A surprise to be sure but a welcome one. I was starting to doubt this movie after some poor reviews from festival attendees* but hope springs eternal.
*A lot of talk about how boring it is watching a killer walk about the woods for large chunks of the runtime.
Accomplishes the rare feat of balancing genuine fright with gut-busting humor by flipping the slasher genre upside down, primarily focusing on the deranged, unstoppable serial killer in the woods
The best Jason Voorhees movie that had never been made. A bloody and violent slasher with a refreshing new angle and successful execution. Best horror film of the year so far.
Features, without question, the most gruesome on screen slashing of the century. Those reports about audience members vomiting were not exaggerated.
In a Violent Nature is the most thrilling, terrifying, gross and often quite funny reworking of the slasher genre in ages.
In a Violent Nature takes everything we know about slasher flicks and presents it in an intense new way.
In a Violent Nature is a slasher flick we’ve seen before, but innovation in the form of mostly situating the story in the killer’s unstoppable perspective, exceedingly graphic kills, and a slow-burn approach gives it an admirable edge.
Encompasses everything about its slasher inspiration but focuses on the killer's POV, giving us one of the most unique horror films of the year.share
Good to hear positive reviews 👍

The thing I'm pleased about most is that many reviewers are commenting on how gory the movie is.
On the topic of Terrifier 2. That got released in the USA unrated (it wasn't submitted to the MPAA, so it wasn't rated PG-13, R or NC-17). In a Violent Nature is also getting released unrated. So these movies are going a bit beyond the conventional R-rated horror movie, that's for sure. They're not bending the knee to the MPAA.
Good to know. I hope they don't butcher them here in the UK (we normally do okay as regards censorship of horror films).
