The pandemic has inspired a slew of horror
films, and "Sick" is one of the latest offerings. The story follows two friends
who go to quarantine at a lake house, only to be stalked by a masked killer.
The film deftly weaves together slasher tropes and COVID-19 themes,
incorporating dark humor and Gothic elements. Co-written by Kevin Williamson,
the writer of "Scream," the film also features a smart commentary on pop culture
and misinformation in the pandemic age.
As the plot progresses, the film delves into themes of privilege and egotism,
culminating in a shocking revelation about one of the characters' actions.
Overall, "Sick" is a clever and entertaining COVID-19-era slasher with a
thoughtful message. |
