There's an atmosphere in Victor Salva's movies that I enjoy. It' a sense of unease which he instills in the audience, a growing sense of menace and horror. And, unlike some of his fellow horror directors, he doesn't build the audience up and then let them down. He delivers and his films grip you to the very end.
Is this movie Creeper 3? The continual mention of 23 would certainly indicate that Nick's father is the creature from the first 2 movies but there's a lot of mythology in this one that wasn't present in the others so I'm still not completely sure. I do hope Salva makes a sequel to this one. The guy gets better and better as a director.
I mark it 7 out of 10, the same score I gave the first 2. (I'm very conservative in my scoring, reserving higher marks for the real classics of cinema.) Good movie. Highly recommended.
