"Speak No Evil" is difficult to review without having spoilers, but wow, the subject matter is intensity eerie. This flick is not a comedy, yet the writers still summoned laughter, especially when the two men were listening to a mellow pop song in the car. Brilliant writing by director James Watkins, Christian Tafdrup and Mads Tafdrup. The entire cast portrayed their roles in perfect synch.
One couple is sadistically manipulative and murderous, while the other couple is not. "Speak No Evil" weaves the fabric of harmony into a myriad of too many evils.
The previews, as the movie, did not disappoint, the psychological terrors punched my brain from underneath the skull.
For those seeking instant gratifications to the senses, "Speak No Evil" might disappoint. This movie exposes the darkest recesses of evil's execution. Being forced into a kill or be killed situation is the ultimate buzz kill for any vacation.
The ending and everything in-between weren't predictable, five stars for "Speak No Evil."
Mass murder, kidnapping and grand theft are safe reveals for those still reading and want to see the film.
This movie will be added to my October watch list for the rest of my life.
