That was an excellent one.
The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.
It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.
The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.
Watched it last night and just loved it...Well done. I felt that the movie was reminiscent of the works of Alexandre Aja. The gratuitous blood and gore of most movies of today was replaced by suspense and off camera incidence and handled very well. As an avid movie watcher I can usually catch the direction a story is going in by at least 1/3 the way in. Not so with this one. Where most stories have a twist at the end, I found this ending to be more of a corkscrew. The photography is excellent and the production design looks remarkable. Good acting by all the actors involved (bret roberts,gabriella wright). This is, in my opinion, a must see for even the average movie watcher. Nothing is as it seems... A great experience of madness with a good final twistA well made indie movie. I had not heard of it
A married man and woman visit a cabin in the woods (!) apparently about halfway between the US, Europe, and Australia (!) without cell phone reception (!) to recover from the woman's recent stillbirth (!). They talk slowly for about forty-five minutes. Then the man gets out some handcuffs and gets all torturey and rapey.OR DOES HE?!?!? Cymbal crash.Horror film-makers have faced accusations of misogyny for decades, accusations that are sometimes poorly justified, and they have generally acted very reasonably in response. The makers of The Perfect Husband have taken a different tack, reading feminist criticism of horror as a recipe for the perfect cake. Take two cups of a beautiful woman, a tablespoon of ridiculous bitchiness, torture and rape until golden brown. Then turn it upside down and glaze.That alone isn't going to turn off some viewers. Horror is supposed to be unpalatable, and we fans can deal with some ugliness if the underlying movie is good. But TPH isn't. The characters alternate between being unlikable because they're fake and unlikable because they're assholes. The first act drags on for far too long, and the only role it seems to play is making the film long enough for release. If the film wasn't already too cliché, there's a nice scene with a vision of a dead, bloody baby bleeding from its eyes so you know exactly what kind of film you've sat yourself in front of. And to top it off, there's a TWIST (!) that will have you longing to sit though an all-night marathon of Shyamalan's worst.So why 3/10? The acting is occasionally serviceable, and where it's not, I'm willing to give the benefit of the doubt to the cast-- they didn't have a lot to work with. And the filming itself is talented, the shots occasionally beautiful and well orchestrated.But the film itself doesn't really have anything to say. It's just a poorly paced setup for some underwhelming gore. If you have deep issues with your exes and need some fantasy material, hopefully TPH is the catharsis you need to avoid doing anything awful. Otherwise, stay away.
What goes on in a deranged mind? I don't know and I guess that no one without a deranged mind would either. Having that said I just declared myself sane, which might or might not be a lie In either case, we get to follow a couple with a broken background when they try to find peace with each other and themselves during a country trip.It's obvious that neither of them feels very well. The reason is obvious if you keep your eyes open. And even if you don't you'll get the message later on. They have lost a child, a new born child. We get glimpses of a birth and a stillborn child. Nothing can be more horrifying in this world than to give birth to a non-breathing baby. This couple quickly gets my deepest sympathy.It's kind of a low paced story, almost too low paced at times but it does get really bloody and violent as it goes along. It's really terrifying what a broken couple might do to each other in the moment of their worst anxiety. We aren't spared any of it either. There's a lot of violence that almost makes me want to turn my head away. That's very unusual but there are a couple of things I feel very uncomfortable seeing. I can't stand mutilation of hands and eyes for example.It's also pretty well acted which is a great asset when it comes to suspense. It's a pretty exciting movie actually. It's terrifying and suspenseful at the same time. It's rather unusual I think, that a film as bloody as this one also manages to keep the audience in such suspense. As I watch it I'm curious on what s going to happen, and who is going to snap first. I mean really go over the edge. It's obvious that it is going to happen, just not when. And I'm not disappointed at the final breakdown, I can tell you that. There might be one or two twists too many in the story but that's not such a big deal. This is a great movie, no doubt about it!
As a horror film fan, I have wanted to see "The Perfect Husband" for a while, ever since I saw the violent trailer and clips. It does not disappoint in the gory violence department, but I found it to be too short, with an abrupt ending. Still, the film is a haunting exploration of the darkest corners of the human psyche; a portrait that doubles, or maybe masquerades, as a slasher.Gabriella Wright is good in the role of Viola, although her role does not demand much from her, except for a few scenes of considerable emotional range. The final minutes of the movie include an unbelievable twist that is sure to leave the viewer in a state of shock. This Italian film is not a must-see film by any means, but it is a must for art-house and horror film fans.
