Directed by Ted Campbell (Final Heist), who co-wrote the script with Richard Pierce, This Never Happened is all about Emily (María José De La Cruz) who is the next in her family's history of being able to see the dead. After all, her grandmother could as well and that's why she lived out her days alone in a mental hospital.
Emily goes with her boyfriend Matteo (Javier Dulzaides) to his father's funeral in Mexico City. Afterward, his mother Melora (Andrea Noli) tells him that the house will be sold in a few days. Matteo's friends - Olivia (Conny Cambambia), Ale (Juana Serrano) and Nica (Gonzalo Zulueta) - decide that one weekend in their old house would give them closure.
You know what happens next.
I mean, Matteo even says to Emily, "You forgot to take your pills."
Here are a few words of advice for the characters in this movie but well, they're all dead so it's hard to say, right? Don't go back home with your boyfriend. If his friends all seem like drug addicts and may have put drugs in your drink, don't trust them. If you can see the dead, maybe leave instead of dealing with that big toothed monster in the swimming pool. And if you buy Tarot cards, make sure they're not razor sharp, no matter how good the scene is, because you're going to die.
I think that Less Than Zero properly prepared me for a life of hating rich people. This movie is much the same, as they the thing that never happened is - spoiler warning - a girl being drugged and assaulted by several of them at a party in this same house. Now, her spirit wants revenge and is swimming in the pool, activated by those magic crystals that got thrown into the water. That's more advice. If you have magic objects, don't be throwing them into the pool.
Then again, I am all for rich kid comeuppance and this movie delivers on that. Tubi horror has been getting better and I'm hoping that a year from now, we'll all be amazed at just how far they've grown. Until then, this has a nice budget, an attractive cast and a scene where a blender leaks blood everywhere. Can you really ask more from free?
