Why it’s HorroRated
Creep is a film built entirely on Mark Duplass playing one note and sustaining it for eighty minutes with enough variation to keep you perpetually uncertain. The format is as lean as horror gets: two people, a camera, an accumulating sense of wrongness. Patrick Brice's direction trusts the performance completely. One of the decade's best horror films.
Synopsis
Aaron spends two days with Josef who wants his personal evolution captured on video. Mark Duplass plays Josef with a quality that keeps the audience uncertain of his intentions throughout the film's first half. Patrick Brice's film operates through sustained discomfort rather than conventional horror mechanics. One of the decade's best horror films.
