Feeling more like a demonic version of Indiana Jones if he had a smartphone, The Pyramid’s premise falls a little flat here. There is nothing incredibly special here to separate it from the boring and banal. Whatever happened to good creepy horrors? Relying on a fad that made films such as Paranormal Activity and Blair Witch popular only smatters this film with more dullness. Rather than actively pushing the modern horror forward, it feels like its ancient stuff here. Plus, it’s from the creators of The Hills Have Eyes which, if you are anything like me, is yet another yawn inducing tagline. It also stars James Buckley from The Inbetweeners fame.
The Pyramid could be ok but I have low expectations. Coming out December 5th, it may just scoop in an audi- OH MY GOD WHAT WAS THAT!
