O Fascínio

The Binding is a new Italian horror that was realesed in this days and i must say that it wasnt a total disaster,film had some good acting performances and some use of visual aspects and creepy imagery was done in a solid way,but that is where a good staff stops to me,and predictable and lame ones begin.Story was seen in a thousends of similiar films and i havent seen nothing new to impress me,scares were also very uneffective and they didnt have a impact on me,ending was little cliched and it felt like all the same.Honestly i wish that Italia gets another horror maestro like Argento was ,so we can again enjoy good horrors again from their side

An Italian terror attempt. It is about a man who takes his girlfriend to his mother's house and his daughter begins to suffer strange situations from his presence. Totally parsimonious, the first hour nothing happens. The last half hour is the one that develops everything. Predictable like all of its kind. Quality. Performances at the level but nothing relevant. The effects are fine, one that another is not fully achieved. Talk about tie downs. The ending is very simple and nothing spectacular. It remains owing. Try to give suspense with hackneyed moments and situations.

The movie is nicely set in rural Italy which lends to a lovely supernatural folky aesthetic. The storyline, while not being particularly original or unique, maintains an air of intrigue and unpredictability. The acting of the older family members is fantastic and a little creepy (good thing!) I wouldn't pay to watch it but is good option for a autumnal night in cuddled on the sofa.

And so should you if supernatural horror your thing but no actual thrilled scares or even jump scares more story driven

I'm a bit of a sucker for low budget horror movies ... if they are done and played well. I might have given this a point or two more than some may feel this deserves. Yes we have cliches and yes this is quite predictable. Still it is a horror movie that works (all the bad character choices included) ... very well made and acted.

Suspend your disbelief and enjoy the ride. Effects are decent and story is ok too. It will not reinvent the wheel, it will also probably not make your top 10 list, but that does not make this a bad movie. Of course it may not be your taste ... there is no accounting for that.
