A random "best
of the year in horror" list on social media from an acquaintance of mine
is the reason Starfish ended up in my review queue. The author listed Starfish
as his #2 slot. This is how I came to watch this film. If I had heard of the
film in my previous excursions around the genre internet, it never made an
impact on me to remember to keep an eye out for it. Even though it recently
dropped on VOD, Starfish had almost no marketing and hype to it in my
world. Partner that with the rather intriguing, but bland poster and I'm not
sure I would have watched this film. Shame, really. Starfish is
fantastic and it deserves so much more hype and discussion that I’m seeing it
receive.
