Shiver (2008, SPA) C-95m. **½ D: Isidro Ortiz. Starring Junio Valverde, Blanca Suárez, Jimmy Barnatán, Mar Sodupe, Francesc Orella. A teenager (Valverde) with a rare allergy to sunlight moves with his mother into a mountain village. Once there he is confronted with a murderous beast in the woods. And the townspeople don't seem to like strangers very much... Fairly suspenseful and well-made, but plot is second-rate and turns into a BLAIR WITCH PROJECT meets [REC] type of film. Valverde has a great way of looking terrified, but even that wears thin. Also known as ESKALOFRIO. |
