Breakinger A Brilliant Conflict

Grimossfer Clever and entertaining enough to recommend even to members of the 1%

Bluebell Alcock Ok... Let's be honest. It cannot be the best movie but is quite enjoyable. The movie has the potential to develop a great plot for future movies

redrobin62-321-207311 This movie was NOT a 4.6 film. I don't know why it's rating is so low. 4.6 is the kind of rating you might see in a Lucifer Valentine, Uwe Boll, or Ed Wood film. When I think of 4.6, I think of August Underground and movies of that ilk. Really, when you think about it, if Exeter warrants a 4.6 so does Michael Haneke's Funny Games or Yorgos Lanthimos's Dogtooth which, incidentally, won the Prix Un Certain Regard at the 2009 Cannes Film Festival.For what it is, Exeter was well done. The ultra-violence was well done. Teenagers being a**hole teenagers was well done. Sure, the exorcism scenes were a bit cliché, as well as the frequent homages to Evil Dead, still, it was 90 minutes well spent. In all actuality, this movie is probably closer to a 6. I gave it a 7 to help balance out the negative reviews that propelled it's numbers to the depth of SyFy offerings. I think this movie would've done well in the cinemas, too. Maybe it's DirectTV debut was a mistake. Too bad.

suite92 The Three Acts:The initial tableaux: We get a triple bite opening. First a drug user gets killed after shooting up. That was quite short Second, we get horrid archival footage of the Exeter asylum's failed history as a mental institution, where children were killed en masse. It is rumoured to be haunted by the spirits of those slaughtered. Third, in modern times, the Exeter asylum is being renovated by a church. A number of strongly degenerate teens decide to have a drugs/drinks/smokes party at the asylum. Horror clichés dictate a lot of deaths later in the film.Delineation of conflicts: The youths vandalise the place, urinating and vomiting on the walls, dumping trash everywhere, and breaking fixtures. So it's the youths against whatever spirits they rouse by their attempt at levitation. Can this motley crew of useless teens manage to placate that which possesses Rory?Resolution: Do all of the teens die horribly, or just most of them?

an-obscure-movie-referen If you're in for a chuckle or two and you have a dark sense of humor this may be your speed. Think Army of the Dead but trying to be more serious and less cheesy. Honestly I've had this movie on my computer for the past two years listed as The Asylum and I spent a while looking for this. It's not a good horror/thriller but then again it's difficult to scare me. -Possession, overused theme and it's been warn out. I get it catholic church, possession's a thing, I don't buy it but I believe that you believe it's real -Decent roster of actors with a very generic plot line, they managed to make it "work". -Music choice was decentFor the music I give it a 3, and because I kept watching it. I in all good conscience don't believe anything other than The last air bender, Dragonball Evolution, Avatar, and from what I've heard the fantastic 4 reboot deserve less than a 3.But take my word for it, save yourself the time and skip this movie, all you really want to see is within the first minute or so. You're welcome.

spyroskonst I do not understand why this movie is so underrated. It's fun, entertaining and for a horror/gore fan it gets the job done pretty well.Not perfect by any means, but a nice film that kept me from beginning till the end. Did not get bored for one sec. Actors are good, editing, special effects and gore all done well. Again it is not perfect, but not that underrated i see here in IMDb. This is not a drama, or action adventure, so by judging it as a horror/gore film it falls between 6-8. No more or less than that.Do yourself a favor and check this out. It will not write history, but you will have a good 1.5hour watching this.
