Catch 'The Wailing' ('El llanto') today at the @sydfilmfest.bsky.social. It doesn't make use of cheap jump scares; it succeeds with suspense in the absence of light. We never know if something may be present in the dark corners or hallways. Our #moviereview… swtc.au/thewailing #horror

The Wailing Review: Dying to see a more refined rendition of this horror film | Sydney Film Festival Review | SWITCH.
'The Wailing' stumbles far more than it succeeds. It's a horror film that is outright boring for considerable slabs of time. There doesn't need to be gore, there doesn't need to be terror - but there does need to be something to keep the audience engaged for the duration.
