Stay Out of the F**king Attic (2020) User Reviews

Mediocre tale that tries but fails.

[jmbovan-47-160173 · 4/10 · 16 March 2021]

Three ex-cons work as movers. Unfortunately, the house they are doing today contains some unexpected elements. Low brow attempt at a creature feature fails to evoke a true sense of that, and the plot is even murkier as it blends in an unnecessary twist element. Some attempt at social commentary goes poorly as the movie doesn't hold enough smarts to replicate the basics of the genre it is trying to be. Not horrid but nothing really much to see.

It's a miss. Big shame.

[future_release · 4/10 · 30 March 2021]

I was hoping the reviews were wrong but alas they aren't and this is a sad miss of a horror movie.

It wasn't terrible, just bad in lots of ways and quite ludicrous that it veers towards parody. Not totally wasted but close to it.

I've got one question

[LucaMR1991 · 3/10 · 25 March 2021]

Was that supposed to be a parody? Cause aside from some decent practical effects, which managed to be genuinely creepy, the characters were the most stereotypical and racially charged I've ever seen. Other than that, the movie had horrible acting, uneven pacing, a largely uninteresting story and quite a few unnecessary and fake jump scares.

Good try.......but still a swing and a miss

[mattratt-42427 · 2/10 · 29 May 2021]

While I applaud this movie for being different than the typical shudder slasher or any other "horror" movie in the last 20 years it still misses the mark. Im a great fan of 70's 80's horror but since then nothing has really hit the spot. The female actor totally over acts her character. I thought all the other actors were fine. Not a bad plot. The human experiment monsters and double sisters were done well. But just like the horror movies that have been coming out lately it sucks you in with promosing start and fails to deliver any kind of twist or purpose for why it was made.

Skip it

[markkaz-15904 · 3/10 · 14 March 2021]

Just not good. Boring story. Theres so much better horror out there, I wouldnt waste my time with this if I hadn't already.

Lead actor stiff acting

[christysandersb · 4/10 · 18 March 2021]

It's ok. Acting needed some help. If theres nothing else to watch than you can watch this.

Another Shudder Dud

[stuartmconde · 2/10 · 27 May 2021]

Why are shudder originals so bad? Why did this movie need four writers? That's right, FOUR WRITERS!! You'd be forgiven for thinking they found the script in a bin.

This kind of thing has been done better elsewhere. All the lazy racial cliches and stereotypes are present and correct which is what I've come to expect from shudder. Not quite sixth form drama level as Netflix but not far off. The characters are so one dimensional that it's impossible to care about what happens to them.

As with Netflix, If it's a shudder original then it's probably gonna suck and this is no exception.

VERY VERY VERY BAD ACTING !

[joe_jurianto · 2/10 · 14 August 2021]

Plot is easily guessed, but that's not the downfall of this movie. What really brings this movie down to unbearable to watch is the acting and the logic in this movie. Very very bad acting. I can't get through more than 30 minutes of this movie.

Bloody fantastic

[tracy1011 · 9/10 · 26 September 2022]

The other reviews have no taste whatsoever in horror movies. They must be millennial's or political correct people who have no taste at all It's very original and great acting.

I disagree with the reviews, I loved everything about this movie 🎥 Shutters original always deliver great horror movies. Me and my friend enjoyed it very much it had gore and heroes and great horror. Also stay watching until after the credits there's a little surprise, I won't tell you any spoilers you would have to watch to find out. Stick with it and I hope you enjoy it. It's not a blockbuster so you don't have to be so hash on your reviews.thanks guys.

I see what they were going for! It MOSTLY works!

[jorgito2001 · 6/10 · 13 March 2021]

Only problem is getting through the first 40 minutes of the movie filled with lots of "fluff", but once it gets going, it gets going! I see this is Jerren Lauder's directorial debut, so I'll give him the benefit of the doubt given what looks like a low budget, it gets good at the end. Stick around for an after credit scene!

Horrible

[patrickkeown · 1/10 · 14 March 2021]

If you're interested in watching a slow movie about a bunch of movers on a job, then this is the one for you. Otherwise, keep looking.

Are you guys for real?

[schamarande · 1/10 · 3 April 2021]

Seriously though. I set out to watch it right after 'Dawn of The Beast' and you guys managed to do worse than the former joke.

Stay Outta This Movie

[jeroduptown · 4/10 · 29 August 2021]

The "attic" contains a chick from "human centipede", a skinhead, a nazi doc doing experiments, and other racially trite characters in it.

Should be called: Don't watch this Stupid Movie! :o

[midnitepantera · 2/10 · 2 May 2021]

I watched this for the cool, creepy house, only reason you see 2 stars instead of zero above. The acting was not very good, the story just got more and more stupid as it went along. Cliché bad horror choices, Like insisting on sticking around, instead of running for your life when things start getting weird and creepy. Pass on this, could have been interesting, but skipped on straight to stupid and unbelievable. :(

I Didn't Hate It

[davidsask · 5/10 · 17 March 2021]

I liked the last quarter so worth watch for that. Certainly nothing new but okay for specialty movie channel. I would watch a sequel.

the movie equivalent of eating rice

[warehousereviews · 4/10 · 2 December 2021]

Like I said its like eating rice... you know your eating, your getting full but theres no enjoyment or flavour in it...

Dont rush out and watch this, theres better short movies on Alter than this.

Don't believe the hate

[krebsposse · 8/10 · 4 April 2021]

It's much better than what many reviews say. Needed to be more polished in some areas. A couple of plot holes, but it's way better than others recent genre flicks.

Fun and worth it!

[anapsousa · 6/10 · 13 March 2021]

I don't get the bad ratings, I thought it was pretty good. Yes, it was uneven at times. And it's not going to reinvent the genre or going to win any awards but it had some decent scares and I loved the ending!

Cellphone

[jlee0910 · 2/10 · 27 March 2021]

They all had cellphones. One person call 911. Nothing else to say.

Not thought out

[kathmummybear · 2/10 · 12 March 2022]

The whole film is badly thought out ,the dialogue and the actions of the characters make no sense at all im not sure if it's the direction or the editing which really see it lingering on scenes that go no where and add nothing .don't waste your time it's dreadful.

Its truely are seeable

[gurrasnurrakurra · 5/10 · 24 April 2021]

It was not a great movie. Very weak manus and a bad dialogues. But it wasn't a waste of one and a half houre. If you like splatter movies you should see it.

A little fun

[ahmedpayoumi · 5/10 · 13 March 2021]

But I do not know when the Nazi war file was opened again. Was this actually happening from human trials? I know about destructive gases and weapons, but messing with genes! Also the movie is very bloody nerve tension plus but frankly I don't recommend this movie.

Better than I expected !

[kel-31636 · 6/10 · 2 April 2021]

With all that's happened in the world, fewer quality movies were being made. From there, we adjusted our expectations. English, check, sound quality, check, lighting, passable, acting, no one I've heard of but they seem to be holding their own. Ok, this gets the movie past the auto-kill stage. Enough mystery to make me want to know what's the problem with the attic. Get past the 30 minute mark and it jumps off. This pace carries straight through to the end. Some parts made me squeamish, but overall a good story, well executed.

Uninteresting

[borgolarici · 3/10 · 2 May 2022]

The start isn't all that bad: creepy house, creepy old man and a main trio that's a bit stereotyped but not entirely dislikeable. It drags on a bit however, and when the villain finally reveals himself, things get too over the top and we delve into C-movie territory. There's gore and some monsters but nothing interesting.

a viewable beastlike...

[ops-52535 · 6/10 · 16 March 2021]

Horror movie, with chimes of the past and so real good jump scare techniques. its an old house that needs refurbishment but there a two deadzones that the workers aint allowed to set foot in, and that is really the story. youll stay engaged i can assure you and should you be squemish on the genre, try it anyway because its a slow starter that take you into the realms of pain and agony.

its a small cast product , acting works as prescribed, the editing and soundwork couldve been better but the sound and scream effect depts done a good job. so if your into the moving business do reconsider after watching this flick. its fresh and kick like a sordid horse do. a little recommend from the grumpy old man
