2024 Mini Reviews (Strange Darling, Exhuma, It’s What’s Inside)

In this episode of Horror Hour with the Hanna's, we critically examine three of 2024’s most talked-about limited-release horror films: Strange Darling, Exhuma, and It’s What’s Inside. Are these movies delivering fresh scares, or do they fall victim to overhyped ambition?

• Strange Darling : This romantic-slasher hybrid’s nonlinear storytelling has earned praise for its bold risks, but we dive into whether its twists overshadow character development and emotional depth.
• Exhuma: A supernatural horror story with ancient curses and personal demons. While its eerie visuals stand out, does the film’s slow pacing and lack of narrative clarity undermine its tension?
• It’s What’s Inside: Mixing sci-fi horror with biting social commentary, this film explores vanity, identity, and survival. But does it overextend itself, leaving some themes undercooked?

Join us as we separate the genuinely terrifying from the underwhelming, exploring what these films bring to the genre and where they miss the mark. If you’re wondering which ones to watch—or skip—we’ve got you covered.
