Heathens

About This Movie

Heathens (2021) presents a wild, chaotic take on the horror genre. The atmosphere is heavy with a sense of urgency as this group of heathens scrambles to secure their human sacrifice before the school bell interrupts their dark plans. There’s something raw and gritty about the pacing, as it plays out almost like a real-time thriller. The practical effects have a certain charm, a reminder of the days before over-reliance on CGI. The performances are appropriately over-the-top, adding to the overall disarray of the plot. It’s that off-kilter blend of dark humor and horror that makes it distinct. Not your typical slasher, but it definitely has its own flavor worth discussing.

Has a unique premise that stands out in horror.Practical effects give it a nostalgic feel.The pacing keeps you on edge throughout.
