Nat's horror movie review thread

[nat666195]

Hi everyone.

I know I'm not everyone's favourite person on here and I don't expect anyone to read this thread.

Anyway I thought rather than doing a list of my favourite ones I'm just going to review the film's I've seen good or bad. Some are recent ones and some are more well known.

Hope you enjoy it.

Great. The Babadook was the last one I saw.

Morgan (2016)

https://i0.wp.com/media2.slashfilm.com/slashfilm/wp/wp-content/images/morgan-poster.jpg

This film is about a group of researchers trying to destroy a humanoid but she goes berserk and gets rid of them one by one.

The majority of this film held my attention and it certainly has the potential to be a good film.

There were certain things about this film that put me off for a while.

The ending was slightly disappointing. The connection between Morgan and everyone else was practically non existent.

Apart from those it was a good film.

Incarnate (2016)

https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/d/d3/Incarnate_(film).jpg/220px-Incarnate_(film).jpg

This is a devil possession movie. The trailer to this looked promising so I paid to see this at the cinema. I came away disappointed.

This movie has absolutely no plot or character development. It didn't do anything to scare you or to think about after. There was no explanation of events throughout the movie.

The one good thing about this movie is Aaron Eckhart's acting.

Don't breathe (2016)

https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/4/41/Don't_Breathe_(2016_film).png

From the creators of the evil dead remake comes this suspenseful and excellent movie.

It centres around three thieves that break into an old blind man's house. Things don't go according to plan and the old blind man isnt as harmless as they seem to think. They learn not to let the blind man hear them breathing so they don't get killed.

This is an excellent well structured and fast paced movie. Thus film holds its own and is one of the best ones I have seen.

Split (2016)

http://www.filmycat.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/11/Split.jpg

This is the latest film from M.Night. This movie stars the great James McAvoy.

It is very suspenseful but I don't think it should be labeled a horror. Its more a psychological thriller but hey ho.

It has the famous M.Night twist that always appear in his movies.

This movie comes highly recommended by me

I've been looking forward to Split, despite not caring for Shyamalan. I thought it wasn't out until the end of next month though. Where did you see it if you don't mind me asking? Did you see it at Fantastic Fest back in September?

[nat666195]

I saw it at some festival thing can't remember the name could quite possibly be the one you mentioned. You will enjoy it though when you see it .

[CosmicRunaway]

A trailer for it came on before some movie I saw in theatres recently. My room mate and I couldn't stop laughing at it at the start, then slowly we realized that we actually wanted to see it. Did you think it was legitimately good, or one of those "so bad it's good" movies? I really only want to watch it for McAvoy's various performances, so either way is fine by me, but I'm curious as to which it is.

[nat666195]

I thought it was really good. M night has proven himself in this film. McAvoy is very good in this. You will be surprised at the twist in it. Not going to say anymore. Don't want to spoil it for you.

That's only my opinion. Let me know what you think of it when you see it.

Hi everyone.

I know I'm not everyone's favourite person on here ...

Thread about horror you say?

You're now a favorite.

:)

[cricket]

I wouldn't watch Incarnate anyway. There's too many possession movies as it is, and plus I don't like Aaron Eckhart.

[Swan]

I'm worried about Split. It looks good but looks like it might annoy some people in the mental health community, too. In other words, If it gets really popular I won't hear the end of it. :D

[nat666195]

Will post a few more tonight.

Been really busy as of late.

Ouija: origin of evil (2016)

https://cdn.traileraddict.com/content/universal-pictures/ouija-origin-of-evil-4.jpg

This is a pretty standard horror film it contains all the typical stuff like jump scares and scary dreams.

It is set in the 1960's. It doesn't seem to go anywhere with the story.

The acting was the only decent thing in this movie. Reaser was excellent as the mother.

It is not scary at all and the few jump scares their are doesn't do anything to make it any better.

Blair witch (2016)

https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/2/2a/Blair_Witch_2016_poster.png

This movie is absolute poo. The lack of character development, no emotion or intelligence at all. I wasted 90 minutes on this.

I do not recommend this film at all.

Lights out (2016)

http://film.geourdu.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/08/Lights-Out-2016.jpg

The trailer to this looked promising but I was a bit disappointed with this film.

It uses the fear of darkness and turns it into something mediocre.

The performances were great you could see the connection they all had on screen.

The soundtrack is full of tension but it is quite emotional when it gets going. The movie starts with good tension but by the end it becomes predictable.

It works well visually. The cinematography is fantastic and the lighting is good.

The film's not all bad. It had a promising start but seemed to dwindle down near the end.

Worth one watch.

The shallows (2016)

https://secure.netflix.com/us/boxshots/ghd/80094622.jpg

This is a great movie not perfect but certainly great.

It's a survival movie where the main character gets attacked by a shark and escapes.

Blake lively is excellent in this. You can see the fear on her face and all the emotion that she's conveying.

This is a tense and unnerving 90 minutes.

Highly recommended

This movie is French and is based in true events. Then ending of this film will scare you.

The visuals are perfect so is the music.

Recommend this movie all the way.

This is a Russian horror movie.

I actually really enjoyed it. It has a tense and brooding atmosphere. The only problems that the story isn't really that interesting.

This movie was directed brilliantly. It's not overly scary but you do get some thought provoking moments.

Mum and dad

http://horrornews.net/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/Mum-and-dad-movie-2008-1.jpg

This is a fetish horror. Some of this is disgusting especially the dads fetish. This film is pretty dark but it doesn't take away from the story.

This is stunningly beautiful film. It has everything. The tension, the good actors and a great story. It does fall away abit in the middle.

A few good movies on this page, but then I loved Mum and Dad.

[nat666195]

Mum and dad is really not my cup of tea. I just found it sick and horrible really.

But thanks for the opinions on them. Fourth first person in a couple of days to even bother commenting on them apart from seeingisbelieveing.

There's so many threads and so little time. It can take a while.
