Terror Talk (2018) User Reviews

Lost its way by the end.

[MikeHunt1075 · 4/10 · 25 September 2018]

A story about a guy who is staying in a house and discovers a CB radio that he pretends to be the previous owner of as a joke, but soon takes a twist he cannot escape as he discovers the house is haunted and he cannot leave due to a virus outside.

The movie starts off ok, and sucks you in enough to keep you watching, but then all of a sudden it's like the script writer left the project and they just ad-libbed whatever nonsense came to their head from then on. It had potential, but shoots itself in the head by the end. Both l.a.f. It gets a bit too clustered by the end and makes little sense.

Overall, see it if it interests you, but you won't kick yourself if you never see it.

The dullest you'll ever see

[Leofwine_draca · 1/10 · 23 September 2018]

TERROR TALK is a mindlessly boring indie post-apocalypse horror film that consists entirely of a guy sitting at his desk and talking for the entire running time. Yep, I'm not kidding. Our protagonist is a 'doomsday prepper' who retreats into his base during a viral epidemic; from that point on, the story takes place entirely throughout dialogue. Eventually there's a twist ending of sorts, but this is extremely dull stuff, the dullest you'll ever see, in fact.

One man shuttered n his house goes to pieces. Is there a virus raging outside? Is the house being haunted? Is he a murderer? Is he mentally challenged? The film would be better at an hour rather than 90 minutes as it starts to get repetitious two thirds of the way through. Sean Michael Gloria performs convincingly as Kenny, solely onscreen for most of the running time, portraying well the dissolution of his sanity and the director gives some good creepy moments. It builds up atmospherically but alas the climax lets the film down. A shaggy dog story that bit off more than it could chew.

Mind fook

I have watched this film twice now and I do not think it is anything about ghosts it is seemed to be a schizophrenic episode and all of the people he's talking to on the CB radio are his alter egos.

better than expected

A strange insight into guilt and trauma. See it as a haunted house and you miss the point. The guy is clearly a psycho but his conscience is gradually getting the better of him, and ultimately gets revenge. Wondered about the virus bit, and thought this would be the usual survivor drivel, but an interesting twist on that. Worth a watch for the gradual degradation of his mind, which from a mental care perspective is interesting.
