Baghead (2023)
The only thing I'll remember is the silly title!
Shame. I really wanted to enjoy it more.
Intriguing premise. A creature that can bring the dead for 2 minutes! And only 2 or it will take control (But doesn't that sound familiar? Talk to Me, anyone?)
Freya Allan (The Witcher) did her best as did the supporting cast, featuring the likes of Peter Mullan (Tyrannosaur) and Saffron Burrows (Deep Blue Sea).
Unfortunately the film lacked any real tension or suspense and despite its surprisingly short length, it felt like a real slog. Relieved by a few jump scares.
I just wish more time was spent on the origin of the creature and character depth to actually feel anything.
It just seemed to go through the motions with the same ol' predictable hokum and some bizarre 2000s visual effects from The Mummy films.
A shame. It killed the time but it won't be haunting my memories for long.
