Don't Move is a lean, small, efficient murder-in-the-woods thriller that effectively channels nostalgia for low-budget genre films, echoing the principles of legendary producers.
Raimi is paying tribute to his roots, producing lots of low-to-mid-budget genre movies that showcase young directors and small casts, ultimately creating fresh yet simple films.
This kind of small-time film is a time-honored aspect of genre filmmaking, wedged between no-budget indies and the boutique brands like Blumhouse and A24.
Don't Move is not a future cult classic nor a masterpiece, but rather a straightforward, expedient thriller that celebrates the art of inexpensive genre filmmaking.
