Of course, the idea of ​​a horror film with a twisted perspective is not entirely new. We’ve seen this in a similar way in Halloween – The Night of Horror or Behind the Mask. But that’s not the only unusual feature of the film. Additionally The Canadian production does not have a soundtrack (via Variety) and is inspired by the peculiarities of so-called slow cinema. The bloodshed will probably be correspondingly slow.

That’s what the horror hit In a Violent Nature is all about

In In a Violent Nature, a speechless, zombie-like killer wearing a disturbing mask stalks a group of teenagers through the Ontario woods. According to The Canadian Press, screenwriter and director Nash cited Gus van Sant’s Death trilogy, consisting of Gerry, Elephant and Last Days, as the main inspiration for his film, not other slasher films.

But this atmospheric and thoughtful approach doesn’t seem to be entirely wrong, because after almost 30 professional reviews the film has one an impressive 93 percent rating on Rotten Tomatoes.

The cast includes Lauren-Marie Taylor, known from Friday the 13th Part 2, as well as Ry Barrett, Charlotte Creaghan and Timothy Paul McCarthy.
