Rabbit Trap (2025) Scary Movies 13

The studio asked for an abbreviated review to run for Scary Movies. A longer one will run for its release in September 

In the 1970's a couple move into the Welsh countryside. As she records her new album and he records ambient sound they are visited by an odd teen boy  looking to become friends.

One of the great opening halves of any film this year, takes some unexpected turns in the second half in a film that reveals itself to be something other than a (folk) horror film. I was not expecting for where this film went or to have it reveal itself to be something more. If you want to see why horror is used to do more than scare, Rabbit Trap will clue you in.

This is a super film for those who want chills and feelings beyond jump scares.

Go see it.
