The Herp is a raw dive into body horror that really leans into the psychological aspects of fear and transformation. The pacing is deliberately slow at first, drawing you into the unsettling atmosphere, and then it builds to some genuinely jarring moments. The performances, especially by the lead, have a haunting authenticity that makes the horror feel all the more real. It explores themes of identity and the fragility of health but also threads in a certain dread about societal expectations. The practical effects are a standout, managing to create a visceral experience that sticks with you. It's definitely not your typical horror fare, which is what makes it kind of unique in a crowded genre.
