Review of Bed Rest

Bed Rest (2022)
7/10
No rest for the ... screaming
22 June 2023
Yes I know the saying goes "wicked", but I had to do a pun - which as always is not intended. And as you can see I put a twist on my usual "saying". And horror movies are not all the same either. Yes you get one of the leading ladies of the (newer) Scream (movies) franchise ... does that mean you are to expect her to play a similar role to the other one? Well, I would tell you that that is not the case.

But it also was better than I expected - maybe a 6 would have done it too, but I reckon I was feeling generous. Because the movie may not be that scary (actually you may be even bored - well some of you) ... but it does tell a story and it is quite tight. So while I don't like it when horror movies say "this is not a horror movie" .... maybe you should be aware that this may not be what the trailer "promised" ... I kind of knew that the voiceover was done for the trailer and would not be in the movie - just one of the things to expect or rather not to.

Be aware of what this is (dealing with the past mostly) ... and you will be ok ... something that may not be true when it comes to the main characters here ... or is it?
