This movie was the first I've seen in a while where I truly had no idea where it was going next. I went in blind and I'd recommend the same because it's a wild ride. It has gore, depravity, and heart. The characters have depth and are very well constructed. I would absolutely recommend this to anyone who likes horror and/or psychological thrillers because it's definitely a combination of both.

Kill List is a really creepy and uncomfortable film. Wheatley unflinchingly shows us bleak and souless parts of Britain and the horror really comes from the realism and not knowing where the film might go next and what you might see. The 2 leads are excellent, coming off as vulnerable even though they are both powerful and deadly forces in their own right. There are many comparisons to be made to other movies but all would spoil it so I would say Kill List is best watched with no prior knowledge or expectation.

Really the acting is superb - the dialogue realistic and it genuinely feels fresh.I don't really think there is a downside to this movie outside of your own expectations.It could have been 'more jarring' but the banality has its own specific charm.I loved it.
