Review:
The Reckoning is by far one of my favorite horror film from any festival I’ve covered this year and I’ve covered Fantasia! That should tell you something of how great this southern horror tale is beyond exquisite. The acting is so powerful it can bring you to tears which is so hard for a horror film to do but this is much more about your typical horror film. Danielle Deadwyler deserves a damn Oscar! There’s not enough you can say about her electrifying performance. The pacing of the film is excellent so fast paced and tight moving the story perfectly. There’s something to this small film that makes it feel like 90 minute long version of Midsommar it’s just that well made. This is one movie that will blow you away.
5/5
