Just yesterday Seventh Moon was screened for the first time in front of an audience and I was just lucky enough to be in that crowd. Being honest, I really expected this to be PG-13 garbage...And I was very wrong.

We start out with the Chinese myth (Which is on the poster). After, we follow Amy Smart and Tim Chiou enjoying their honeymoon during the ghost festival and pissing the locals off with their disrespect for the festival. As night draws near, their tour guide gives them a ride to their honeymoon getaway. In the dead of night, the guide gets lost and goes to find help, but never returns... That's all I will give out because the director really wanted to keep the story on the down-low and I can respect that. From then on, chaos ensues when some very disturbing things come out of the woods for a midnight snack. Once hell breaks loose, it never lets up. Whether it be Amy and Tim hiding from the creepy demons or running for dear life from them. The violent nature of the film will get it an R rating so no worries. It has some gore, but it's mostly very serious and disturbing. Like people realistically getting picked apart. There is also enough language to warrant an R rating (Like 10 F bombs; Most from Amy). The cinematography in this makes the Blair Witch look like it was shot on a tripod, but it really adds to the chaos and they make sure you don't miss anything important. The scares were great and had me jump which RARELY happens and there were some genuinely terrifying and tense moments like Amy walking past tons of demons that aren't moving...yet. Amy and Tim deliver very good and realistic performances. The characters rarely do anything I wouldn't do in their situation which was refreshing for a horror film.

Seventh Moon surprised me and delivered on all levels. If you like to be scared and sit on the edge of your seat, give this a try! 9/10
