Reviews
It's not great by any means, but it's a pretty good movie that didn't leave me filled with regret for investing time in it.
Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.
Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable
The movie really just wants to entertain people.
'The Tower' is a unique merging of art, gore, zombies, and science fiction strung together to make one of the most original horror films to come out of Detroit since Sam Raimi's 'Evil Dead'. There are influences of Raimi's possessed 'deadites', Romero's classic zombies and gore- along with high concept science fiction and macabre elements that reminded me of Phantasm, House, and Suspiria.There's a lot of atmosphere in this film, helping to keep you in a dreadful state of mind. You are traveling along with Lucy and a confused survivor in a world that seems separated from reality- always trying to unravel the mystery of the Tower. It's a movie for those who like to be lost in a cinematic nightmare. The music is cool, and the makeup effects are awesome.There's a strong payoff in the end as it dives deeper into a sci-fi / fantasy realm than most films of the horror genre do these days. I think that's my favorite thing about the film.I loved 'The Tower'. It's a film that defies genre expectations, and worthy of it's growing cult following.
