Netflix’s ‘Bird Box’ Being Called Most Terrifying Movie Ever by Some Viewers

Netflix’s Sandra Bullock-led horror/thriller Bird Box has managed to make quite a splash over the Christmas holiday, despite receiving a slew of mixed reviews. As with Netflix‘s 2017 holiday feature Bright, viewers seem to be embracing Bird Box in a much bigger and better way than critics, as the film has managed to generate a strong social media buzz.

The mystery of Bird Box‘s deadly mind-warping creatures is propelling a lot of the online discussion, but given that it’s also part of the horror genre, fans are also having the usual debates about just how scary (or not) a horror film it is. And apparently, for some viewers, Bird Box is turning out to be the scariest movie they’ve ever seen!

Check out why some fans online are now claiming they’ve been irreparably scarred by Bird Box:

Freaky Incredible

This viewer thought the film wasn’t just scary, but also incredible. The online community wasn’t very kind in their responses…

Best of 2018

In a year where horror has had a good run (A Quiet Place, Hereditary, Halloween), this fan thinks the genre saved the best for last with Bird Box. 

Heartbreakingly Great

Apparently some fans aren’t jus enamored by the horror, but the drama as well. That’s a pretty hard act to pull off.

Emotional Trauma
