When a group of teens takes a locket from a collapsed fire tower in the woods, they unwittingly resurrect the rotting corpse of Johnny, a vengeful spirit spurred on by a horrific 60-year-old crime.
For all of you sickos out there who love bloody slashers, I have found your latest obsession, In a Violent Nature. Here we follow Johnny (Ryan Barrett) as he goes on a violent rampage in the remote Appalachian wilderness. Even though this movie doesn’t bring anything new to the genre outside of its 3rd person cinematography, it is a fun ride that will make you cheer and squirm.
The kills are brutal, creative, and in some cases funny. These brutal killings are shown through dramatic long takes that will keep you on the edge of your in anticipation. My theater was cheering and moaning during each of these diabolical kills. Because of this theater experience, I had a fun time with this movie. However, if your theater is dead silent or is not vibing with the movie, I have a feeling that you will most likely not enjoy it. In a Violent Nature is definitely a movie that is dependent on your theater experience. So if you decide to go see it this weekend, please make sure to bring your most squeamish friend. If you don’t like the movie then at least you will have the memory of their reaction, even though your friendship might be over.
My Rating: B-
