Cold Moon (2016)
Cold Moon takes place in tiny Babylon, Fla., where the granddaughter of Clark’s character is murdered by a mysterious assailant, her body sunk into the black waters of the Styx River — the river where her parents disappeared from their boat a decade earlier. Suspicion falls on a duplicitous banker and his wealthy father, played by Stewart and Lloyd.

Am I Missing Something?
Clever and entertaining enough to recommend even to members of the 1%
It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,
Its been a while since I saw a film where every single minute is interesting. This is one of those rare finds. The film is wonderfully mysterious and became more and more interesting with every scene delivering more twists. There was literally never a single dull moment. The acting was great and the effects were awesome. The film has some great scares, and also great scares thanks to clever editing. 'Cold Moon' was fantastic!
I didn't watch because of particular actors being billed so that wasn't a turn off for me like it was for others. It was a lot better than the typical 3/4 star horror movies I watch on Amazon. I agree with those who consider it more of a ghost/supernatural flick rather than a horror. I think since the ghosts were after the bad guy it didn't seem scary, although it did have some freaky scenes toward the end. It did have a bit of a slow start, but after the first murder it kept me engaged throughout. It also had me emotionally vested in the movie as I just kept getting angrier that the D-bag antagonist just kept getting away with more and more stuff. It really had me hoping he would get what was coming to him. It really got to the point where I was thinking that simply getting killed wouldn't be enough punishment for him, and I must admit I wasn't disappointed with how it all caught up with him...very satisfying. If you're like me and are constantly scouring Amazon and Netflix for a nightly horror flick I would definitely recommend this one. It's by far the best I've seen this week (turning off Mr. Cleaver as I type, this seems awful).
"Cold Moon" is a ghost story, albeit a BAD ghost story. It seems a local family is about to go tits up on their mortgage with the local bank...and...it seems the evident bad guy at the bank is after that land."Cold Moon" managed to misadvertise itself all over the place. "Coffins will rise from the earth" (there was actually one that did that). The story is just too lame--not to mention too unscary--to pass for horror. Couple that with the fact the audience knows from the beginning who the bad guy is and you've got yourself a movie that has no way to entertain anyone. EVERY person in this "small southern town" is diabolical and/or already bought by the bank president. The people involved did try to create a few scares, but even they became laughable after a point.The version I saw is unrated. It contains nudity, sexual situations, violence, and language. Can't recommend it.
Someone reviewed before about Tommy Wieseau being in the movie for 10 seconds, I'd say that's an overstatement. He's kind of on screen clearly for maybe 5 seconds tops. Cheesy cameo he say's a line almost directly from "The Room".I went to see this movie thinking it might have some terribly bad but amusing parts. I was wrong, just bad everything. Surprised movies like this still exist somehow.
