Verdict on Satranic Panic
Satranic Panic is a horror thriller following two friends who go in search of the demons who killed their friend. However, they find themselves dealing with a host of demons who have been hunting people from their community.
Alice’s latest movie takes us on a demon-fighting adventure. It has a much more on-the-nose fightback than the previous work, but it has always been a staple of the projects. This goes in a different direction than you would expect and is filled with pop-culture references to keep it feeling more easier to watch. It has a horror element which has a stronger message than many mainstream movies, one that tackles a real problem a community faces.
Final Thoughts – Satranic Panic is a fun horror with an important message.
