Antebellum (2020)
6/10
This Movie is Extremely
5 December 2020
Things you should know:

1. This movie will critique the hell out of the Confederacy, "history" lovers. If that offends you, this is not the movie for you. The Antebellum era was not glamorous. Black people were treated horribly. Deal with that fact or deny history.

2. This movie is extremely unsettling, but not in the way you think. Without giving too much away, this movie relies on situational horror. In other words, it's not your Friday the 13th styled film.

3. This movie will test your patience. And I believe the movie could've been condensed by 30 minutes or so.

4. Some of the acting is a little, well, weird. The southern accents are just bad. I have a theory as to why, but I'll just leave that be.

5. Again, the movie takes too long to put things together. It's a slow burn for no good reason at all.

6. The twist is good. It's good because it doesn't come from nowhere. There are many hints to it in the beginning.

7. The cinematography is really, really good.

6/10. Could've been better. Honest opinion.
