Review of Cyst

Cyst (2020)
6/10
Really needs a "comedy" tag.
7 October 2021
I started watching this fully expecting low-budget indie-horror. I like these movies; even if the production doesn't match up to the ambition, you can often still appreciate what they were aiming for.

I went into this film expecting a low-budget sci-fi body-horror, because that's what every official description had led me to belive this was. In actual fact, this is a gory comedy-horror.

And, when you view it in that light, it works well. It's ridiculous and over-the-top, and features more than its fair share of gore and pus.

It's just a shame that it's not promoted honestly. It would actually find its audience more easily if it was tagged as "comedy", but the creators have chosen not to do this.

It's a really enjoyable film, but because of how it is presented online, it may not be what you expect.
