The focus isn’t all on special effects and making things look cool, but instead goes mainly to the story and the real scares, and The Signal is a perfect example of that. That’s not to say it doesn’t have more than its fair share of the red stuff, but the story doesn’t just exist to lead us to the next kill.

What if technology ran amok and caused people to go insane? The movie poses that question and paints a truly frightening picture of what the result would be.

The thing that works most about The Signal is the way its shot. The film is split into three segments, each with a different director. The first sets everything up so well, the second is filled with delicious dark comedy and the third perfectly ties everything together.

The Signal could’ve failed in so many ways, but it avoids the typical horror movie cliches and works on every possible level.

Quick Review: If you haven’t seen The Signal yet, watch it now. You won’t regret it.
