To some extent, they do undercut some of the movie’s tension. Initially, audiences may get a little frustrated with the flashbacks. Hostile alternates from Juliette’s present dilemma to her past relationship with boyfriend Jack prior to the apocalypse. Much of the success of Hostile then is contingent upon how successfully Turi balances drama with the horror. …Turi’s screenplay weaves a unique and strong emotional theme through its past and present moments that serve to make each flashback integral to the climax’s payoff.
Writer and director Mathieu Turi ( Meandre) has made a drama about human relationships that includes horror elements. With regards to story and tone, Hostile shares common ground with recent Netflix zombie movie, Cargo. It’s less interested in scaring or grossing audiences out. Horror fans be forewarned – Hostile is not a straightforward horror movie. Trapped, hurt, and alone, Juliette finds herself in a desperate battle to stay alive. But she’s not alone – one the wasteland’s mysterious stalkers has found her. Following an accident, Juliette, a lone survivor, finds herself alone and trapped in her truck with a broken leg. And viscious mutated creatures stalk the wastelands. Now survivors struggle to cobble together any sort of sustenance. Something has wiped most of humanity from existence. It’s the future and civilization has fallen.
