ThiefHott Too much of everything
Grimossfer Clever and entertaining enough to recommend even to members of the 1%
Mandeep Tyson The acting in this movie is really good.
Phillida Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.
montage-69288 Definitely wasn't impressed by this movie but I did manage to watch it through to the end. The dark, murky aspect fails, mostly because it is too much of the movie and it is rather boring. They tried to throw a twist in but I mean, nah...
betlamed I won't say this is completely awful, as the acting is somewhat decent, but that's about it.A couple have lost their son. A young woman knocks at their door, followed by sinister people wearing strange gas masks.The motives of those folks remain unclear right till the end, when the movie makers cheat their audience with the most clichéd cheat of a plot-twist ever. Is that a spoiler now? I'm not sure. I guess, to those who know what I'm talking about, it won't be a secret at about ten minutes into the movie, anyway.On top of all that, look at the couple's last name. Bruhahaha.See where this is going? Yes, you guessed right. Extremely popular movies with great casts have succeeded in pulling this off, with the greatest names in the business attached to them.In comparison, this feels like the ambitious work of film students in their first semester. It's like they just haven't seen enough movies yet to know that every fan of the horror genre will see right through it.Then there's the question of why the husband needed to be a writer, why the invaders had to wear gas masks, and why they put a fracking chandelier up in the woods. Unresolved subplots - bad writing.The only reason I watched it till the end, only skipping a third of it along the way, was because I still hoped - against my own judgment - that it might turn out better this time. That, and I was sick in bed and had nothing else to do anyway.
movieman_kev A couple who had recently lost a son finds themselves targeted by a group of unknown criminals who appear to be after not only them, but a girl that they saved by letting into their house after her car breaks down earlier.This reasonably well-acted tense horror film kept my interest through most of it's run time. I found myself enjoying it more than i expected to, everything was going well enough, But then the ending rears its ugly head and completely obliterates what good will I had for the film. Because of this I can't really bring myself to recommend it to anyone save the least discerning horror-phile amongst you.My Grade: D+
OJT As the title gives away, this film is kind of static. That means in this case slow paced. However, it is well done, and able to both get your feeling flowing. Emotion, sadness, fear. It's all here, but if you expect some kind of standard film, you won't find it here. It's not a horror, it's not a thriller and not sci-fi or gore. It's a strange little piece, and it's well made. I can't say more without giving away spoilers.I found this both well played, it's scary and creepy. The sound editing is first class. I would say this is a well made film on a small budget.We meet a couple which is torn to pieces of the loss of their dead three year old child. She is bothered with nerve problems, and he seems like he holding the grip. But he starts to hear sounds. One night the open the door for a young woman, obviously very afraid of something out there in the dark. She just got a flat tire, and heard weird clicking sounds, and she saw some using gas masques.Sound is a powerful tool when you make movies. Here I find this used to max extent, which lifts the scariness of this a lot. Then the film loses both tension and believability, midways. A good premise is lost. But then it picks up a good thread in the end again. The end will not satisfy all, other will find it smart.Interesting from talented new film maker. Music is good, so is the idea. Well worth a watch, if you don't mind a slow paced drama with thrilling parts.Some says this is a remake of the French film "Them" from 2006. I don't know. I haven't seen that.
