The fact that I had never heard about the 2018 horror movie "Discarnate" hardly mattered in my choice to sit down and watch the movie. It being a horror movie that I hadn't already seen, much less actually heard about, was sufficient enough to make me sit down and give the movie a fair chance.
Writers Mario Miscione and Marcella Ochoa put together a fair enough script, but I have to admit that for a horror movie then it just wasn't particularly outstanding. Sure, it was a watchable and enjoyable enough movie, but it just failed to stand out among so many other horror movies.
There were a couple of familiar faces on the cast list, such as Thomas Kretschmann, Nadine Velazquez and Josh Stewart. I will say that the acting performances in the movie were definitely good.
The effects in "Discarnate" were good, and that definitely added something to the overall enjoyment of the movie.
Watchable, sure, but ultimately it was a generic and forgettable horror experience. The movie's cover, however, was far more interesting than what the movie turned out to be.
My rating of director Mario Sorrenti's 2018 horror movie "Discarnate" lands on a bland five out of ten stars.
