Hacksaw (2020) is one of those films that captures that gritty, unsettling vibe of rural horror. The setup is classic: a young couple's road trip gone awry, with the backdrop of urban legend creeping into reality. The pacing builds tension skillfully, really giving you that dread as they venture into the past of Ed 'Hacksaw' Crowe. The practical effects are worth mentioning; they lean into the visceral aspects rather than relying solely on digital trickery, which adds to the grounded terror. The performances feel natural, not overplayed, which makes the unfolding horror all the more relatable. It’s the kind of flick that lingers with you and keeps that unsettling feeling alive long after the credits roll.
