Reviews

Beystiman It's fun, it's light, [but] it has a hard time when its tries to get heavy.
Huievest Instead, you get a movie that's enjoyable enough, but leaves you feeling like it could have been much, much more.
Erica Derrick By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.
Sienna-Rose Mclaughlin The movie really just wants to entertain people.
Leofwine_draca EMPTY ROOMS is yet another indie haunted house flick utterly devoid of any horror content or even any suspense. Bad camerawork abounds in the story of a single mother who moves into a haunted place with her autistic kid, where absolutely nothing proceeds to happen. It's all about wooden acting and trite dialogue and nothing in between.
Paul Magne Haakonsen "Empty Rooms" is more of a drama than it is a horror movie. I wasn't fully aware of that when I sat down to watch this movie, so it was somewhat of a disappointing experience for me, as I had expected somewhat more scary from the movie.The movie is about a single mom who moves to a new house with her autistic son. However, the boy is not fond of staying in the house and is drawing a strange, naked man. Soon things start to happen to the mom and the son starts hiding in the basement. It turns out that the house is not empty at all.Storywise, then the horror in the movie was really tame and rather dull. In this aspect, the movie progressed in a really slow and dull pace, and the events taking place weren't really scary.However, if you look at the movie from the drama aspect, the story dealing with a single mom's struggle to raise an autistic child by herself, then the story was actually good enough, it had potential, but it was initially worn thin and stampeded by the 'horror' element.As far as the acting go, then people were really doing good jobs with their given roles and characters, and this is what makes the movie somewhat bearable to sit through.The synopsis says: 'A single mother and her mute, autistic son are terrorized by supernatural entities in this haunting story of love, loss and the occult.' - if that was to be the case of the movie, then these entities had mightily physical manifestations. And you don't really believe them to be supernatural entities at all."Empty Rooms" receives a 4 out of 10 stars rating from me, given the acting and the drama part of the movie. I think the 'horror' element was an anchor weighing down the movie, because it was anything but scary or disturbing.
flitz35 Reading the 5 reviews I had good expectations of watching a well made ghost horror movie. I was very disappointed. I wasn't scared once and was waiting for this mess to end. The 5 other reviewers only reviewed this movie telling me it's individuals who are affiliated with the making of this movie. Not plot not scares and horrible acting is what wasted 90 mins of my time and this is coming from someone who loves a good ghost story and is always non partial when reviewing a movie. I have learned my lesson. I will do my research instead the reviewers before and not after I watch a movie with unusually great reviews. Thanks for reading.
littlesister1006 The story lulls you in to a somewhat peaceful state and then suddenly you have the crap scared out of you in the blink of an eye. This is a tremendous psychological thriller about a mother and her autistic and mute son. Maddie mother wants to make a change in her and her sons Jonah's life. She buys and beautiful house in the suburbs. As her sons behavior slowly changes, she still does not realize the secrets this pleasant looking house still has for her and son. Adam was able get grab the feel of many of the psychological thrillers of the 70s. He has chosen the perfect house for the setting of this thriller. Casting of the actors was superb for this shocker! Can't wait to see what he has in store for us with his next movie! Loved it
