It’s not often that a movie comes along and creates its own genre. Spring, written by Justin Benson and directed by Benson and Aaron Moorhead (who also created the Bonestorm segment of V/H/S Viral, actually does just that: RomHor! Does that sound dumb or overhyped? Probably both, but I feel it’s true. I’ve seen many a romantic drama, and many a horror movie, and this is absolutely a successful fusion of both in that neither element feels half assed. The movie poster describes it as Richard Linklater meets HP Lovecraft – not a terrible mashup, but not completely accurate, to me anyway. This is clearly the movie that Benson and Moorhead set out to make, and I mostly liked it.
