Edgefield Road

About This Movie

Edgefield Road offers a unique spin on the ghost hunting genre. The premise is pretty straightforward: a down-and-out team of ghost hunters brings in an influencer to help elevate their profile. But the tone is where it gets interesting. It balances moments of genuine tension with a bit of dark humor, which feels fresh. The pacing is uneven at times, but it contributes to that old-school horror vibe. Practical effects are used sparingly but effectively—there's nothing like the thrill of real shadows and creaks to ramp up the suspense. Performances are solid, with a nice mix of desperation and ambition from the characters. It doesn’t rely heavily on jump scares, focusing instead on atmosphere, which I think is a commendable choice.

Interesting take on social media and ghost hunting.More atmosphere than jump scares, which is refreshing.Practical effects add a layer of authenticity.
