Mjeteconer Just perfect...
ThrillMessage There are better movies of two hours length. I loved the actress'performance.
Lollivan 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.
Jakoba True to its essence, the characters remain on the same line and manage to entertain the viewer, each highlighting their own distinctive qualities or touches.
Phill Hornaday Went in to this film not expecting much as I checked out some positive reviews and decided to give it a watch. For the most part I enjoyed the plot it was simple yet almost Cabin Feverish.The things that went downhill for this film were two main things for me and those are... #1 the acting from Arielle Brachfeld (Angela) was pretty cringe worthy itself. The scenes with her and Rae are almost impossible to watch without turning your head in disbelief. Her alone made me nearly turn off the film but I kept watching hoping for a gruesome death.#2 was how ridiculously long of a build up this film had... I literally sat through 45-50 minutes of nothing but story telling of Rae & Angela's characters pretty much. IMO when you have a 90 minute or less window for the film do not spend 50 minutes messing around and if you do you better have good reason for it.However, with those two negatives out of the way the film was pretty decent in the rest of the departments. Effects were good for the low budget. The acting from the rest of the crew wasn't bad either... It's good for low budget horror film goers.
alshwenbear1 No there's no ghosts, zombies, or insane serial killers, but something worse than all of that combined; a chemical spill going airborne! Burning your skin, making you gasp for air, driving you mad and insane with panic, fear, terror.Through the whole movie I wondered: why I am torturing myself, but I couldn't walk away, now I am seriously considering a gas mask and protective gear! The acting is not the best, but who cares, the story and unfolding drama is so compelling, that it makes this movie more than a horror film, a fair warning for all.As a young man, not far from where I used to live, a terrible explosion burned people, houses, cars,and no movie before made me feel back to that horrible event. and I shiver thinking what if instead of gas, it had been a mix of lethal chemicals traveling fast for miles and miles? And that is the reason "Chemical Peel" is a movie to watch if you want to scare yourself, this upcoming Halloween,after that you won't need a ghost story!
chrismackey1972 Six friends - all girls - and an infant baby are at an out-of-the-way cabin that is owned by the grandfather of one of the girls. That night, while having a party, they hear noises from outside, and two guys - friends of the girls - come into the cabin for a brief visit.The next morning, two girls go outside and find that it's foggy, and it stinks of bleach. There are also dead birds on the ground. A moment later, a scream is heard. The girl with the baby is yelling that her child can't breath, so she runs out with the kid, gets in the car and drives away, leaving the girls totally stranded. They turn on the news and hear that there was a train accident that spilled a lot of toxins into the air, and then as is typical, the TV goes out. Also, they cannot get cell phone reception, and there is a busy signal when they called 9-1-1. One of the guys from the other night bangs on the door, but the girls refuse to let him in because if he's sick, he might contaminate everyone. While the girls are sealing up the windows with duct tape, they start wondering if ebola is outside. As well, they think terrorists might be responsible for the train accident. As the movie progresses, some of the girls show they are as big a threat as the danger outside.Let me say that I thought this would really, really suck. When I saw the cinematography, which reeked of very low-budget, I almost turned it off. At the beginning, the girls were kind of obnoxious. However, I like the atmosphere of places miles from anywhere, so I stuck with it. There was a lot of blood and gore, but no nudity. There was a part when a girl strips down to take a shower, but I think they even blurred her butt crack, which kinda cracked me up - no pun intended. lol. The acting got better as the movie went on. You could tell it was pretty low budget, but they did a good job, and state-of-the-art special effects were not needed. This was not a found-footage film, thankfully. I think anyone can appreciate the movie for what it is; a movie about a group of people trapped in a tragic circumstance. The bloody CPR was the grossest part of the movie. The dumbest part of the movie was what happened in the hospital room between Rae and the company representative. I don't know what it is with movies like this and Extraterrestrial that feel they need some sort of an explosive ending. It wasn't necessary at all. Anyway, I gave this a 5-star rating.
Sheila Brachfeld Chemical Peel is a tantamount gripping thriller. This is a movie that immediately engages as a bona fide news story. I was not the only viewer believing "Yes, this is possible." Throughout the movie there is irony and creepiness. The title implies this is a movie concerned with science and possibly fruit. But, the tension is riveted and built one piece at a time. Holding on to Chemical Peel is challenging. The music is somber and piqued allowing plausibility carrying my desire to see it until.... Then the light constricts as though concentrated. And the pacing speeds up. Chemical Peel catches you broadside. Bravo for the writers and actors in Chemical Peel. I highly recommend this experience.
