Blucher One of the worst movies I've ever seen

Supelice Dreadfully Boring

Fairaher The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.

Hayleigh Joseph This is ultimately a movie about the very bad things that can happen when we don't address our unease, when we just try to brush it off, whether that's to fit in or to preserve our self-image.

felipe_maldonado_e The Woods is a short film by the YouTube channel Sugar Pine 7, arguably one the best channels out there. They make vlogs in a mockumentary-like way, which tend to reach some hilarious and creative peaks very often, putting them over many of the other vlogs or sketch focused channels.With that said, I was really interested and excited when I heard that SP7 were making a short film, noting the creativity that they had displayed on their regular YouTube content and also on their more serious stuff on the same medium (for example the end of season one "Akrasia" and the sort-of short film "Death Of A Water Warrior"), showing that the team had/has some notable skills at compelling acting, writing and directing in a more dramatic manner, plus pulling off some amazing cinematography along the way.With that being said, The Woods is, overall, what I expected. Letting me down in some aspects and really amazing me in others.The film revolves around a couple of friends who are about to spend the weekend at a cabin in the hoods, thing that ends up being, let's say, pretty deadly.I won't delve much into the plot, but it's a pretty standard slasher film, following quite firmly the genre tropes and mannerisms.So, some of the problems that this films faces I'd say are purely related to the writing and some of the acting (there are also some noticeable flaws with the sound mixing and editing, but minor nonetheless). Because of it being a short film, there's obviously no way to fit in characters backstories in a deep way, but for some reason they try to do this with some characters (for example Suptic's character relation with his dad and also the relationship of Mimi and Elliott; on both instances you never quite get how the characters "feel" towards the problems that the film shows us).In regards to the acting, James DeAngelis is pretty much the weakest (which is quite disappointing taking note of how compelling he was on the earlier mentioned Water Warriors video) along with some of Suptic scenes, with the most notable example being a scene were they're talking at a balcony, which just comes out as really awkward instead of emotional. But also on the note of acting, the absolute highlight is Mimi Torres, who despite having a not so well written character, she's emotionally compelling in every one of her scenes.Now on to the positives, the production design of the film is brilliant, along with the cinematography and the special effects work done on some scenes. If it wasn't for some clunky sound design, this would've been a pretty masterful short film on a technical level.In conclusion, this a really great first effort from Sugar Pine 7 on a production of this type, and I'm pumped to see what they can make in the future. Despite its flaws, this is a really enjoyable short and you should go and watch it.6,5/10 - Now being honest, the only problem of the film was its lack of Autumn. I love you Autumn.

miguel_marques-03247 I think 25 minutes was perfect! Objective story, no bs! In the beginning I was worried that the acting wouldn't be that good, but it turned out pretty good! Amazing work with the monster btw! Hope to see more of this in the future!It's not a perfect 10, not even a 9, but considering it's the first time doing something different like this I have to give it a solid 8! I may be a little bias, because I love this guys, so take that in consideration.

horace-02269 This is a viciously raw and stylistic piece of good classic horror, the fact that it was filmed in 3 days is incredible, this made me feel disturbed, horrified, and even made me laugh. The fact that you don't shy away from putting "IT" out in broad daylight and still get the feeling of genuine fear proves how well made and ballsy this amazing short is, you guys gave me my last little push to start writing a script for a short, thank you so much for doing what you love and inspiring me and other people to get out there and make things. I'm so happy for you guys and I hope this helps you out in some way, you deserve so much, my real review is 9.3 but I want to give something back to you.

ezralynch I, as a fifteen year old am terrified of horrors, i was thinking i would be peeing my pants while in reality it was not all that scary. I really liked and i was so pumped watching this. And the music choices were so satisfying.I was both relieved and disappointed at the end of this movie, i was relieved that the acting was a solid B- (Solid performances by Mimi Torres, Eliott Morgan and James Deangelis) The editing was an A and so were the more techinical aspects like sound design, music, lighting, visual effects and all that boogie - woogie.If you wanna watch this movie, don't go into it thinking you'll jump, because you will not. Will you laugh? Probably once... I'm actually not quite sure what this movie is.Is it a good movie? Oh hell yeah. Is it a good horror movie? oh it's a good attempt.Kudos to them for shooting this in 3 Days! Tip: Turn your brain off before watching this movie!I r8 a 7.5/10
