The Shout (1978)

A Wonderful Horror-Thriller


This film may not be everyone's style of horror but it is my style of horror-thriller. It's not a typical story - quite different than most all horror-thrillers I have ever seen.

This movie moves along a steady pace as Crossley (Alan Bates) tells Graves (Tim Curry) the story of how he moved himself into the home and the life of a married couple. Crossley tells the story of how he is not an average person, he is fluent in aboriginal magic and works his magic to get what he wants. Crossley also claims to have learned the killer aboriginal "Shout". Is all this true or is Crossley just a patient and not a visitor at the psychiatric hospital? Watch the film to find out.

Yes this movie is GOOD - I personally think this one would make a great prime time movie to watch. (Some nudity and sexual content - so if you have young children you might want to wait until they are in bed to watch the film).

8.5/10
