The Wretched (2020)

I’m not sure was it the buzz going around before the release or what, but right off the bat I can say that, among other emotions, I’m also pretty disappointed. “The Wretched” is a reasonably well made horror movie, has all the typical makings of one – including a story that’s pretty much put together of multiple familiarities, portions of “Fright Night”, “The Witch”, “Rear Window” (or “Disturbia”, if You will), plus some body horror, and a kind of 80’s feeling that seems to have stayed more of a goal than an achievement. Overall, “The Wretched” comes across as… fundamentally basic. This page has the wretched 2020, watch online, the wretched 2020 free download, full movie hd.
 

There’s a story, and it flows evenly, it entertains, accompanied by a romp of characters, decent gore and cinematography. The problem is, it does so on a surface kind of level. The Pierce brothers utilize a wide selection of familiar tropes, ordinary devices and old tricks, perhaps trying to weave together something new, but ending up just uninspired.

The plot follows a teenage boy who’s struggling with his parents divorce, and has come to spend some time with the father, but life gets complicated when he notices something weird going on in the neighbor’s house. An old, evil witch has come out the forest to mess around. Everything that can happen, will happen, love interest, conflicts with town bullies, conflicts with father and his new girlfriend, and other plotlines go where one would expect to as well. 

The characters are not the best ones to get behind for, and the evil presented lacks real dread and character Overall there’s just no real delving in the psychology of what’s happening, fear or mystery. However, everything works, but on a basic level, a kind of a flat line. Performances were okay all around, but some of the characters were given very little to work with. John-Paul Howard as the central hero Ben makes for an okay protagonist, though Ben’s got nothing on Charley Brewster.

 Cinematography and editing can prompt as much critique, though on the background of all that’s aforementioned, the visual side of things provided some comfort. Always extra appreciation for good practical effects, gore and such. Lastly, the original score, was, guess what, mostly as uninspiring as the rest.

I believe “The Wretched” is perhaps a better horror movie than I’ve described, but, personally, I find the best words for it are “fundamentally basic”, which is why I’m recommending this to those less familiar or accustomed to the horror genre.
