steve mookie kong<p>Until Dawn (2025)</p><p>This movie is so boring, I will rename it to: Until Yawn.</p><p>I finished the movie only because I was curious how it would end. Unfortunately, when the movie ended, I had no idea what had happened and why things had happened. I know that Clover (Ella Rubin) is accompanied by her friends to look for her sister who had left a year ago for New York but went missing. There is a Dr. Hill (Peter Stormare) who is running experiments, but why? Have no clue. </p><p>Horror Groundhog Day. The thing that a timeloop movie needs are characters that we care about because we'll be spending so much time with them in short repetitive moments. Unfortunately the characters in Until Dawn are so underdeveloped they are nearly interchangeable. They do have archieypes to help out though: The strong one, the jerk, the one in touch with vibes, that one girl who is just there and the nice guy. With the lack of interesting characters, the audience is left with a series of horror scenes that are disconnected from each other. The producers must have thought as much because there are quite a few loops which were reduced to a montage (most of them actually shown in the same sequence in the trailer for this movie).</p><p>The bit with the drinking water was apparently supposed to both be horrific and a key part of the movie, but it turned out to be more hilarious than horrific -- a lot of that being to the way that it was executed on screen. The Wendegos are meh. The movie is very gory and that was done well.</p><p>The Wall of Rain is actually kind of cool.</p><p>Peter Stormare seems to be having a ball in the film.</p><p>I have never played the game.</p><p>Rated 3 out of 10.</p><p>Streamed on Netflix.</p><p><a href="https://racingbunny.com/tags/movies" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>movies</span></a> <a href="https://racingbunny.com/tags/untildawn" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>untildawn</span></a> <a href="https://racingbunny.com/tags/netflix" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>netflix</span></a> <a href="https://racingbunny.com/tags/playstation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>playstation</span></a> <a href="https://racingbunny.com/tags/horror" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>horror</span></a></p>
