The Night of the Hunter

The film didn't have much tension as I'd hoped at first, but it did pick up in the second act. The heartwarming moments for these kids in the third act were great. When Rachel Cooper pulled out the shotgun, iconic right there.

The night of the Hunter is one of the greatest works of American Cinema to come out of the 1950s. It is beautifully written, and the shots are both stunning and chilling. The use of shadows especially, almost Caligarian in nature really brought everything together. 9/10

Ameeee

this was pretty scary. that guy was terrifying. it was ahead of its time.

Stylistically unique, pure blooded tension and a charismatic yet chilling antagonist, this really was ahead of its time

Vraiment très bien, j’ai passé un super moment, un de mes premiers « vieux films » et l’ambiance est top l’histoire est bien cool mais certain éléments auraient pu être amélioré pour rendre l’ambiance encore plus glauque et pesante.
