Passenger review
A demonic entity attaches itself to travellers on the road in this competently directed but hopelessly indistinctive scare-free misfire
TL;DR
- "Passenger" is described as a generic, by-the-book Paramount horror film lacking originality.
- The film's mythology is murky, rules are underwritten, and scares are ineffective and annoying.
- The characters are difficult to root for, and the film fails to capture the intended claustrophobia or terror.
- The movie is compared unfavorably to other recent horror films and seen as a step backward for the genre.
