Rerouting

About This Movie

Rerouting is an intriguing entry into the horror genre for 2024, exploring themes of paranoia and systemic injustice. The atmosphere is thick with tension, almost suffocating at times, as our protagonist—the rideshare driver—finds himself caught in a web of sinister conspiracy. Pacing is relentless, keeping you on the edge, almost feeling the weight of his desperation. Practical effects add a gritty realism that heightens the scares without resorting to over-the-top CGI. Performances feel raw, especially from the lead, who captures the essence of a man pushed to his limits. It’s got this unsettling vibe that lingers, and the way it critiques modern-day fears about technology and trust in society makes it distinctively unsettling.
