The Windmill Massacre (2016)
It is kinda of interesting but
Too slow a beginning
when the killer appears, the movie shows everything, so no surprises.
the little twist below * is also revealed way too early
unlikeable characters - who:
don´t believe anything when are warned so the plot can roll
are lazy so the plot... for instance can´t look for help even if it is a short walk, can´t look for missing people, can´t see if her sister is in the trailer before setting it ablase...
arrogant, violent so the plot...
don´t speak when they need to convey the information, so the plot ..
Basically, it needed a professional screenwriter to make a second draft
Fear, Inc. (2016)
At least is creative
Everytime you think you "got" the movie, it has a twist and got a lot worst. It is not your average "oh, I subscribed to a service that turn out to be real". Nooo, it is much worse, and the characters more annoying
Chernobyl Diaries (2012)
It could be much better, if the writer were not so lazy
Specially with dialog and conflict.
You know, many people still believe stupid things like "oh, in horror the characters should figh" because Romero did that in the 60s.
No, they may, but they shouldn´t specially being dumb. Being dumb make your charachter unlikable and difficult to relate. Dumb characters are a sign of a lazy writer who couldn´t scalate the situation organically.
Scene that made my eyes roll - whe ready to come back to safety, the car breaks, it is night.
-guide: the checkpoint is 20 km
character: let´s go hiking (at night)
(please notice that they were almost eaten by a bear during the day time, but stupid character 1 wants to go hiking at night in unknown territory with bears and wolves)
same scene 1 minute later
they hear what seems to be a human cry
guide - stay here (takes a gun)
stupid character 2 - wow, wow, wow, why the gun.
guide gets out of the car with the gun for unknown reasons
stupid character 2 gets out of the car
brother of C2 - chris I am coming with you!
C2 (whinny, think 5 year old ) - I don´t want you to come up with me.
Then goes to the darkness with obvious consequences.
How are you suppose to relate to such bad written dialogue and actions? There is simply no horror when you wish your characters to die. It is not a slasher for you to cheer for the killer
The Triangle (2016)
Imagine midsummer but without money or talent
Wow, another movie with a 4,9 stars in imdb that you can´t understand why is so high... in short summary this film has
no money, resources or actors (found footage)
no story ("ambiguous" ending)
there is really no plot but the cult disappears
A documentary team (again) go to a cult (this is almost 20 minutes). Everything takes a long time. At the end, everybody goes to rapture
Clown Motel: Spirits Arise (2019)
Are we grading on a curve?
Fun exercise... enter into the 9 and 10 stars review and try to count how many of them happens to evaluate only this movie.
First scene - good scenery but camera man already cuts the top of the heads
The Dark Tapes (2016)
average found footage
Film is not that bad, is in the average of found footage. The shell story has some strange ideas about supernatural, the third story about aliens is the most elaborate.the first is the most dumb, because of a twist because of twist sake.
1st Summoning (2018)
It could be better
Yes it is just a found footage with all the same elements. At this point is just like a rom com, the movie has already been made several times, we want to see how the particular elements mix and match.
It could be good. In the church there was an eerie atmosphere and a creepy priest, but...
Ryan is the only one that you can relate to, and whose actor is really trying to, despite the movie he is in. I hope he got better things in the future.
The guy with the broken foot is just a prop. He is there to hold the camera so the other 3 characters can act. Many times I think the story forgot he exists.
Mark - just annoying. Don´t know if the actor is very bad or very good to be unlikable. Wanted to slap him in the face since first moment. Also a non character, he is just a jurk. Non reedeming qualities, he just really, really wanna make this film so he will keep the plot rolling. The "surprise" in the end is kinda dumb because no one care about Mark.
Leslie - she is just "the bitch" sorry. Although she is in some moments likable, she will sometimes be the slut "oh, I love, no I don´t love you anymore" to keep the "love triangle" thingy.
Against the Night (2017)
And the assassin in the abandon prison is... (spoiler alert)
Movie production had a creepy prison to film in, but didn´t have the talent to transform the amazing set into a suspenseful film.
Annoying youngsters go to a prison to make reality tv. They are separated from their cell phones. One of the characters in a douche. People scream all the time and try to not convey relevant information to others, like there is a killer on the loose.
The big surprise is the identity of the killer (spoilers)
