Blu-ray Review Antlers Blu-ray review (1 Viewer)

[Neil Middlemiss]

Antlers is a dark and somber horror affair with impressive dramatic pedigree. Horror master Guillermo Del Toro is amongst the list of producers, which signals a promising production, and I’d say that promise is mostly delivered. The film succeeds ins creating a brooding mood, carrying tension in the production design and cinematography as much as the blood that spills on screen in some well-staged scenes. I find the style of horror mood on display here captivating, perhaps solidified by the X-Files and that show’s moody Vancouver production location shoots. And the persistent damp and cold augments that sense of isolation and potential for scary things that go bump in the night. Antlers is mature and flawed, always compelling and sometimes too familiar, but it ultimately succeeds.
