The family of three – father, mother and teenage son, lives in is protected from all external threats the house in the woods. Outside rages a terrible virus for a few days to kill its bearers. But one night a relatively quiet family life ends when the intruder is on their doorstep and asked them to save his family from certain death.
A small but very important note, which should be noted before watching the movie – do not trust the distributors. After reading the official synopsis of the tape Trey Edward Shults is the risk of Contracting the expectation of a brutal and bloody horror, but such expectations are not justified. Because “It comes at night” in the first place not so much horror, how very realistic the paranoid Thriller. So fans of the game, brisk scenes with chases and fights, as well as fanged monsters and wheezing zombie game. The action on the screen is viscous, slow, and at the same time constricting the throat and not allowing any break away for a second.
Schulz stands for the world of history gradually and only in those dosages that are needed, without pretensions to heavy image of post-Apocalypse, but without the radical minimalism. The film is limited to the strength of a pair of locations – the house and the nearby forest, which allows more focus on the people and the story goes. The characters, accordingly, are subject to the laws of the world in which we live – where the standard horror film hero would have heard the noise in the night and happily went to look for the source, they are not thinking to grab a gun and awaken the family. If you need to protect your hearth in any way, and you have to get used to living “on edge”. Accordingly, the film is not exchanged on unnecessary savoring the terrible effects of the virus, and studying the nature of people who have by all means to fight for existence – and it closest relative, he has the darkest “the Road” with Viggo Mortensen.
Describing acting, it is impossible not to allocate Joel Edgerton. In “Warrior” and “the Great Gatsby” he showed that he is a great actor, but the role in “It comes by night” has crossed this mark in the summary below in bold to ascribe to the side “a terrific actor”. The Edgerton, as far as possible, not overshadowing the bright and colleagues in the area, which are also laid out in full and not a single gesture is not “fail” their characters.
About camera work do not want to talk and want a standing ovation. Each frame of each scene shot just fine, the same chamber of a tape and wish it was not. It is impossible to overlook and terrific “noise” soundtrack in the best tradition of “the ring”, could not be better reflects the mood of each scene (you can listen to it here).
“It comes at night” – a brutal, emotional Thriller live and not for the General public. In comparison with the counterparts in the genre, he looks leisurely, but at times more believable and therefore much more frightening. And here is the frightening realization that a story like this many of us had become victims of new realities or to change, and not for the better. And don’t expect a story with this beginning will be with you gentle.
