Rating: 3.5 out of 5.

Hello film fans, Slick Dungeon here! I’ve got a great movie to recommend to all of you horror fans. This will be very light on spoilers because it’s the kind of film that is way more effective if you don’t know the premise going in.

Blood Red Sky is a 2021 British-German action horror film. It starts off with a tense plane landing in a heavily armed Scottish air base. The movie then goes back in time to explain what happened on the flight. Giving much more away will spoil too much here. I don’t even recommend reading the description on Netflix if you want to fully enjoy the film.

From start to finish the movie is intense and the pressure just keeps building. What seems like a simple hijacking evolves into something full of intense horror as things take a surprising turn.

If you are the type of viewer who is averse to blood and gore, this one is probably not for you. However, it’s not nearly the bloodiest thing I’ve seen on film.

There are a few key characters we come to care about on the flight and the film is well acted. The cinematography may not be anything special but it gets the job done. There are definitely some scares in here but overall the film finds its best moments of fear by ratcheting up the intensity over and over again.

Knowing the basic premise will lower the effect of what happens here so I’m not going to go into much more. But I can say, if you are a horror film fan, and you like fast paced intense thrillers, and don’t mind a fair amount of gore, this one is worth watching.

Horrifically yours,

Slick Dungeon
