DAY 30.1: Mara
On Netflix

So to continue my whole thing about "I love when horror movies take something that is real and makes it horrifying", Mara does this perfectly.

Mara is about a criminal psychologist that investigates the murder of a husband and the prime suspect in the case is the wife. When speaking with her daughter, she claims a monster killed him while he slept.

This is an awesome freaking movie. It takes sleep paralysis and uses that idea to perfection, creating a terrifying monster that slowly shambles it's way towards you to murder you. It's never quick. It's always agonizingly long, and it just continues to make this monster a complete terror.

The idea of using sleep paralysis in this way is awesome. The drama that ensues, trying to just stay awake to keep from being murdered by this horrible creature is just super compelling. The movie keeps you on edge as well, letting you think they're awake or asleep or vice versa.

It's a really, really good movie, and the way it takes this terror and keeps you guessing is so good. Huge recommend for Mara!

Rating: 8.5/10
