Given the opportunity to sit down and watch the 2022 Thai horror/thriller "Cracked", of course I did exactly that, as I do enjoy Asian horror cinema. Reviewed by paul_haakonsen 5 / 10 Generic storyline, but watchable enough for what it was. It's not so bad as to be unwatchable, but it's definitely not memorable. Good production values, but Cracked feels too engineered, too sanitized- it feels like a Chinese horror movie. The child acting is poor, even filtered through subtitles. The most likable thing about the protagonist is that she's a single mother who loves her daughter. There are some jump scares, there's some "oh whew that scary scene was just a nightmare," that kind of stuff, just to fill the time.īut the story barely gets developed until the third act, and then it's developed poorly, trying to have its cake and eat it too.Ĭharacterization is likewise blank-slate bland. In the beginning, we get some slow (but not unengaging) creep. There's not any more to be said about the plot than that. Here, it's less a haunted house than some haunted paintings, but it's the same thing. Reviewed by vasiln 5 / 10 Paint-by-numbers Asian horrorĬracked is a Thai haunted house movie.
