Review of Dagr

Dagr (2024)
9/10
I'm impressed
7 April 2024
This film, despite its modest budget and being shot on an iPhone, is remarkably well-executed.

It shines in its detailed character development, engaging the audience deeply with their stories. This focus on character depth is a welcome departure from the usual approach in low-budget found footage films, which often overlook the importance of well-rounded characters.

There are many subtle elements that might be missed at first glance, making a second watch worthwhile.

The film will surely appeal to its target audience, though it may not satisfy those looking for high levels of gore. It's clear that the filmmakers approach the project with a light-hearted attitude, showing a deep respect for the horror genre. Throughout, there are clever, hidden homages to classic horror films and tales, with some more obvious references like Blair Witch, all delivered with a playful, tongue-in-cheek tone. It's this sense of fun that really made the experience enjoyable for me.
