Christopher Abbott in Possessor (2020)

Review by popovic_vlada

Possessor

8/10

The spirit of David Cronenberg lives!

Ok, i don't usually write reviews here, although I am an avid movie fanatic.

To be frank i wasn't familiar with Brandon Cronenberg and his work up until now, and I must say this is a treat for the fans of his Dad's work.

The beginning is kind of meh I admit and nothing special but from the mid point towards the end it keeps getting better and better and the main thing is the beautiful atmosphere and cinematography and visuals and practical effects in the style of 80s masterpieces of his famous father.

This is by far the most interesting movie in this "subgenre" of horror in years and maybe even from the 80s/90s and since David shifted more towards the "mainstream" if that is something you can ever say about David Cronenberg.

Also the acting is great as is the casting. The colors and the mood of the film are really on point. Shot out to Director of photography.

To top it all of the "ending theme" or "possessor" as it is credited in the soundtrack by Jim Williams is nothing short of a masterpiece.

If you loved David Cronenberg's "Videodrome" or "The Scanners" or even "Dead Ringers" you will surely appreciate this one..

Do not be thrown away by the bad reviews and take a look for yourself!
