Video Review – Sick continues Kevin Williamson’s legacy as a slasher master!

January 9, 2023 by EJ Moreno

EJ Moreno with a video review of Peacock’s Sick…

If you want your horror movie to shine, just call Kevin Williamson. Along with some sleek direction, Peacock’s Sick is a pandemic slasher that offers up so many terrifying goodies. 

Known for his work on Scream and I Know What You Did Last Summer, Williamson knows how to pen a script. Sick would be just another streamer slasher if it wasn’t for his talents as a writer. But director John Hyams offers up an excellent directing style that brings everything to life.

Peacock is becoming the home for horror with masterful, thrilling, and gleefully twisted films like Sick. Critic EJ Moreno dives into why this is one of the early must-see movies of the year.

Check out the review below, and be sure to follow us on YouTube for more reviews, exclusive interviews, and other video content…

As the pandemic steadily brings the world to a halt, Parker and her best friend Miri decide to quarantine at the family lake house alone—or so they think.

Featuring in the cast of Sick are Gideon Adlon, Bethlehem Million, Marc Menchaca, and Jane Adams.

Sick premieres on Peacock on January 13th.
