The Visitor (2022)
Meh
So this is not a good movie. It's watchable-ish. It's very slow. I have questions. What did these people do for a living? Why frogs in the middle of the entryway floor? He suddenly doesn't need glasses? He doesn't seem to care? Just dumb.
Would have been nice to have just one character we could root for. Hapless husband. Annoying wife. Creepy pastor. Nobody. Not even a dog. Even the house was not that scary.
There's like 2 jumps but otherwise nothing. Some yuckyness toward the end but then it's like I'm just fast forwarding to make it end and who cares. Don't waste your time. It's okay as background noise while you do the dishes.
Funny You Should Ask (2017)
Good laundry folding noise
So not good. But does have sound when you want noise in the background while folding laundry. I'm a little embarrassed for Byron Allen and some of the other people on this show. It's just dumb.
House (2008)
What did I just watch?!?
So was that a bad morality tale or a bad horror flick? Pretty predictable if you're paying attention but then why would you? It's not scary. I was looking for something engaging and this did not meet that basic requirement. I just didn't care about any of the characters. They were pretty flat. The choices they made didn't really make sense in the story. I hoped that it would be explained so I kept watching. For me, it wasn't. Dirt road versus clearly marked highway? Sure, it's suddenly raining. Let's go into the scary, old house. Metal spikes, guns, knives? Dumb.
Ghosts of War (2020)
Not bad, end ticked me off.
So, gore, eviserated corpses, pretty good jump scares. Very video game feel.
But the end! Cheap,"we ran out of money" kind of ending. Up until the last moment I was with you. Then. Ugghh!
Reasonable Doubt (2014)
Entertaining but stupid
So here's the thing...there are so many things that make this movie ridiculous and yet somehow entertaining. The story is interesting but implausible. There are so many inconsistencies. Why not call the cops when someone broke into his house? Why would someone run across a field instead of getting in his car? Okay to watch while folding laundry!
Margaret (2011)
So sloooooow
Is it just me or is this the slowest movie ever? It's really about a girl figuring out her world. And honestly, by the end, I just wanted it to end. Slow spins around the city. Children arguing about things they know nothing about. Adults using children against each other and being terrible people.
2 and a half hours where not a lot happens.
Sigh!
The Shortcut (2009)
But where's Tammy?!?
So not particularly scary. Pretty predictable. Stumbling about in the woods. I thought the very end might be a fun twist but the foreshadowing was pretty thick. Some decent acting so that's fun. Was okay for a "nothing else to do" kind of night. Franco was fun and kinda cute back in the day. Big question "what happened to Tammy?"
Wildling (2018)
Interesting but holes
So this is an interesting story. Unique but try not to think too hard as you watch it. There are several plot holes large enough to drive a truck through. Baby? Small town? Wolf dude? What the heck! Just enjoy it! Might stop it at 1:25:44. Very end real stupid!
Frenzy (2018)
Omg horrible embarrassing
So I didn't have high hopes for this and I wasn't disappointed. Why would you actually spend money and time on this claptrap. Syfy May have hit a new low! Look I'm all for sharks, blood, and attractive people dying horrible deaths but really syfy? You could have attempted either a little realism or gone high camp. This movie is so dumb and so predictable. SKIP IT!!
The Ritual (2017)
Good beginning disappointing ending
This is my very first review! Here's the thing, I've had many opinions about many movies but for some reason, I feel the need to review this one. The beginning was great. Character development which is so rare in a horror film. Cinematography amazing. Ending sucked. No spoilers but there really aren't reasons for things that happen. Watch about half then use your imagination and you'll make more sense of it!
