Reviews

Spoonatects Am i the only one who thinks........Average?
Taha Avalos The best films of this genre always show a path and provide a takeaway for being a better person.
Zandra The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.
Philippa All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
texicanwife Wake the Witch NR/ 113 Min./ CC The Orchard/ English Director/ Screenwriter: Dorothy Booraem Stars: Rachel Lien Martin Kenna Pete LipinsDebbie and her friends go to Wilderness Park, where they inadvertently waken a witch. Hanged for crimes as a witch, and bound to the park by chains, her curse comes to life. Will Debbie and her friends survive? Or will they all die under the terrible curse?Decent acting skills. Better budget shows. I give this Five Stars.And a Thumbs Up for story line.
wlvryn i seriously cannot understand all the negative reviews of this Gorgeous Work.it's almost as if those "reviewers" either haven't actually watched it or are simply too used to the usual banal "hollywood" gore-fests & "subtle-as-a-brick-to-the-face" clichés that they couldn't cope with the intrinsic Dreaminess & slow-building momentum of this quite deep Gem.& as for the "lack of continuity" & "incoherent scene changes" alluded to in those reviews?well i can only surmise that those viewers either simply have short attention spans or limited deductive reasoning, (or some "ax to grind"), as i thought it held together wonderfully, & that the vast majority of the acting throughout was both sincere & warmly portrayed, with even quite exploratory character depth & relationships that were more "intuitive" than blatantly "walk-through elaborations", Beautifully filmed, & generally all round an Artistic (not "arty") offering. Really worth curling up in front of & just allowing the movie to take you along on it's eerie journey, & i'll watch it again no doubt, something i hardly ever do. :)
captaincameron Holy God, this is one terrible film. In all due respect to those of you who have written positive reviews, you're wrong. The pace is mind-bogglingly slow. The acting is abysmal. Normally in a low budget flick with bad acting, there is some eye candy on the screen, but the casting director clearly thought that bland-faced, flat-chested, and fat was the way to go with the lead. And those are the good points. Bad things happen in the woods. HINT: Stay out of the woods, dummy. But if your friends have disappeared, sometimes you have to go into the woods. And then come out unscathed. And back and forth and back and forth. I don't want to spoil the ending. I want to encourage you not to even start the film. But if you do make it to the end, you'll find yourself thinking "WTF have I done to myself? Why, Lord, why did you make me sit through an hour and 52 minutes of this horse crap?" And I'm being nice.
herbiehusker13 Since the dawn of cinema, certain movies have proved themselves to be masterpieces, worthy not only of repeated viewing, but of the highest praise from all who watch. Sadly, Wake the Witch falls nowhere near this category. In fact, to locate it in the same zip code; neigh, the same hemisphere as that type of distinction would be a gross injustice. To truly understand the depth of the worthlessness of this movie requires one to not only sit through the entire mind-numbing 114 minutes of wasted film, but to also attempt to pay attention for that span of time. Such a task proves impossible for even the most enthusiastic of terrible-movie-enthusiasts.It is one thing for a movie to not reveal its main plot for over an hour. It's an entirely other thing to do so when that plot is pointless, convoluted, and the hour-plus of waiting contains no action. Not only that, but to subject the audience to the added torture of watching the the female lead enter forests, get chased by zombie Abercrombie models, creep through houses, and get hit on by a borderline pedophile time after time after time is simply criminal. The one redeeming quality of this movie is that viewers in Lincoln could recognize some of the filming locations- small comfort, though, considering that if one tried to explain what plot points happened at these locations there would really be no answer besides "I don't know." That this movie is the worst I may ever see is a given, and to say that it is a waste of time is an understatement. Jesus Christ himself would be hard pressed to love anything about this movie other than the fact that it ends.To sum it up concisely, Wake the Witch sucks.
