That was an excellent one.
SERIOUSLY. This is what the crap Hollywood still puts out?
disgusting, overrated, pointless
It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.
The film follows your classic home break-in formula with bad guy terrorizes home owner, home owner gets upper hand and terrorizes invader, then a fight to the death. Sorry for the plot spoiler if you have never seen a home break-in film. There are some minor twists from the norm, but really doesn't bring anything unique to the table. I thought the acting and dialog could have been better. Low budget, okay for the genre, but there are far better. Kill Bill child actor Perla Haney-Jardine as an adult. Guide: F-word. No sex or nudity.
Its actually pretty amazing, that this crew made a movie with this kind of cinematic quality, when they didnt give two sharts about the story or character development. Its a clusterfuck of medium-filmmaking, and poor writing - trying to corrolate the few good ideas they have. It could have been made in a day, and then edited into something else.99% dark mushy out-of-focus scenes, "stolen" shots from other horror movie and classic, and the most unrealistic farfetched, stupid plot for a horror movie in a genre, that HAS to be realistic, to be scary.English is not my first language, i dont care about grammar much. The only thing that mattered was counterattacking the stupid review from the crew. 9/10, my ass. NOTHING in this movie is remotely interesting and none of the character are believable in any way. Every situation leads to a slap in your own face, and you wonder if you should give up, or what the last 50 minutes.DONT WAIT FOR THE GOOD ENDING, that saves most shitty horrors/thrillers. It is not there.
Don't want to spend much more time with this so will keep it short.It's crap. 2 stars.
Known for as a film editor, Julius Ramsay makes his directorial debut in this, his first full length film, following his only four TV series - two of which were Walking Dead episodes. And what an outstanding job he did in directing his cameras, and his cast. He teams up with (his brother) Alston Ramsay's first ever role as writer, and together they create a wonderfully tense, low-budget film noir that benefits greatly from its perfect length, pace, tautness and lack of pretension.By focusing more on suspense and tension with a perfect touch of gore, the Ramsay brothers have crafted an economical and effective alternative to the many disappointing big-budget entries into this genre.The primarily novice C-list, and a few B-list actors were surprisingly impressive. The score was perfect. The cinematography on point. Yes there were a few light plot issues, but still much better writing than some seasoned professional high-paid Hollywood writers.Aside from that, this film was pretty much flawless - considering its a low budget and B-grade entry level film. Would I see it again and recommend it? Absolutely! A well deserved 8.5 rounded up up a 9/10
