WES CRAVEN'S CHILLER

Cinemavixion Review

Wes Craven, a master of modern horror, ventures into speculative thriller territory with 'Chiller.' This 1985 film presents a chilling premise: a man, Miles Creighton, is cryogenically frozen only to be revived a decade later, tragically devoid of his soul. The narrative explores the existential horror of returning to life as a hollow shell, a concept that resonates with Craven's penchant for delving into the darker aspects of the human psyche. Michael Beck leads the cast, embodying the soulless resurrected executive. While the film may not possess the visceral scares of Craven's later works, it offers a thought-provoking exploration of identity, mortality, and what truly constitutes life, making it a curious and worthwhile watch for fans of the director's diverse filmography.
