The Towel Man (2021) User Reviews

Oof, this was painful

[On_The_Mark · 1/10 · 17 November 2021]

Wow, this was just awful. More proof that literally anyone can make a "movie" and get it out there. This is not a good thing.

Bad acting, bad direction, terrible script - completely amateur production. The only good thing about this amateurfest was that it comes in about an hour.

You can tell a "movie" is going to be bad when all the "actors" involved have no other credits or credits with teh same "director" as well as NO pictures on their accounts, which is this cast.

I wanted to wear a towel around my head to shield me from this travesty just a few minutes in.

Is this a joke...?

How could this possibly have made it on Amazon Prime? Looks like it was shot on an old phone. Some films can have low production value but still have a good script and decent acting. Not this one. Bad acting. Terrible script assuming there was one. Whatever your impressions are after five minutes is as good as this gets. No, it doesn't get better.

Why all the bad reviews ?

[jezwood69 · 1/10 · 2 April 2022]

The best horror of recent years, amazing acting, strong story, and the plot is mesmerising. I cannot recommend this epic movie highly enough.

Now if you'll excuse me, I'm late for my medication and I have to be back in my padded cell.

Seriously, imagine a huge pile of s**t in a skip...remove it from the skip, take the skip away, and what you have left is everything connected with this sorry excuse of a movie.

I put myself through this agony so others don't have to. You'll thank me for it.

Must watch (Prank)

[djmike-63474 · 1/10 · 20 December 2021]

This is quite possible the worst movie I've ever sat through. I watched it with my therapist. When it was over, she needed therapy. One seen, we actually saw the camera man.

Please add subtitles, the audio is unbalanced and noisy (try denoise in video editing programs) camera quality was atrocious, consider getting a tripod for future films.

Does not scare

[therealljessemac · 1/10 · 11 April 2022]

This is a low budget psychological horror movie about a sexual pervert masked in a towel going from house to house to prey on females. Voice over narration is used to partly guide the movie; you need to listen hard before you understand what is been said.

A problem arises in this movie which is the brief alternation of documentary and normal dramatization, we wonder the purpose for that. Another is the sound editing which is noticeable poor and riddled with natures interference. Thirdly the story line is filled with lacunae and fast paced jumps, they are also some irrelevant conversations and the most meaningless is " video footage evidence on her door bell " If this movie is a horror movie as I believe it to be then it does not work at all it is just child's play and nothing else. Note to the director is come back later when you're ready to get a career in this field. If you want to see a bunch of amateur actors struggling to piece a picture together you can watch this movie if not don't try doing it.

Torture Movie ..Dont watch u need to be santise your eyes

The director reviewed his own mess

[itshudson · 1/10 · 11 February 2022]

You know it's bad when the director leaves a review in his own name on his own mess referring to himself in the 3rd person. Lmao!

I haven't even watched this and won't for obvious reasons. Just the trailer is the worst steaming hot garbage I've ever seen in my entire life.

Don't waste your time

[billalex-85627 · 1/10 · 21 February 2023]

I've seen better acting at a middle school musical. The cast is terrible, the story is weak, the sound is horrific, the 'special effects' were lousy and the "towel man" is very sad. What's with all the blurry, half baked, film? Is it supposed to make us believe that it's part documentary? If you believe any of the "glowing reviews"... please check yourself in to be psychologically evaluated. I hate that I have to write 600 words to make this post. Run, don't walk, as far as you can away from this movie. I've seen some terrible movies but none have sent me to write a terrible review as much as this movie.

Disgusting on every level

[mattguinard · 1/10 · 7 February 2023]

The camera work is low quality. The acting is the worst I've seen since The Room. The audio is all over the place but clearly done by amateurs.

The subject matter is pretty serious and not at all funny, but as poorly acted as it is... It comes across as almost comedic. This movie is absolute hot garbage and no one involved should be out of therapy for having participated.

Overall, this was easily the worst movie I have seen in sometimes. I'm somewhat of a connoisseur of bad films but this wasn't even entertainment. It was a messy, poorly done wreck of a film and I feel that it may have permanently lowered my IQ.

Best movie of the year candidate no doubt.

[dpetricioli · 9/10 · 7 May 2022]

From the acting, all the way to the plot, this movie had everything you look for in a modern day horror film. It really had me on the edge of my seat as I was wondering whether the villain would ever get caught. Although there were some questionable film decisions and techniques used, the movie as a whole left me satisfied and happy. The movie definitely made me feel some type of way, I know Izzy would agree 👀.

Terrible

[ranels-71802 · 1/10 · 8 June 2023]

Seriously? What was this filmed with? VHS tape? The camera man has a nervous twitch at times. There is no acting, just amateurs trying to be actors. The rape scenes are quirky, unrealistic, and just down right stupid. The sound is hollow and poorly recorded. The writing is that of a third grader (and I am being generous). I assume this is a self funded film with volunteer pseudo actors. Clearly made by high schoolers or lower. Don't waste your time, money, eyesight, etc. I should also mention that this film is only 69 minutes long and that is 75 minutes too long. If the writer and director thought they had Hollywood careers, think again.

Pretty Dire

[dabmim · 1/10 · 17 July 2023]

I was itching to turn this off from five minutes in, given its 1970's porn film feel. I can only assume this extremely low budget film was made by primary children. The acting was stiff and emotionless, and the storyline while being OK, could have been so much more.

I get it that film makers don't have huge budgets, top actors, or great sets, but this film was genuinely something I think should be relegated to the trash can.

And do we find out who the towel man is? No, instead we are left believing he (or she) is about to begin another film, heaven help us.

And the titles were in a font that is difficult to read.

Waste of time....

[bren-87576 · 1/10 · 9 May 2022]

Sorry a$$ excuse for a movie, for real. No one could act to save their lives. The storyline was stupid af. What a waste of time. Anyone giving this $hitshow more than 1 star is doing it out sheer pity or they know the clowns who put this together.

one of the best films ever.

[rsouthernhall · 10/10 · 26 May 2022]

Everything about this film is amazing, the quality is absolutely unreal. Such a fantastic underground movie. 10/10. I will be talking about this for a very long time, please watch.

Best Movie Ever

[jsgillespie-94347 · 10/10 · 7 May 2022]

This was hands down the most creative movie I have ever watched. I recommend watching it with friends, it makes the experience so much more enjoyable.
