Sabrina

Ever wonder what Kenny G would look like if he were to be possessed? Wonder no more. Some parts were good. Others made me wonder why I haven't stopped the movie. I really didn't care how it ended... so I opened Pinterest and had it playing on in the background. Husband fell asleep.

Overrated, boring ,stupid plot film. No point to waste time for this trash.

This is a very cheesy but colorful and an adventure full horror movie. I would say this is targeted more towards pre-teens. Don't expect much though, the writing and acting is garbage.

Sabrina is a neat little film ruined by a number of flaws that prevent it from being something really special.

This Indonesian made Netflix original at first glimpse you'd assume is a killer doll-esque movie, but that couldn't be further from the truth. If you're looking for Chucky or Robert the doll you'll be sorely disappointed, this is more your possession type film.

Now regarding the possession sub-genre I generally don't like them, the tropes they hold tend to bore me but thankfully they throw most of them out the window here and go for something somewhat more exciting.

Now I can't say much about the plot without giving something away so I'll not bother. I will however say that when the story is finally laid out in front of you I think you'll be pleasantly surprised, it's well constructed and very much not predictable.

Again as mentioned sadly the film does have its flaws, a couple regard the story and one near the end took this down from a potential 7 to 6. Another is the lack of consistency, it plays out like a serious horror yet has moments of ultra cheesiness that ruin the atmosphere altogether.

Regardless this is a very fun, exciting and oddly scary in places little film that is not what you'd expect it to be. Despite my underwhelming rating I would recommend this.

The Good:

Surprisingly well constructed plot

Some genuinely creepy moments

The Bad:

Some poor camerawork

Bizarre soundtrack choices

Oddly cheesy in places

Silly finale

I struggled to tell the two leading ladies apart

Things I Learnt From This Movie:

I'm left wondering if the casting director specifically sought out the sickest looking girl they could for the role

Demonic possession causes nose growth

You know when you wanna watch something but like using only 30% of your brain? That's the movie. Bad movie, but a good distraction. It's not actually scary though.
