“In the Tall Grass” is a Netflix film based on a short story/novella written by Stephen King and his son Joe Hill. A little disclosure that I have not read the original story, so I can’t attest as to how faithful this film is, so I’ll be looking at the movie on its own merits, as few as they may be.

In terms of quality, I mean. _Final rating:★★½ - Had a lot that appealed to me, didn’t quite work as a whole._

In The Tall Grass, adapted from Stephen King and Joe Hill’s 2012 novel, delivers a tense and eerie experience with a simple yet complex plot set entirely within a mysterious grass field. While the film excels in atmosphere, acting, and cinematography, it struggles with logical consistency and leaves many questions unanswered about its characters and central mystery. Despite its narrative flaws, the film effectively explores themes of time loops and choices, maintaining suspense and psychological…
