The worst and most comical revenge movie ever made
KillerRomance14 December 2019
First off, always show "in the memory of Grandma" at the end credits, not at the introduction. Only less than a second to read two sets of paragraphs on the turn of events before the movie started. Gentle and smart boy, loved by girls and bullied by three murderous dumb goons, the leader of the bullies acting like early 80's Tom Cruise. Reminds me of the better movie, The Night of the Scarecrow, only this is worse for many reasons: 1) why don't these so-called friends of David call the police and Security after he is found bloodied up and assaulted on the spot? 2) It is illogical for the leader of the bullies to have a business in three years, don't care how much his father's I worth desperate that we heard he passed away recently. 3) The female detective wears low buttoned shirts for the thristy director 4) the poor dialogue and script written by a thristy director such as "hot piece of ass" included 5) there is hammering sound effects at the intro as it displays "written, directed and produced by this thirsty Guy, no I am not kidding! 6) I know it's paranormal but this movie defies the laws of physics, watch the scene of basketballs because even the cast is questioning this ha ha ha ha. 7) I never met a girl from India with a strong accent and not a shred of American breeding to have an Anglo Saxon full name and there is a body part around her head that is so distracting, plus she played with her hair like a five year old in the classroom 8) the scenes are funny, don't know if they are supposed to be but they are hilarious 9) First time in history a Cop in Uniform has an Air Force badge! No seriously it's true 10) " what did the attacker looked like?" Asked one Law Enforcer, the Girlfriend of the Leader Bully who was in the car can describe the Ghost but how does her boyfriend the former bully of David know he has a tattoo when he has not seen him and looking at the engine of the car with the hood up?

Strange movie, it's not even scary, it's like a poor students project movie and bad acting skills from the cast, the Director should reconsider making movies in the future. Watch The Night of the Scarecrow which is a better supernatural thriller and horror, the director probably ripped off this movie, skip this one but if you want your life wasted then enjoy, but don't say I didn't warn you. I want to give it zero stars, does not deserve one at all.

Poor, but had to keep watching
iainmcleod_80010 November 2019
Where to start...the acting was terrible from almost everyone. The guy who played Leo was probably best. The storyline was ok if ghosts are your thing, but script was so poor and there was zero chemistry between anyone. I was physically shaking my head at some scenes...but for some reason i had to keep watching to see if the bullies got what was coming to them. My recommendation is to not start watching

The worst movie ever

Everything is wrong with this movie. Just one plus is the hot actor playing the bad guy.

What did I just watch??

Warning: Spoilers
Okay, firstly, I LOVE a good revenge horror. This is not one. Secondly, yes, I found this movie by accident and just had to watch it with a title like that! And that, really, is where the horror started for me.

From start to finish, this film is just awful. Previous reviewers have commented on the detectives low cut top and that really just about sums this up. The director obviously decided that she was the best thing in the film so you get lots of rather too close footage of her.

There is nothing redeeming about this film. No scares, no threat, no intrigue (aside from why the hell the pathologist suddenly gains an eye patch but maybe I missed that in all the nonsense).

Also, the title. It has nothing to do with Down's Syndrome, it has no character called Down and it doesn't appear in a town or area called Down. The character of David is potentially autistic but that's never really clarified. If, as I suspect, they couldn't find an actor with Down's and just decided "near enough is good enough", that elevates this piece from something awful to something truly heinous. The lack of understanding shown in this casting is just plain horrific.

Even if you don't follow my theory in the last paragraph, I still implore you to stay away from this movie. I tried so hard to find a redeeming factor but with underdeveloped characters, an appalling narrative and poorly shot & put together, there's little here.

I ENJOYED IT... Great Supernatural Element Added!
bronzesrv28 February 2024
I thought the movie was awesome! It had more of a 80s feel to it. I was surprised it was only made in 2020. I started not to watch it at first, because I hate bullying, in real life & on TV. But I hung in there to see the bad guys get their asses whipped. I was not disappointed, it will piss you off though. The young man being picked on is a special needs child so that makes you more angry. It really was a great film in my opinion. It's a Tubi movie, so of course it's not gonna be perfect lol, I'm glad I gave it a chance. I love the supernatural element to it. It was also very lengthy, I'm talking two hours, lol. The bad guys were the worst! The character David, who played the special-needs boy, was absolutely adorable! He really pulls at your heartstrings a bit. What also irritated me was, to be bullied so badly like that and nobody did a damn thing, it was really extreme. But I know that's how it is in real life as well. It also had a plot twist that I wasn't expecting. I will be looking for other movies that the character David was in. Nicholas Alexander was his name.
