Why it’s HorroRated

In the Tall Grass has a clean central idea: a field that rearranges space and time to trap anyone who enters. Natali executes the concept with patience and the disorientation is maintained throughout. The philosophical dimension of what the field wants is more interesting than the film fully develops but it's worth the time.

Synopsis

Vincenzo Natali adapts King and Hill's novella with confidence in the setting's inherent horror. The tall grass functions as a maze that actively works against orientation and the film uses that formally. The philosophical dimension of what the field wants is more interesting than the film fully develops.
