U-Turn

About This Movie

So, U-Turn from 2020, it’s got this eerie vibe throughout, you know? The pacing is pretty tight; it keeps you on edge as the young reporter digs deeper into these suicides. The road itself—it's almost a character, cursed and sinister, giving off this palpable sense of dread. Practical effects are done well; they enhance the tension without overdoing the gore. The performances are solid too, especially how the lead navigates her unraveling sanity. Themes of obsession and the supernatural are woven in, making it distinct from typical horror fare. It doesn’t rely solely on jump scares, which is refreshing. It’s all about the atmosphere, building that creeping unease that lingers long after the credits roll.
