Cathardincu Surprisingly incoherent and boring

SpuffyWeb Sadly Over-hyped

UnowPriceless hyped garbage

Kidskycom It's funny watching the elements come together in this complicated scam. On one hand, the set-up isn't quite as complex as it seems, but there's an easy sense of fun in every exchange.

ASouthernHorrorFan With a kickoff more familiar to low budget black opd, I Spy movies, "The Rift: Dark Side Of The Moon" sluggishly and clumsily starts out. It is a beginning that feels forced into plotline and makes for a questionable start. I just knew I was gonna check out before the story really took off. Oddly enough , I hung in and found myself curiously intrigued, much like waiting for a train wreck.Once "The Rifts" concept takes murky shape, and the sci-fi tropes really become centerstage, the film becomes a managabe, all be it, mediocre experience. The acting stays choppy, and filled with over acting and melodrama. Oddly enough it starts to actually work in the film's favor. Much like many of the bad but good episodes of the reboot to "Outer Limits" back in the day.The special effects are mixed with almost trance influenced psychedelic CGI moments, and very horror inspired practical effects reminiscent of Lovecraft adaptations. Pick one. Overall I ended "The Rift" entertained, impressed even. What starts as a hot mess, so I thought, rebounds into a neat lowbudget ride into a little slice of Hell.

eaeagle This movie has the worst score I've ever heard in my entire life. It bears no resemblance to the plot and fails to evoke any emotions in the viewer other than confusion and irritation. Beyond that, Ken Foree's acting has the emotional range of plywood. Swearing and flailing are not a replacement for character development. Don't waste your time with this movie.

chamberscory221 Description was right up my alley but that's where it ended lol horrible experience

cliftongop If this was a good example of science fiction, I'm going to give up on SF and watch the Hallmark Channel with my wife. I hardly know where to start, but let's try continuity--there wasn't any.The music was low-budget and almost always loud with little variety or nuance, mostly electric guitar I think. People were murdered and came back to life and I have no idea why or how. A child survived when one side of his face was hanging loose after being chopped by an axe. Two people jumped from a window less than 20 feet high and they get up, limping badly--until they were chased they could run up a long flight of ouyside open stairs in the dark.If you like gore, this is the movie for you. Men, women and children were shot, beaten, gored, axed or impaled at regular intervals.There was some kind of purple ring. You could reach through to another time or dimension or something. This was supposed to be a sci-fi movie, but there was no logic, science or coherent plot.The overacting was outrageous. The cast took turns yelling about almost everything. Since everyone was doing it, I guess they were directed that way.Whoever the heroes were and however they were supposed to connected, there was always someone breaking off from the group to explore, just like it was a 1980s horror movie where the girl wearing only her underwear wandered off and always got killed.What was it about?. Well, one of the guys had been on the moon 35 years ago, He died there, and now he's back on earth and he's alive to haunt his fellow astronaut who is a member of this merry group. I didn't get much more than that, or why everyone was killing each other. It was hard to tell who the good and bad guys were.I kept waiting for the big reveal to put it all together. It never came.That's 1.5 hours of my life that I'll never get back.
