Heretic 2024
May I say I was never a fan of Hugh Grant. He has played the same toff character with the floppy hair for decades.
Now he's old and grey and very wrinkled, he's turned his hand to horror films. This one Heretic gets rave reviews but even from the first few minutes I was bored by it. The dialogue is awful, contrived and the acting by the two girls, particularly the fair haired girl just got on my nerves.
So these two Mormon girls visit a weird old guy at his home in the hope of converting him to their religion. After the first five minutes I was so bored. It doesn't take an Eienstein to see where all this is going. A slow - so slow, very talkative load of codswallop. Not scary one bit. Boring, so boring.
I must say one hour was my limit. I didn't care what happened next. This movie sucked. And I don't know why it gets so many great reviews.
I didn't finish it but one hour was too much, I couldn't take any more. I did whiz through to the end and it turned out to be the usual tedious slasher stuff. Still boring.
