Não Abras

Geralmente um filme de terror normal e rotineiro sobre uma estudante do ensino médio que acidentalmente libera um demônio que causa problemas (e sequestra / mata os seus amigos). O filme aborda o tema da inclusão de minorias na sociedade, agrada com alguns efeitos práticos e destaca-se levemente do comum ao enfatizar a mitologia indiana e as tradições culturais, o que também é a única coisa que parece original nele.

This new demonic horror film had potential thanks to the unconventional Indian Lore, but it holds back too much and is unfortunately boring. It's a good thing the film was released a month before it's due to arrive in our cinemas, because I'd probably regret the money and the trailer looked rather creepy. You can say that it is a demonic teen standard that doesn't offend or impress, but since there is no gore, for me it is a useless variation of something we’ve seen a hundred times without any innovative addition and with minimal audience engagement. The story is classic, it picks up at a slower pace, but what could be praised a bit is the likeable and lovable protagonist, the addition of Indian culture and traditions, and the nice look of the demon, which they show only at the end though, and I didn't really buy the fight. If it had been R-rated, I believe it could have been more interesting (the few deaths could have had potential), but with the PG-13 rating it all comes off kind of pointless. Disappointing for me, there are worse things, but I could have done without it. 4/10. (17/10/2023)

A mediocre horror film about a monster that terrorizes a young girl invisibly. The only thing that sets It Lives Inside apart from the competition is its setting among immigrants from India and its use of their traditions and mythology. Otherwise, it is a routine horror film that surprises neither in plot nor in execution. (27/10/2023)
