Red Coats

A visually enticing historical thriller with an unsettling twist.
4/5

Review

In Adam White’s thriller, set against the backdrop of the American Revolutionary War, a chilling horror-themed tale unfolds, turning the pages of history with a unique twist. Starring Collin Linneville, Timothy Jacob Brown, Cody Mount, and Rafael Ayala as British soldiers, colloquially known as redcoats, the film thrusts them into a dense forest, where an unforeseen antagonist shadows their every move.

While the acting performances are commendable, a minor discrepancy arises in the fluctuating accents of the characters portraying British soldiers. However, the true standout of the film lies in the exceptional cinematography by Maxwell Peterson. The visuals are a cinematic delight, characterized by well-shot widescreen framing, impeccable color grading, and a mastery of lighting and sound design that reflect a truly professional touch.

The narrative is engaging, weaving a dynamic interplay between characters that adds depth to the overall experience. Despite being a part-horror film, the suspense is softly balanced, making it accessible to a wider audience. The unexpected monster-themed twist injects a thrilling unpredictability into the storyline, elevating the film’s intrigue.

Technically, ‘Red Coats’ dazzles with it’s incredible visuals, showcasing a high level of professional craftsmanship all round. While the narrative may meander at times, the overall entertainment value is undeniable, and the film successfully marries technical brilliance with an engaging storyline. White’s thriller, with its historical spin and captivating cinematics, is certain to offers audiences a rousing experience.
