Voice of Shadows

A criticism that may well come up for horror fans is that bar one or two jumps, it’s not actually all that scary. Instead, there is more of a melancholic weirdness, which, to my mind, works pretty well given the subject matter.

Voice of Shadows was fun to watch and well made, but there’s just not a lot of meat on these bones. It’s not a particularly original story, and, while it’s well made for a low budget affair, I would call it fun, or scary, or thought provoking.

Gothic horror can be deliberately stalling for story advancement, setting up the stage for a real gruesome climax. This was not the case in Voice of Shadows. The disappointing and long-winded conversations culminated to a less than thrilling finale.

"Voice of Shadows" weaves a haunting tapestry of faith and fear, delivering atmospheric chills that captivate even with a lackluster story.
