Questa recensione è stata scritta per Recensori in anteprima di LibraryThing. The title and description of this book offer an interesting hook, the idea of what our brain can create in isolation. The themes of horror in this book, however, barely address the theme. There is horror, and suspense, but rather than a unique take on a little known neurological phenomenon, the story relies on a number of inaccurate and harmful stereotypes about child abuse, military PTSD, and indigenous legends to move along a plot that at times is compelling in it's level of detail but mostly just cringey and perpetuates easy and unnuanced tropes. Rather than explore these, and the effects of the 'prisoners cinema', the plot rushes to a sudden, incomplete, and unsatisfying conclusion, in which the complex inner feelings of the protagonist are suddenly dropped in favor of an unbelievable act of violence seemingly inconsistent with the build up. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
Savannah has grown up preparing for the end of the world. Her father is Teddy Unser, ex-con and doomsday prepper devoted to the day he and his family will have to run. But Teddy is tired of waiting, and when Savannah is fourteen, he steals a water truck and commits a cataclysmic attack in which Savannah and her little sister Mía find themselves accomplices. Teddy flees with the girls and their grandmother into a macabre refuge inside a labyrinth of caves. Now Savannah must fight to protect her little sister while at the same time reconcile the nagging sense of loyalty she feels for her father. But supplies are running out and paranoia is fast consuming the hideout. Confined with a madman, the girls have no choice but to use their wits and the wilderness itself to survive. Inspired by true events and steeped in myth, Prisoner's Cinema is Ruby Ridge meets The Shining. Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |

I thought this book was extremely well written. I really felt for the girls. I did feel that the supernatural element was just thrown in at the end of the book. It really felt like an afterthought. Because of this criticism, 3 out of 5 stars. ( )
