A young man accused of killing his girlfriend and his beloved, Mirren. Ig Perrish is the suspect after the murder of his girlfriend Mirren, and no one believes that Perrish is innocent of the charge. Ig woke up after a drunken night and discovered that he had strange horns coming out of his head. lg began to transform into a tremendous force that makes it able to make others recognize the deepest guilt in their lives. Perrish knew that these trumpets would be his instrument in the search for the real murderer and revenge for the crime that managed to eliminate his girlfriend.
Horns appears to be of the persuasion that everybody is a liar and inherently evil, and it's a disappointingly one-note approach to a premise that could use a lighter touch.
Daniel Radcliffe gives an absolutely incredible performance that Horns doesn't really seem to fully appreciate. But the ludicrous ending derails the film from what was otherwise a gripping mystery thriller.
At nearly two hours, "Horns" is about 30 minutes longer than it needs to be. But it's doubtful even a shorter version would cure what ails this film. Maybe you have to be tripped out on LSD to appreciate it.
