Shuddercontinues it 61 Days of Halloween with the movie Scare Me. A horror film that leaves the scares up to the imagination. Something that is rare these days, and welcomed by me.
Josh Ruben not only stars in the film, but he also wrote and directed it. Wearing all three hats worked out well for him. I cannot wait to see what he does next. Before we get to that, let’s talk about what he did now.
Fred (Ruben) is a wannabe writer who desperately needs to get away from his life. Therefore, he goes to a remote location in the woods, and he stays in a cabin. The area is not that remote because he runs into a best-selling author, Fanny (Aya Cash), who wrote a horror novel.
The two strike up a conversation, but go their separate ways when they are done. Later that night, there is a power outage, and she goes to his cabin so they can experience it together.
Since there is nothing else they can do, they each share different scary stories with each other. Each tale is more terrifying than the one before it, all leading to one final tale that will leave you with nightmares for days afterward.
There recently was a study out this week that people who watch horror movies do better with dealing with the pandemic. Therefore, watch Scare Me twice and call me in the morning. That will probably be 5a because you didn’t get any sleep after Scare Me scares you.
