Review of Medusa

Medusa (2020)
4/10
Confused
13 October 2021
At first I expected something along the lines of Greek mythology mixed with urban times. It.. kind of was? They portrayed the pretty blonde actress as a woman who turns into medusa after contracting some virus. To me this kind of comes off as afflicting her into a zombie creature. I didn't appreciate this aspect of the story at all.

They did use the urban atmosphere, but in the sleeziest way possible, trailer park prostitutes who are abused. I think their should've at least been a romantic occurrence with medusa, in order to bind with the Greek mythology where medusa originates. Nope. Didn't happen. This gave me the feel of easy and effortless storytelling.

I appreciate the effort of the film crew trying to create an urban creature feature from Greek Mythology. However, it just didn,didn't, work here. That is why I rated this movie a generous 4/10.
