Fear X

Like revenge you are supposed to feel “unsatisfied” or “unfulfilled”
But that’s exactly how I felt after
Unsatisfied and unfulfilled 
I like Refn, I like Turturro, the story is nice, the soundtrack is good
But I think I ultimately I would actually be satisfied enacting revenge (what that says about me make as you will)
But I feel that me and ultimately the audience was robbed of the mystique and revenge
One could also say this has a uniquely post war feel to it

The story was interesting and it had some moments where it built up good, eerie atmosphere. Doesn't have many highs aside from the ending, and the beginning was a little boring.

Fear X is the worst title I’ve ever seen

Backrooms, 2000s Canada, incessant buzzing, neons, a touch of Paul Blart: Mall Cop, and Benny’s Video-esque surveillance footage—what’s not to like!!??

You can't see anything on those damn tapes. A face right in front of your eyes, the answer on the fringes of your mind, yet you cannot clear the fog to see the truth. Your body becomes a shell of yourself.

"You sure it's worth your life?"

"I wasn't living anyway."

What Refn succeeds most at — injecting mood into every frame of his pictures, drenching you in the dread and atmosphere, like a fist clenching your heart and making you feel every beat. It's great.
