bz_siege_01 At some point in the future, scientists will be able to prove that watching terrible movies is harmful to your intelligence and overall psyche. The day they do that, this movie is going to be named in my lawsuit.The wife and I love a good horror movie. But we also enjoy putting on a bad horror movie and making fun of it. Some movies, such as this one, are so bad that you can't even extract comedy from them.For instance, it's been scientifically proved that Demons at the Door is the worst movie ever made (and will also be named in my lawsuit). However, it's so absurd that you can laugh at it.I don't even need spoilers to illustrate how bad this movie is. The quality is just so bad that a lot of the time your face will be scrunched up in a "what the hell was the point of that?" expression. The cuts are awful. In one scene, the blast of typical horror movie "shock" music cuts flat off. I almost guarantee they noticed something wrong with the scene in the editing room and instead of re-shooting, they just said, "cut it there."There are long, pointless pauses in the dialog. The expressions don't match the actual mood. The scenes skip all over the place.Worst... the music. Most modern horror movies use the typical method of focusing on the main character in the scene, then something flits by in the background while they play a short, intense burst of "shock" music meant to startle you. In most cases, without the sound, the scene wouldn't make you jump and wouldn't even be ominous. Well, apparently the person who produced this movie was so startled by the flit/shock- music thing during some movie that he decided to use it every few minutes. I'm not exaggerating. If they change scenes, there is a burst of shock music. If they zoom in on someone's face, it is accompanied by shock music. If the main character reaches for a Kleenex, it definitely calls for shock music. I was baffled when I reached for my coffee and no music played.Acting wasn't terrible. Plot has been done a thousand times. Main actress is cute. But they should never have let the monkeys into the editing room... the choppy, ham-fisted style ruined even the possibility of a corny B movie and the subsequent laughs.You've been warned.CWB
shadowfax73 ......and I'm being kind. The only good thing about this whole crapquake is laughing at the many shills here that desperately try to give this 'movie' a high rating and good review. As someone else here has pointed out, having your review history consisting of 1 review i.e. this piece of trash, is a bit of a giveaway, wouldn't you say? But don't feel too bad, you are not alone. There are many analbots out there, just like you, writing the same kind of 'reviews' and every single one comes across like a more-on.I suggest that if you want to continue writing fake reviews that you at least take a creative writing course as, at the present time, you make those Nigerian 419 scammers letters read like George Bernard Shaw in comparison.
Harry T This is a good movie, if you can follow what's going on and put things together especially at the end. At the beginning of the story, you are kept in the dark, like all movies, as to what's going on. Towards the middle you get a little confused with all the crazy things happening in the village. There are some twists and turns and suspicious events happening. At the very end you find out what really happened. You walk out of the movie theater talking about how the story comes together at the end, and how cleverly they kept us in suspense. I see a lot of negative reviews, from people who are most likely unaware, of what it takes to make a movie. It's not a great movie but it's good.
John Berry This is an incoherent mess.The music is stupid.The feel is low budget, it isn't scary. The parts that should be are just laughably bad.It skips like a damaged record, it makes as much sense as a dream does when you are awake.The 2.7 rating is probably generous.It isn't unwatchable, but is rather unenjoyable even if you have really low standards.The movie is inconsistent within it's internal logic, the viewer would have to be psychically linked to the main character and suffering from ergot poisoning for what is shown to make any sense. Find another movie to watch.
