There are a number of twists and turns that constantly keep you engaged and wanting to watch on. From experience, some horror films can bore you to sleep with the constant complications - but with The Pact it's done perfectly (without telling you any spoilers!
The use of 21st century technology such as iPhones, online maps etc aren't usually used in horror films but The Pact embraces it and they're subtly entwined into the narrative. It made me think twice about using my Maps app afterwards and shows how the horror genre is evolving.
Everything from the family issues to the household mysteries to the examination of old pictures give The Pact a traditional horror feel but it's the successful implementation of new horror conventions that finally brings the horror genre into the 21st century.
The Pact is a great watch and I truly recommend it to any horror fan and actually to anyone who just wants to watch a good, scary film! There are some nail-biting scenes I somehow forgot to mention!
