Dan Katt
Dan Katt has been popping up all over lately, hasn’t he? His name’s attached to some wild rides, and if you’ve caught any of his recent stuff, you know exactly what I’m talking about. Let’s start with Fall (2022). That thing is not just a thriller—it’s a nerve-shredder. Two friends climb this ridiculously tall, abandoned radio tower, and surprise, surprise, things go horribly sideways. You’re watching them dangle and you’re just sweating, palms glued to your chair, because the camera work makes you feel like you’re right up there with them, clutching rusty metal, wind howling. Seriously, if you’ve got a problem with heights, maybe just don’t.
Then you’ve got The Black Demon (2023), which, honestly, takes a classic “killer shark” setup and cranks it up about ten notches. Picture a family trapped on a crumbling oil rig, and this absolute monster of a shark is circling like it’s got a personal vendetta. Add in some creepy folklore and sudden bursts of violence, and you’ve got a real edge-of-your-seat, “maybe don’t go swimming” situation. It’s not just about jump scares, either—there’s some genuine tension and a few moments that’ll make you question your next beach vacation.
Now, F*** Marry Kill (2024) is a whole different beast. Think twisted relationships, dark humor, and enough surprises to keep you guessing. It’s messy, chaotic, and kind of irresistible—sort of like a trainwreck you can’t look away from. Dan Katt’s got solid range, no doubt about it. He’s not afraid to get weird, go dark, or just mess with your expectations. Keeps things interesting, ya know?
