Horror fans are left ‘throwing up and suffering panic attacks’ after watching Fall

Horror fans have been made physically sick by the movie Fall.

The survival thriller follows two friends, Becky (Grace Caroline Currey) and Hunter (Virginia Gardner), who climb a 2,000-foot-tall radio tower and are stranded on top without being able to get down.

While it launched in the United States last summer, it was only recently added to Netflix, with a new batch of viewers discovering it in the past few days.

It’s not a movie for the faint-hearted, as viewers take to Twitter to say it had left them physically ill.

Common viewer complaints are overwhelming feelings of stress, nausea, and anxiety, particularly among those who are afraid of heights.

On Twitter, viewers wrote: ‘Actually induced a stress headache. A really entertaining watch’; ‘I saw this yesterday. I didn’t know what to expect and was pleasantly surprised…and terrified! He suddenly has a new fear of heights. I was a bit disappointed with the ending, I just felt it was a bit rushed.’;

‘I had sweaty palms from about 2 minutes after they got stuck all the way. Not the best movie to watch if you have a fear of heights.’; ‘It made me feel so sick, I had to pause the movie, to get a break from the horrible feeling. The best notes.

‘I hid behind a cushion for most of that movie, I thought I was cool with heights… maybe not!’; “I felt dizzy just watching the trailer. Don’t think this is going to work for me’;

‘good movie…it made me throw up and have a panic attack, but oh well’; ‘I saw this in theaters, when I tell you my hands were sweating the whole movie’; ‘Watching ‘Fall’ on Netflix… I don’t think I’ve ever been so stressed in my entire life!

The film has been positively received by critics and currently has a score of 79 percent on Rotten Tomatoes.

Empire Magazine gave the film four stars, with critic John Nugent writing, “This is an enjoyable sort of retrospective thriller, a movie that’s only interested in making your palms sweat and adrenal glands race. In those modest goals, is completely successful.’

Wendy Ide of The Observer gave it three stars, noting, “Even if you don’t suffer from vertigo, there are moments in Scott Mann’s thriller: the one-handed selfie taken while dangling from a rusty grate 2,000 feet in the sky, for example”. – which are almost impossible to see.

She added, “While the pacing does stutter a bit — after all, there are plenty of ways you can almost fall off a tower — the tension is unrelenting.”

It is the latest horror film to induce a strong physical reaction after fans revealed they had been left terrified and nauseated by the ‘haunting’ new film The Outwaters.

The indie film was released earlier this month and has already made a splash with critics, earning rave reviews.

But viewers have been greatly affected and disturbed by the blockbuster, and they took to Twitter to reveal their surprise.

In The Outwaters, directed by Robbie Banfitch, things turn terrifying after a camping trip to the Mojave Desert goes horribly wrong.

The four campers, who are trying to film a music video in the desert, are subject to horrific occurrences including strange animal behavior and vibrations.
