A review of a horror movie that is made all the more disturbing by the lack of blood and guts.
Never Let Me Go, a low budget British film reviewed here is a quiet, unthreatening sort of movie on the surface but the underlying horror of the dystopian vision depicted in the story of three pupils at a rather old fashioned English boarding school is all the more scary for the stillness and and genteel good manners.
When the ultimate fate of the trio and their fellow pupils is revealed it is all the more shocking for the knowledge that they young people are so calm and so unquestioning even though they are aware of what lies ahead.
And still more shocking when one recalls that scientists and doctors are very close to making this vision real.
Grab those side-irons, saddle up and join former Civil War sharpshooter Luther Henry for a ride into pure terror, western-style…think ‘Wild Wild West’ meets ‘The X-Files’.
The fortunate inherit riches, prestige, positive notoriety. Those not so lucky bear legacies filled with poverty, infamy or, worse yet, the unhinged insanity and murderous urges of their ancestors.
Pray for the light. Pray that you last that long. The Long Hour Before Light is a classic collection of Horror tales, re-mastered by Champagne Book Group
