Earworm (I) (2024)
2/10
Boring...
26 February 2024
I had not heard about the 2024 horror movie "Earworm" from writer and director Kyle Kleege prior to sitting down to watch it. But I must admit that the title and cover was interesting, and with it being a horror movie that I hadn't already seen, of course I needed no persuasion to sit down and give the movie a fair chance.

The storyline and narrative in "Earworm" proved to be amazingly dull. The narrative was slow paced, and there wasn't anything interesting happening. And I have to admit that I gave up on finish watching the movie, because I was bored senseless 22 minutes into the ordeal.

I wasn't familiar with a single actor or actress on the cast list in "Earworm", and that is actually something I do enjoy when I sit down to watch a movie. It is nice to see new faces and talents on the screen, and not accidentally associate them with characters portrayed in other movies.

This movie failed to entertain me on all levels, and this is definitely not a movie that I will be returning to attempt finish watching. Suffering through 22 minutes of nothingness was bad enough, so why prolong the torment with with another 79 minutes? If you are a horror fan, don't waste your time, money or effort on this one.

My rating of "Earworm" lands on a very generous two out of ten stars, and that is based on the fact that the acting performances that I witnessed throughout the 22 minutes I suffered through were actually not bad. But there just wasn't anything to entertain me in the script and storyline, so writer and director Kyle Kleege dropped the ball here.
