Plenty creepy but psychologically lacking.
It's a wonderfully abstract drama which tackles lofty themes through the eyes of a group of highly intelligent but apathetic teenagers.
Tense without the need to show much, School's Out has some of the creepiest young actors in years.
This is an unnerving parable of a world that will not acknowledge or understand the warning signs constantly before its very eyes. Think Take Shelter for a smart new generation that refuses to look away from approaching catastrophe.
Some will suggest Marnier's film is a satire about "Generation Z snowflakes" and their need to overdramatise, or merely a metaphor for the horrors of growing up "different," but I prefer to take School's Out at face value, over-earnestness and all.
Unnerving, provocative, and fiercely contemporary, School's Out is a political and existential thriller that's journey is hypnotic and perfectly terrifying.
Borrows stylistic devices from horror to create an atmosphere of suffocating paranoia.
