Watch Blood Red Sky

Blood Red Sky is a German horror-thriller movie from 2021 that follows the story of a woman named Nadja, who is suffering from a terminal illness of leukemia. She is traveling to New York City with her young son, Elias, for a life-saving treatment. But things take a surprising turn when their plane is hijacked by a group of terrorists, led by Berg, who plans to use the plane as a weapon for a terrorist attack.

Nadja is a woman of mystery, and things become even more mysterious when she shows her fangs and transforms into a vampire determined to protect her son and the other passengers aboard the plane. She attempts to hide her true nature from the passengers, but as the terrorists' demands become increasingly violent, Nadja has to rely on her vampire instincts to keep herself and Elias alive.

Blood Red Sky is a thrilling, action-packed movie that takes the viewer on a rollercoaster ride, as Nadja navigates the terrains of her illness, motherhood, and a hijacked plane filled with terrorists. Peri Baumeister is magnificent as Nadja, her performance is both commanding and heartfelt. Carl Anton Koch plays her son, Elias, and brings a sense of innocence, vulnerability, and strength that elevates the mother-son relationship. Alexander Scheer, who plays Berg, is a fantastic villain who is just as ruthless as he is laid back.

The film is set up in two distinct settings; the inside of the plane, a claustrophobic hall that creates an excellent amount of tension, and flashbacks to Nadja's life before she became a vampire. The flashbacks provide an emotional backdrop for Nadja's journey on the plane, which makes the viewer root for Nadja even more.

The director, Peter Thorwarth, does an excellent job of balancing the horror and action, making sure that the movie never feels gratuitous or exploitative. The movie also explores the limits of what a person would do to protect their loved ones, including the choices that follow. The film also asks questions about the nature of humanity and whether or not we are capable of being redeemed from our most violent impulses.

The movie's pacing is swift, and the action scenes are well choreographed, with a sense of danger always looming in the background. It's impressive how the movie manages to create so much tension and excitement, despite the limited setting. Blood Red Sky is a movie that will keep you on the edge of your seat from beginning to end.

Overall, Blood Red Sky is a fantastic movie that manages to combine horror and action in a unique and exciting way. The performances, tight direction, and excellent screenplay make it one of the best horror movies of this year. Highly recommended for people who enjoy a good horror-thriller.
