the invasion long after it’s over.
