Review of Stree

Stree (2018)
7/10
Pleasantly surprised
2 April 2019
I watched this movie solely for its "Naale baa" reference because I grew up in that time and place where this urban legend unfolded. I remember scribbling with a chalk on my door every day to ward away the evil woman who was going to come knocking. It was partly comical and a partly scary time. This movie manages to capture that emotion accurately. The night scenes are unsettling and so are the scenes between the hero and the strange unnamed woman. The scenes of the stree are genuinely scary with very minimal use of CGI. The locations are brilliant and provide the rustic small-town backdrop that the movie needs. It is totally worth a watch.
