Terrified

Actually not just thinking. But you do have to bend your mind to follow this movie. If you want to that is. Because it really is freaky and makes quite a story. The characters don't seem to know where this is going and as a viewer you may feel lost quite a few times.

The horror feels real and might get to you. Especially because it is so hard to grasp. You can't really tell where it will be coming from, where it will be going. Add to that an enhanced sense of dreadness. The photography and sound design is amazing. Having said all that, it still will bore some people. People who like flashy jump scares. This is not ordinary, which may either be considered good or bad. I think movies that take risks are worth watching, especially when they are done so well ...

This is a really enjoyable, strange, low-key horror film from Argentina. Many scenes are filmed in a sickly yellow light, and the horrific prosthetics are often *just* out of focus. When they are dwelt upon, they look truly horrific.

The story, as has been said elsewhere, comes second to the scares - which is acceptable for the most part, because the film *is* scary, both in terms of jump scares and the overriding feeling of unease, which is beautifully conveyed.

The narrative sometimes descends into a tumble, with it being made unclear which moments are being told in flashback, and which characters to invest in. Truth be told though, this might even be deliberate to enhance the delirium.

A terrific film; happily, both a remake and an Argentinean sequel appear to be in the works. My core is 8 out of 10.

TERRIFIED is an inventive, original, and highly effective horror film from Argentina.

A paranormal investigator (Elvira Onetto) and a forensics expert (Norberto Gonzalo) work together with the rest of their assembled team to solve a bizarre mystery. It seems that a neighborhood has become the epicenter for supernatural phenomena. The team must split up, in order to uncover what has happened in three separate homes. As the evening progresses, the terror increases, culminating in a nightmare of ghoulish death.

If you enjoy disturbing, unpredictable stories of the paranormal variety, then this should satisfy!...

Ahh, a breath of fresh air! Can you feel it too? You the one about to read some movie info in order to make the best decision: see it or not? Of course you have to see it! Even its name is on point, as it seriously delivers a massive quantity of fear and panic.

I can't go into too many details with this one as I fear i might ruin it for you, so just understand that it is a big step up from your average horror/supernatural, with lovely elements from both worlds, combined into a small gem.

Aterrados is proof that Latin countries are starting to develop better horror than our casual Hollywood productions, because if you put this next to Silent House (Uruguay) and a big list of Mexico and Spanish movies, well, the future looks bright and world wide.

Cheers!

This Argentinian addition to the horror genre is a refreshing submission from a fledgling director. Written and directed without the usual hubris that we as humans can solve any supernatural problem by basically willing it away and shot in a way which evokes a feeling of being lost from the beginning. Told in a non-linear format with the vantage point being that of multiple characters, each with their own observations and fears keeping the movie fresh through it relatively short run time.

With a few masterfully and patiently created scares blended seamlessly into a engrossing and thoughtful plot this film is a welcome addition to the currently bland horror movie genre.
