Verdict on Don’t Move

Don’t Move is a horror thriller following a serial killer who takes their latest victim and injects them with a paralytic agent. It gives her 20 minutes to escape before losing all movement in their body. However, the pursuit is much harder than the killer was expecting, as the victim fights to control her body.

This movie brings us a new serial killer with twisted ideas. However, it turns more into a cat-n-mouse chase that the victim must fight through without being able to move. It creates an intense level of tension as we see how everything unfolds, but also shows the killer isn’t as prepared as he believes he is. Granted it is hard to do that much with a victim on the run who can’t move, it’s more about the people they clash with on route to his final destination for her. It ends up becoming a tidy thriller that keeps you on edge throughout.
