Robb’s review published on Letterboxd:
Very well made, naturalist horror with a relentless, considerate pace that somehow manages to avoid being dull or boring. In a Violent Nature is unlike any other slasher I have seen, with a perspective that’s unique and an impressive new killer that wears its inspirations from Halloween, Friday the 13th, and The Texas Chainsaw Massacre with pride and just the right amount of reference, avoiding the fate of petty imitator. I will add however, that without a central character to latch onto, I did struggle to attach myself to the film until a ways in, and I hope in the future installment Kris has more character. Of course, I can see that ruining what makes this unique to so many people, and the final shots of the film still create haunting tension without much characterization, but I don’t think Chris Nash will find similar success by just running back this singular concept.
Grew on me as it went. Great concept, strong execution. Looking forward to the next one.
