score 10/10
I've heard all about this franchise and have actually seen the 2003 remake and the 2006 prequel (haven't seen the 2003 one in a while though and don't plan on rewatching the 2006 one).
You'd think that with the reputation and name of this franchise that this inaugural film would be a blood splatter massacre (no pun intended) with a high body count. That's not at all what you get here. I was extremely enlightened and pleasantly surprised that this was just as much atmospheric and beautiful as it was gritty and maniacal. The cinematography in particular was a highlight and I don't mind the claustrophobic shots of faces (because this is a horror film) and the fast paced editing in parts because they knew exactly what they were going for and nailed it in my opinion. The plot wasn't too ridiculous everything about the final sequence/dinner scene was plausible if you ask me. LOVED IT 10/10
Films like these are the reason I love cinema.
