Movie Review: The Influence (2019) October Horror Fest 2022 (16/31)


As you know from previous posts I've watching other countries horror movies instead on focusing on american stuff because unfortunately the last movies I've watch they focus on social stuff - usual depicting white people as evil or white male mainly. So I am trying other countries stuff AND older stuff.

This tale is all over the place. I can see people hating or loving it. The reason behind is the synopsis was already done on other movies and nothing innovative really come UNTIL the end.

Basically you've got a couple with a small child (daughter) that go back home to take care of her grandmother. As the story unfolds we get to learn more about the main woman's mother and upbringing and the torment that she  (the bedridden woman) gave to all of his famly. A mix of satanism & witch she did a lot of awful things and the purpose  of all was to get eternal life.  

The story is very slow, apart from some more action scenes right in the end.  It's a body switch kind of situation that makes you wonder right until the end on what happened.
