Claw (2017)

Claw: Directed by David Palmieri. With Justin Pavia, Tina Krause, Lina Tanille, Anthony Edward Curry. Three friends decide to get out of the city for a weekend break, only to find out that the sleepy up-state town of Swamp Hollow is really the hunting ground of serial killers.

“Badly paced and exceedingly boring, u0026quot;Clawu0026quot; certainly didnu0026#39;t grab my attention. It feels like a student film, with amateurish cinematography, flat and emotionless acting, clumsy dialogue, and a plot which fails to go anywhere interesting. While the three protagonists are supposed to be friends, their incessant arguing and abrasive personalities just highlights that they were thrown together randomly by a seemingly inexperienced scriptwriter, rather than being fully realised characters the viewer could care about. Worse, thereu0026#39;s no tension, suspense, credible mystery, or even decent b-grade horror movie gore to make up for the rest of the filmu0026#39;s weaknesses. Avoid : thereu0026#39;s better things to waste your time on.”
