The Unholy (2021)
4/10
Insult to Herbert TBH
8 June 2021
Usual CGI-fest and lame jump scares and really dumbed down for today's audiences. Some major characters missing and one important plot point too. And the twist reveal (last quarter of the book) was waaaaay to early. Alice has gone from 9 to 18 to attract teen boys presumably :D

James Herbert is a horror legend and is my main inspiration for my own writing (under a pen name) so to me this is like pissing on his grave.

If you haven't read the book - 6/10 - if you have 3/10. At least they kept most of the character names. Read the book instead.
