You might think you've seen it all before, but 'The Twin' thrives in upending expectations to deliver an atmospheric folk horror that's as emotional as it is terrifying. Read full review

The convergence of the story of a bereaved mother with a cult-like presence in the new country she calls home does not blend as effortlessly as one would like. The third act proves it cannot. Despite this, however, The Twin makes for a fairly constructive horror that is worth a watch. Read full review

The Twin builds mysterious dread rooted in paranormal possessions and possible cult activity, but its ill-serving payoff vaporizes the crippling weight of loss fastened to each character. Read full review

Generally speaking, the best kinds of story surprises illuminate the material; the worst simply laugh at you for falling for red herrings. Much of what happens in The Twin bounces back and forth between those ends of the spectrum. Read full review

The Twin wastes its desolate location, talented cast, and strong opening in a meandering story that hinges on a last act reveal that doesn’t pay off. Read full review

The Twin just treads water with B-movie style until it gets to the deep ending. And that’s where the whole thing drowns in its lack of ambition and execution. Read full review

O plot final é até interessante, mas o desenvolvimento até esse final é bem tedioso. O "terror" do filme é só na base de jump scare manjado. Passei a maior parte do tempo rindo.

Predictable to the very last drop. And that's regardless of whether you've seen a lot of films.

That's another big problem within the horror genre. Good ideas are in short supply and it's very easy to see where this story is taking its inspiration from, and without paying close attention,Predictable to the very last drop. And that's regardless of whether you've seen a lot of films.

That's another big problem within the horror genre. Good ideas are in short supply and it's very easy to see where this story is taking its inspiration from, and without paying close attention, it's easy enough to see its twist, and worse, how little it can offer in the way of entertainment and horror. A very bad bet.… Expand
