Cuckoo, the new horror movie, is filled with creepy mysteries, eerie settings, and super creepy creatures.
We've got Hunter Schafer starring in this film as Gretchen. She heads to the German Alps with her dad, stepmom, and sister - just when her mom dies. But, get this - they’re stuck in a time loop because these crazy, creepy creatures.
That's the real mystery! They sort of look like humans, and they seem to have some cool powers - like making crazy sounds that make people's ears ring, but they aren't totally humans. Cuckoo leaves us wanting more info!
You might think the whole time-loop thing is predictable but "Cuckoo" makes things interesting by creating some totally awesome visual effects and keeping the atmosphere creepy and thrilling! Dan Stevens, a real standout in the Cuckoo cast plays König, a super wealthy dude who is conducting experiments and working to preserve these super creepy creatures! We're not even sure if he's a bad guy or just an obsessive scientist.
In a twist of fate - Gretchen and her step-sister escape this terrifying town. It's super wild, but it doesn’t fully explain a lot of what went down. For example, Gretchen's sister Alma is one of those creatures - super intense stuff! It is also unclear if she'll control her powers - it looks like Gretchen could help. All this leads to those unanswered questions we are still thinking about!
It's worth a watch for those who are into those dark, psychological horror movies! The movie makes you want to talk about it. That's exactly how you know a movie is good!
