fedor8 It's a pity that this relatively original story, with a good first hour, had to take such a cretinous, totally baffling turn into dumb-thriller territory in the last third, almost completely ruining the interesting build-up. The invalid guy morphs idiotically into a silly Jason Voorhees clone, which is far-fetched and very silly, not to mention generic, made even worse by the fact that the guy playing him is a really hack actor who says his lines as if he's in a high school play. What started as a film that seemed to successfully escape its B-movie limitations ended up being just as nit-witted as the typical Z-movie flick. The movie rapidly deteriorates, as though someone tore up the last part of the original script and some clueless and confused newbie was hired to scribble something up in a rush.There are so many stupid things going on in the idiotic finale, so I will just cover the basic stuff. Suddenly the invalid becomes an all-powerful, cunning serial-killer type who somehow reaps only benefits from using the machine whereas the junkie has very few of these powers: the junkie completely fails in stopping another junkie from using the bad heroin, yet the invalid manages to pretty much do anything he wants.I can't stand movies that blatantly break their own logic, their own rules, just to advance plot-twists that a pigeon could write.

Dark_Lord_Mark This is one of those movies that make you search out for horror. You ignore the ratings of those artsy fartsy reviews who think they know it all. The Ghostmaker was wonderful and engaging.It was a mix of sci-fi and mix of horror. It was small budget but the 3 male leads were excellent. The movie is about a machine that allows you to die. Somewhat like FLatliners but nothing wrong with a movie that is similar. It has it's own spin and scenarios and twists.Excellent, highly recommended for horror fans. If you are a fan of horror I will give this a 8-9 out of 10. Don't knock it because it is low budget. It's a highly watchable movie.

Rorschach This is one of the good horror film i have watch.. I would recommend my friends on this film.. Its rather interesting and scary at some parts.. Not sure why it's not widespread among horror movie lovers and i feel its under rating too.. Maybe the advertising part wasn't enough.. People are not aware of this movie.. I found this movie online quite randomly otherwise i don't even know it exist.. Usually i watch horror movies rather attentive and really appreciate if its good.. This movie really deserve a higher rating.. Compliments to the people involve making this film.. Thank you. I hope those people who watch this movie after reading my review enjoy it..

princedelapau There used to be a cocktail once that contained gin, absinthe and, possibly, brandy - I can't remember. I do know, however, that it was more-or-less banned back in the 1920s for causing effects similar to brain death.This film is the visual version of that great drink.The plot is implausible at best, the characters are the sort that make you truly wish that they would suffer and die, preferably quickly, and the special fx, if there actually were any used, were less interesting even than the characters.Firstly, the film wasn't horror. It certainly wasn't even scary. It most definitely wasn't even logical.Three ubiquitous horror film staples - college kids - find themselves involved with an ancient coffin containing some actually quite wondrous clockwork devices that enable the person lying in the coffin to experience existence as a ghost.An interesting premise, but it goes downhill from there on. The director apparently equated "ancient" with the fifteenth century and then filled a typical 19th century coffin with all manner of cogwheels and little rocking thingies and dinky widgets, gadgets and twinkly Faraday electric arc effects to create a machine that is marvellous to the eye which, and this is important, is ALSO a fabulous music box in the Grotesquerie style: imagine Stravinsky's weirder works blown through a sound attenuation device and echo chamber.Add to this a "Mechanical Death" stalking (in a gentle, non-frightening, non-disruptive manner) the guys using the machine and you end up with a film that - with just a little rewriting, re-editing and a new set of actors who actually CAN act - would make a fairly good Gothic comedy horror.Naturally one of the students falls victim to Death's barely discernible wrath; one goes totally demented and becomes a stalker/rapist/generic psycho - but not too violent, of course - while the third somehow manages to rehabilitate himself from thief/junkie to all-round Good Egg in order to save the day. If, after reading this review, you feel a sudden urge to rush out and get this film on DVD or download it from the Internet, please consider psychiatric help.I've given three stars to the film for one simple reason: the wonderful Antikytheran clockwork machinery. Well, maybe half a star went to Aaron Dean Eisenberg for being rather cute...I'll shut up now.
