Review of Realms

Realms (I) (2017)
6/10
Solid Horror with twists but no real surprises.
28 October 2019
Realms: Two Psychotic Americans rob a bank in Bangkok and take two women hostage along with the Uber driver they had booked to be their getaway driver. After a high speed chase/gun-battle the car crashes and the crooks herd the hostages into a forest. They come across a deserted mansion and decide to stay for the night. Things then become strange. The U.S. duo remind me of Mickey and Mallory in Natural Born Killers, crazed and sadistic. The building seems both derelict and in good order, figures are seen running, the robbers and the hostages get flashes of past events when they touch objects. Attempting to escape the captives end up back at the house. Events which occurred at the house in the 1920s/30s come in a vision and are reminiscent of The Shining. Solid horror, some twists but no real surprises. Directed by Daric Gates (The Appearing) from a script by Kevin Summerfield. 6/10.
