Monolith (2016)
whoever wrote this nonsense should be left in the desert themselves!!!
Well Where do we start with this one??Irresponsible wife takes a road trip across the desert with a small child in back seat.Yes really.The car is the safest car available,Futuristic/unbreakable/bulletproof/foolproof/drives itself etc. Well off she goes in it and the kid in tow.She doesn't get the technology of it so when computer tells her to take a short cut cos of an accident ahead she goes down a dirt track,and guess what there aren't any signs and its dark.Kid plays with his Bluetooth device and hey presto!!! He;s locked in Thats the concept of story!!!What happens from now on is the most unintelligent rubbish possibly to ever hit the screens YES THAT BAD.Sorry but the truth needs to be told.If you watch it believe me YOU WILL WANT TO REVIEW IT!!!You will feel that need!!!
Into the Forest (2015)
well acted but oh dear!!! the writer should be brought to answer.
OMG What have I just watched???A host of very capable actors must have read at least the script OR even the book this film was based on!!!! How ludicrous can a story be??A widowed father takes his two female siblings into the middle of nowhere(naturally)He has a silly accident,dies of course and they bury him.of course they do!!! All this during a power outage.Don't bother getting help or even attempt to 1.no fuel 2. dog food is dish of the day.Town nearby....so what.Sister gets raped by towns person who is clearly disturbed by this catastrophic power cut.NO I'M NOT making this up as I go.No sense/reason/explanation/plan/......absolutely nothing.OH BOY Its so bad!!!! If you trust me then don't bother watching this nonsense OR if you do then you were warned!!!! OH I forgot its a slow........burner too!!!
The Unfolding (2016)
found footage garbage,
FAKE reviews here by the busload.However it really is easy to spot them!!! If you see a several reviews which rate a movie highly then you also see a review which rates very low,its obvious that the LOW review would be the genuine one!!! There wouldn't be any point in voting a decent film with low score.No point.even for the trolls. This movie could have been made for peanuts by a bunch of children with a mobile phone.....yes really. The story line is non existent.The editing and cohesion of story is quite pathetic. No horror/acting/effects/scares/twists/ Its a classic found footage bunch of flashing lights/blurry images and stupid dialogue for stupid people.NO SPOILERS NO POINT...TRUST ME.
A Darker Reality (2008)
too much exploitation nowhere near enough quality
With the recent flow of found footage and torture porn movies flooding the market I thought the genre may be receding and we might,just might return to genuine scary and well thought out horror. Well I was wrong.They're still churning em out I.m afraid.Tha sad thing is that this film could have actually been SO MUCH BETTER!!! Daniel Baldwin,never being an Box office draw shows why...overacting creates what should have been a menacing character but results in a totally laughable villain.The tension was non existent and the long long drawn out torture scenes are so exploitative and quite sick,it just leaves an empty pit in the stomach and you have to ask yourself,Why I am bothering?Well I did and I wasn't wrong.Film runs out of ideas.logical ending and sadly fails in every dept.Don't waist your time.Don.t say I didn't warn you!!!
Not Safe for Work (2014)
surprisingly quirky little thriller...well done
Here we have a much used premise of killer in building chasing innocent but very inventive office worker.Done may times before but even with the relatively short running time of just over an hour,this movie packs a lot of punches.Good story,tension.bang up to date technically and a joy to watch.And of course well acted throughout.Check it out if you like fast paced,well made jumpy thrillers. Similar in a lot of ways to a previously unknown thriller called RUN with a young Patrick Dempsey being chased by hit men,but always one step ahead by quick thinking and improvisation.You don.t need gratuitous violence,a bucket full of profanities and OTT action to create a quality thriller.Not Safe to Work is a perfect example of this!
Last Passenger (2013)
poor acting will never create any suspense
I am sorry but where these favourable reviews come from I am aghast!! The acting in this film is very very poor! Kara Tointon for all her looks has a silly grin throughout this movie and quite simply cannot act.Dougray Scott just about holds the whole sorry story together.The rest of the cast are sad indeed.A note to the director...You cannot possibly create a suspenseful film without decent acting It just does not work That is all I have to say. Judge for yourselves. Unfortuneatly when preparing to watch a film one tends to first of all check with IMDb for reviews and expect an honest unbiased account;However its becoming increasingly obvious.as on You tube Torrent sites etc etc that many reviews are clearly FALSE.Its a shame but its a fact.
