Captive

This was my personal favorite of the movies on Frightening Ass Film Fest.

If like me, you're a fan of suspense, and love a movie packed with tension, then this one will tick a lot of boxes for you. It's very tense, at times a little grim, and I guess on occasion you'll need to suspend belief, but it's gripping, very cleverly crafted. The film felt very different to other horror/thrillers I've seen recently, there was a fair bit of originality to it..

The first part of the film was somewhat moderate, built up tension. The second half of the film trebles the tension, at times the twists are almost back to back, it was expertly done.

William Kircher plays the cabin owner and is pitch perfect here. the other main actress is good, but WK steals the show in my opinion. for me, this is a clear 7/10.

Interesting story that keeps you guessing until the last second. A lot of character development, great acting performances and very aesthetically pleasing shots.

It does suffer from an uneven pace but overall it is a great indie psychologial thriller.

It constantly kept me engaged, I had this feeling that I was constantly switching sides in terms of resonating with the main characters. Both main actors are great.

It's a light and exciting ride that will keep you wondering.

The twist is not quite what you would expect, even if you're well trained in thrillers.

Acting in this one is quite good and I found the story to be intriguing and believable along with the acting makes this a pretty solid movie.
