Review Tuesday: Truth or Dare (2017)

 

 

Truth or Dare

2017

A group of college friends gather for spooky fun and get more than they bargained for. 

I had asked Mrs Bax0jayz to select another movie and she came up with this. She said the trailer looked good and Amazon viewers gave it high marks, so why not? 

 

During the 80s a bunch of college friends rented a house for a party when a game of truth or dare went sideways. All but one died. Fast forward to modern day, and another group of college kids rent the same house hoping for a spooky time. They, too, play truth or dare. Things immediately turn tense, then deadly. Yep. They tripped over the same evil entity that did in that other group. 

 

It's not a bad concept for a movie. It's well-made and all. The trouble is with the character development. What little there is of it is rather repellent and obnoxious. I never really cared that anyone was getting killed. It went from something of a neat idea for a horror film into gore-porn of characters you don't even like. So, I didn't really care for this one nor would I recommend it.
