Don't Breathe

What do I need to do to get Fede Álvarez back with his muse Jane Levy to make magic like this and Evil Dead again?? WHAT'S IT GOING TO TAKE?!! She's the best part of this movie, no doubt. Her face acting is so good, especially in the moment when things really go tits up and you can tell she's realizing how much things have escalated and how badly they're all fucked. That moment alone, when she's able to convey all of that without making a single sound, is better than every other performance in this movie. I hate to admit it though, this movie didn't really work as well for me on the rewatch as it did the first time I saw it. It's one of those movies where once you know the twist (and it's a hell of a twist) I feel like it just doesn't pack quite the same punch. It's still a crazy movie though, filled with ass-clenching levels of intensity. And it's a tight little hour and a half that fucking MOVES and ends in a satisfying way, so I really can't complain.
