Rating: Summary: Stunk! Review: Do not waste your money on this piece of junk! Anybody who rates it above one star is obviously from the production team. It's dull, it's boring, it's unoriginal and the acting is beyond catastrophic....my little nephew could have done a better job with the cinematography! I just can't say enough bad things about it so I'll just sum it up with one word: LAME!
Rating: Summary: David A. Cross writes a fair review Review: Even though he made it, he's right, it's about 3 stars. Put it basically, it has original plot and some really creepy parts. But it was held back by its low budget, no doubt about it. So if you need the giant effects, steer clear. But if your a big time horror fan, don't miss it.
Rating: Summary: TOTAL CRAP! Review: I had a feeling this was going to be bad before it even started, and needless to say, I was right! Terrible acting, horrible writing, disasterous special effects....did I mention terrible acting? Trust me, this is more of a comedy then it is a horror! The bimbo "Ghost Watcher" with her orange blush was just hilarious! I guess this is what happens when you give a bunch of 9th graders a video camera - it simply doesn't get any worst then this. Avoid!
Rating: Summary: Quite Pleased Review: I have been so sick of Hollywood Horror for quite some time; it is insulting to intelligence.
This film, although low budget, seemed well thought out. I was especially pleased by the story, which was original, unpredictable, and unfolded at a nice pace. There were moments that made me jump, but even though I was looking for a scary movie when I got this, the scare turned out not to be the most important part. I wanted to know what happened next, the scares were complimentary.
The acting quality did get better as the story deepened, however, I have seen higher budget films with acting far worse. The girls were quite believable, especially during a few shining moments.
The actual film quality wasn't as bad as I had read on some reviews. It seemed to be the standard low budget film quality. Almost the same eerie quality as . . . yes . . . Evil Dead, (Great reference, by the way).
I think with a larger budget, this film would have been phenomenal; whatever flaws found seem mostly due to the smaller budget and unrefined natural artistic abilities.
This is one film worth giving a chance.
Rating: Summary: COULD have been a great movie Review: I have seen every horror movie ever filmed (well, most). Low budget and high; this film had a great plot, some pretty surprizing acting, and if a a bit more money had been spent, it would have been rated up there with Evil Dead. It made me jump a few times, especially the basement scene. The reason I only gave 3 stars was because of tacky filming. At first I thought it was a student film because of the amateurish work, but the plot and acting made it well worth the time to watch.
Rating: Summary: Aaaaaaaahahaha Review: I was seriously expecting this movie to challenge Orange County, Men in Black II, and Goldmember as the best comedy picture of 2002. I was so impressed, in fact, that I did background research on the main characters. To my surprise, I found that none of them have been in any movies besides this one. I couldnt understand why, when all of a sudden I thought to myself, "ooooh yeah, they sucked ass!" The blonde chick spends half the movie running away from a ghost who doesnt even threaten her. One time, he just looks her in the eye and touches her arm like a gentleman, and she gets all riled up. The ghost is the most famous character in the movie, becuz he was the same blue dude in the Dell PC commercials, where he looked just as goofy. I heard a rumor that he's gonna be in the upcoming Smurfs movie as well. At least he has somewhat of a future.
Rating: Summary: eh... Review: The movie started out pretty good. Its obvious this was extremely low budget (my hand held cam has better video quality then their's) and that they could only afford 3 real actors.. but despite all that it was alright. There were about 2 or 3 scenes that were generally creepy (the camera/knife scene was a good one) but i can't honestly say this movie could become an independent classic. i'd reccomend checking out Ghosts of Edendale if you liked this movie.
Rating: Summary: Not for the faint of heart, very original Review: This has got to be one of the best scary movies of all time. It's a supernatural twist on a serial killer plot. But, it's totally original...a welcome change from the usual horror flick cliches. You can't guess the direction that this film will take untill the end, because the script is different from any of the "typical" horror flicks. I thought this movie was absolutely terrifying. The low budget style and unknown actors made it seem more real. The characters have depth, also different from many movies in this genre. But, the movie doesn't overburden the viewer with all the characters' personal problems, either. I defy anyone to watch this and not be on the edge-of-your-seat during the "barn scene", or the scene in the basement of the old house. I had to press pause repeatedly during these scenes because I just couldn't take the suspense. If you're looking for a genuinely frightening, original suspensful movie, this is for you. However, if you prefer played-out, predictable slasher flicks (like many people do) you might want to skip this one. This is more frightening and more original than The Ring. This will become a classic independent film. Very fun to watch if you like scary movies.
Rating: Summary: Ghost Watcher Review: This was probably the worst movie I've seen in a long time. For one: The Scene where she put the camera on the computer to record what happened in the middle of the night and then watched it back. How in the world could the camera have been zooming in and out and panning from left to right? Stupid mistake. Next, the actors were absolutely horrible, my dog who is mentally retarded and cat with 3 legs could have done way better than the actors in this movie. I would also like to know why the ghost was called two different names, first Dixon and then some other name at the end, that didn't make any sense to me. The ending was horrible. Actually the whole thing was horrible, a huge waste of time don't even think about renting, buying, or even borrowing this movie from a friend unless you have plans to use it as some sort of flying object to hit an elderly friend with.
Rating: Summary: As an Unusual Ghost Story, I Liked This Film :-) Review: Yes, it is low budget, VERY low budget, but I have to admit this movie was quite original. At first I thought this was going to be bad, due to a slow start, but I was pleasantly surprised. The story eventually moves along well, and there are a few twists and turns along the way. I was surprised to find myself rather engrossed in this movie. It was also an added plus to recognize some of the landmarks in the movie, having grown up in the general area. I recommend this original and entertaining movie, as long as you go in knowing its low budget.
