Masters of Horror: Sounds Like (2006)
Season 2, Episode 4
10/10
An amazingly horrific look at the terror of sound
9 February 2008
I've long thought that there was a great horror film waiting to be made about the horror of everyday sounds, and "Sounds Like" is the closest thing I have seen to date that qualifies as that film. An unrelentingly bleak episode, it probably will not be enjoyed by some, but the skill in display here is undeniable. Featuring strong performances across the board, a very well written script that maintains it's tension and integrity throughout and excellent cinematography, Brad has delivered one of the best chapters in Master of Horror to date. Many episodes have good moments interspersed, or fall apart at the end, failing to find a way to tell a story within the hour that feels complete without feeling padded or compromised. "Sounds Like" is an exception. Once seen, this episode will stick with you for a while, especially the disturbing "sound" of decay. Don't miss it.
