So is this going to be a disturbing horror flick rather than an action movie like The Raid?
 
yeah, it's going to be more of horror-thriller flick along the lines of Ken Russell's The Devils. I think there might be some action elements involved based on some of the set photos and the fact that on IMDB you can see there are still a fair bit of stunt people and action coordinators involved, but Evans has stated that this isn't really going to be an action movie, and certainly nothing approaching the action focus in The Raid movies. i think their will be some survival action in this one but the focus is going to be much more on mood, mystery, horror.
 
Looks excellent. SOUNDS excellent too. Very Jonny Greenwood.
 
Looks awesome. I can't wait to see Gareth Evans dive into horror some more. I really enjoyed his short Safe Haven in V/H/S/2.
 
It looks like the bastard child of SAW and The Wicker Man.
 
Premieres tomorrow at Fantastic Fest.
 
So far the Twitter reactions have been very enthusiastic. Sounds like a winner.
 
The trailer was okay, but I think this movie will be a lot better than what Netflix cut together.
 
Personally, I thought it was a really good trailer, especially in the back-half starting with the switch-blade and how it takes on that rhythm.
