Bag of Lies

About This Movie

So, 'Bag of Lies'—it really dives into the dark side of desperation. Matt is a guy you can’t help but feel for, and the weight of his choices hangs heavy throughout. The atmosphere is thick with dread, almost suffocating at times, which really plays into the horror elements. The pacing builds nicely, slowly peeling back layers of the ritual and the rules tied to The Bag. It's a bit disorienting, reflecting Matt’s unraveling sanity. Practical effects are well done, giving a real tactile quality to some of the more unsettling scenes. The performances, especially from the leads, blend vulnerability and madness, making it all the more haunting. Definitely a noteworthy entry in modern horror, for sure.
