movie review - Smile

the journal of Michael Werneburg

twenty-eight years and a million words

Kokubunji, 2024.05.06

This is a tense horror movie that lays it on so thick our twelve-year-old (who chose it!) pulled the plug after perhaps half an hour. From what little I saw, I found it a low-budget affair with some ideas but clumsy execution and stiff dialog.

Not recommended.
