And some of the specific scares here, like an invisible force leaving footprints in flour or white powder, have been lifted directly from Paranormal Activity. The “horror movie over online conference call” has been around for more than half a decade, since 2014’s Unfriended. Sure, we’ve seen pretty much all of this before. Not once did director Rob Savage ( Dawn of the Deaf) actually set foot in any of the actors’ homes due to social distancing protocols, and we have to say that considering all those limitations, what they’ve produced actually looks surprisingly competent. This film was truly shoe-strung together by its cast and crew, being filmed entirely by the actors themselves in their own homes. Shudder’s new original film just hit the horror streamer this week, and packs a trailer that is both knowingly derivative but fun in its own especially “DIY” sort of way. Of which I can only assume Host will be a prime example. That means all of the Zoom commercials, the Zoom sketches on SNL, and yes, the Zoom horror movies.
3.When we’re looking back on the age of the coronavirus pandemic a few years from now-hopefully that will actually come to pass-then we’ll surely at some point have to collect all of this era’s “Zoom parody” pieces into a single tome for assessment of how they reflected our anxieties of living through the pandemic. It goes about as well as you might expect and leads to some truly spooky set pieces. Henry’s and set to bring their abomination into the world. And so, they abduct a pregnant patient of Dr. Henry believes that they can inject the soul and essence of their dead grandson into an unborn child. I am not sure I knew what the term “”reverse-exorcism” would mean before watching this movie, but the basic idea is that grandparents Audrey and Dr. Dyck, and written by Keith Cooper, Anything For Jackson tells the story of a couple of grandparents who will go to any length to keep the memory of their deceased grandchild alive, and I mean any. That said, Anything For Jackson is a worthy addition and proves that there is still plenty to get out of exorcisms if you are willing to take a different approach to the genre. I mean, when one of the greatest and most legendary horror movies of all time is literally called The Exorcist, I am not really sure where else you can go.
One of the most popular, and at times exhausted, horror movie subgenres is the exorcism movie.
