The Curse is a gripping horror film that revolves around the life of a struggling actor named Keith being haunted by a mysterious curse throughout his career. The movie starts off with Keith's first introduction as a child actor in a school play. However, the play does not go as planned, and Keith is suddenly plagued by crippling stage fright. Years later, Keith is now an adult and struggling actor, still haunted by his childhood trauma.

One day, Keith lands his first big role in a play, but he soon discovers a dark secret behind the production. The play is written and directed by a notorious playwright named Marcus who has a reputation for casting cursed plays that bring immense tragedy to anyone who performs in them. As the production continues, Keith and the rest of the cast are put in grave danger, and their sanity starts to unravel as they realize they are under the curse of the play.

As the rehearsals continue, bizarre events start happening on and off the stage. One of Keith's co-actors goes missing, and the police find her dead in a horrific manner. Keith's psychological state deteriorates as he starts experiencing strange visions of people that he believes are dead. His mental condition is further exacerbated when he discovers that the curse of the play is now affecting his personal life as well.

The movie has a fantastic ensemble cast that portrays their characters to perfection. Michael Wright gives an incredible performance as Keith, showcasing the character's experience of going through a traumatic ordeal with excellent nuance. Alex Maisonette plays the role of Marcus, the playwright, with an eerie calmness that leaves the audience unsettled. Felipe Luciano is excellent in his role as a detective appointed to investigate the murders in the film.

One of the biggest strengths of the film is how it balances the horror tropes with a real emotional story. Keith's struggles with anxiety and trauma, along with the overall theme of how a lack of control over one's feelings can ultimately lead to their destruction, is deeply moving.

The Curse also incorporates some clever horror elements that are sure to spook audiences. The scenes are shot in low light, with the use of shadows and ominous music adding to the atmosphere. The supernatural occurrences are grounded in a sense of reality, which further elevates the horror experience.

Overall, the Curse is an excellent example of a well-crafted horror film that balances its scares with a poignant emotional story. The movie stays with you long after the credits have rolled, leaving a haunting experience that is not easy to forget.

The Curse is a 2013 drama with a runtime of 1 hour and 35 minutes.
