Man Challenges Viewers To Get Through Netflix Horror Movie Without ‘Freaking Out’

For those of us who are always on the lookout for movies that will give us sleepless nights, Netflix offers a range of horror gems. Whether it’s the unsettling “Hellhole” or the spine-chilling Spanish horror “Tin & Tina,” the streaming giant has a selection of scary films that cater to your taste. However, one particular film seems to stand out in terms of sheer terror, as shared by TikToker Chad, known as @moviesandbuff. Chad considers a lesser-known Netflix thriller titled “I See You” to be a hidden gem in the horror genre.

Set in a small town, this unsettling thriller unfolds as a series of bizarre incidents occur, compelling a detective and his family to investigate the mysterious disappearance of a young boy. Directed by Adam Randall, known for “iBoy,” the film stars Helen Hunt from “As Good As It Gets,” Jon Tenney from “The Closer,” and Judah Lewis from “The Christmas Chronicles.” Impressively, “I See You” has garnered a positive reception from critics and boasts a commendable 76% approval rating on Rotten Tomatoes.

Taking to the video-sharing platform, TikTok, Chad, a self-professed “movie nerd,” passionately asserts, “I don’t care how hardened or desensitized you are; there’s absolutely no way you can watch this entire movie without freaking out. Trust me, just skip to the scene at 37 minutes in, and let me know your thoughts. This isn’t merely a horror film; it’s a thriller!”

People have flooded the comment section of Chad’s post with their reactions to the film. Enthusiastic viewers express their love for the movie, with some admitting they had to sleep with the lights on after watching. Others share that they found the film intense and captivating. In contrast, a few who have seen it hold differing opinions.

Some label the film as “mid,” suggesting it didn’t live up to their expectations. Another user found the movie merely alright and not particularly scary. Yet another film enthusiast describes it as “meh,” acknowledging it wasn’t terrible but wouldn’t be their top recommendation.

“I See You” is currently available for streaming on Netflix US, offering a suspenseful and intriguing viewing experience for those in search of an unsettling thriller.
