I was stoked for The Wretched as it was one of the first mainstream movies released straight to VOD after a month of pandemic lockdown. It started great ... the usual horror-movie prologue was gripping and disturbing. The story was intriguingI was stoked for The Wretched as it was one of the first mainstream movies released straight to VOD after a month of pandemic lockdown. It started great ... the usual horror-movie prologue was gripping and disturbing. The story was intriguing and mildly original with a "Rear Window" sub-plot that works well. And the creature effects were outstanding. Unfortunately, the lead protagonist was dull and annoyingly selfish to the point that it dragged most of the movie down with him, redemption arc notwithstanding. Expand

Wretched is a well shot, well edited horror of the 'demonic possession meets evil witch' variety. Sadly in such an over saturated genre there is little new ground here but if you're in the mood it serves up a decent ride.

If this were a skinwalker movie that kills and eats people and at max can mimic voices, I’d love it more. The whole illusion tree & forgetfulness powers made no sense to this movie. Opening scene was not needed & the two twists at the endIf this were a skinwalker movie that kills and eats people and at max can mimic voices, I’d love it more. The whole illusion tree & forgetfulness powers made no sense to this movie. Opening scene was not needed & the two twists at the end were very unnecessary and I wished didn’t happen. It’s shot great, has lovable characters & has great makeup design. It’s just The Wretched powers that make no sense and I felt this movie did too much. Expand
