REVIEW: Don’t Listen

Don't Listen

Making some noise on Netflix is the 2020 Spanish horror film ‘Don’t Listen’ from director Angel Gomez Hernandez, which is finding some renewed success lately on the streaming platform as of late.

Starring Rodolfo Sanchez, Ana Fernandez, and Ramon Barea, the movie tells the story of – “After a tragic turn of events at the new home he’s fixing up, Daniel hears a ghostly plea for help, spurring him to seek out a famous paranormal expert.”

The supernatural thriller is dubbed brilliantly for English, and it makes the experience watching the film smooth and enjoyable.

A strong plot centered on 9-year old Daniel’s troubling experiences in the home takes a number of surprising twists and turns, and has a number of moments of suspense that are capped off by an appropriate jump scare.

The first kill in the movie sets the tone for what is in store, and the movie moves along at a fluid pace.

The shocking death of Daniel is where the movie takes a number of odd plot directions, and expands the story to implement many of the old-school haunted house elements that were emphasized by great visual and audio connectivity.

Hernandez is stellar at blending horror and tension which makes ‘Don’t Listen’ and enjoyable watch, although it can, at times, be very run of the mill.

Considering it’s currently on Netflix where there are not a lot of solid horror options, it’s worth a watch and a movie that lacks much drag and is minimal on dull moments.
