This was a SCARY Movie - Primate Review

In this episode of After the Scream with Chris & Jess, I break down one of the more surprising HORROR films to come along recently. It’s creepy, intense, and genuinely scary at times—while also clearly pulling inspiration from some truly iconic horror and sci-fi films.

I talk about what works, what doesn’t, and why certain moments really got under my skin. From the tension and atmosphere to the performances and themes, this movie knows how to build unease and keep you locked in. It may not reinvent the genre, but it understands it—and uses that knowledge in smart (and unsettling) ways.

I also dive into:

• What films it feels inspired by
• Why some scenes are far more effective than expected
• The scares that actually land
• And the big question: is this one worth your time?

If you’re a fan of intelligent genre films that blend suspense, horror, and big ideas, this is definitely one to talk about.

Watch, then come scream with us.
