Don't Text Back

About This Movie

So, 'Don't Text Back' is this quirky blend of comedy and horror, right? It has this offbeat vibe where the protagonist is literally choked by her own indecision—quite a unique take on the whole dating scene. The pacing is a bit erratic at times, but it adds to the chaotic energy. The practical effects are surprisingly well-done, especially for a low-budget indie; that cursed necklace really stands out. Performances are a mixed bag, with some actors bringing a lot of charm while others just kind of float along. The whole thing plays with modern dating anxieties in a way that’s both funny and dark. It’s a niche film, but there’s definitely something intriguing about its approach to the horror-comedy genre.
