Bereamic Awesome Movie
Crwthod A lot more amusing than I thought it would be.
Tayloriona Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.
Fatma Suarez The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful
GL84 Arriving in a small town, a recently divorced man accidentally unleashes a demonic curse with a supernatural entity that is descended from a Satanic curse in his bloodline dating back centuries, forcing him into a deadly battle with the dangerous creature.This turned out to be quite the decent and enjoyable monster movie. One of the better elements here is the rather impressive amount of suspenseful, enjoyable attacks in here which make this one highly interesting. The ability of having the attacks be mostly based on the fog-enshrouded locations that so prevalent in here so the opening attack in the woods where the guy searching for his cat only to stumble upon the creature in the darkness, or a later attack on the highway with all the different creatures getting involved in the incident both manage to incorporate those rather chilling elements to maximum impact. Other attacks, such as the ambush on the hunting party in the foggy woods as they prowl through the under-brush or the encounter in their house also showcase the film's penchant for creepy sections loaded with atmosphere so that tends to bring an overall chilling effort that has a rather frenetic pace to it due to these really chilling scenes. This one tends to go along at quite the great pace here which accounts for quite a few action-packed scenes that move the rather enjoyable plot along incredibly well. That has a lot to do with the concept of the curse here as well, coming off as a really different take on the whole cursed- bloodline angle and makes for a rather pleasing effort overall. Along with the creatures' look and the build-up in here to the finale, there's enough good parts here to make this quite entertaining. There's a few flaws here that do pop up, mainly in the few small attacks here that no mean nothing to the film as a whole. A couple of these attacks are just so short that it's impossible to get a sense of what happened, unlike past Sci-Fi Channel efforts where they played a fine role in the course of the film's events while others are edited so haphazardly that the disorienting nature of what's going on throughout here makes for some pretty troubling times with this. The other big flaw in this one is the fact that a huge majority of the attacks, fun as they may be, have an underlying sense of stupidity on the victims who continually wonder long into the traps and ambushes by their inability to recognize the danger of the situation. Add in some rather lame kills and a lot of off-screens ones as well and these do hold back the few flaws here.Rated Unrated/R: Graphic Violence, Graphic Language, Brief Nudity and sexual content.
Boloxxxi After losing his job and his girlfriend Denny travels to Tennesee to spend some time with a friend and do some research on some of it's history; specifically matters concerning unsolved murders of people and animals. Shortly after his arrival, more murders of people and animals occur. The sheriff is suspicious of him (never mind that the town has had a history long before Denny showed up) but at this point it's only an "interesting coincidence". More stuff happens, and it turns out that all of it is connected to an ancestor of Denny's, Charles Dellington, who was a former slave owner in Tennessee. Seems that after the slaves were liberated old man Dellington couldn't get anyone to work for him because of his bad reputation. So he tried to work the land himself, but that failed. He tried raising cattle; that too failed. He prayed to God for help, but it seems God was busy, or something. Desperate, Dellington tried "the other guy" (yeah, the Devil). He draws a large pentagram, strips down to his underwear, and lies down at it's center and offers the devil his soul. This is some old guy, folks, so we know the Devil couldn't have been too pleased with that maneuver. He cursed the poor bastard.In my mind this is at best a 4 star movie. The acting could have been a little better on the part of some of the cast members. And the story (as usually is the case) could have been more imaginative though I did like the form the ghost took. There's also some very bad "old man" make-up in here so the make-up artist should go back to school. Lastly, I never really understood the reason for all the killings; animals, people, WTF?!!! If you see the movie let me know. Love, Boloxxxi.
ctomvelu1 The Mandylor brothers, Louis and Costas, who aren't getting any younger or better in the acting department, costar in this no-budget demon-hunting tale set in a Steven King-type small town. The demon has been awakened from a long sleep by the arrival of a young writer, whose family was from the town and who is connected to it somehow. It starts off by killing some cattle and then tears up a whole bunch of people, including most of the cast, which isn't all that large. The script is pretty bad, the acting is wooden, and the special effects are just so-so. The demon itself isn't all that bad-looking and wisely is kept in shadow most of the time -- and frankly it could just as easily have been a werewolf. I think the filmmakers were influenced by the TV show, SUPERNATURAL. The ending is lifted from both John Carpenter's THE THING and THE FALLEN.
Neil Doyle BRAD THORNTON and LOUIS MANDYLOR star in what feels like a Stephen King story about a sheriff (Mandylor) trying to solve the mysterious deaths of townspeople and farm animals in Tennessee who have fallen prey to a blurry dark figure who seems to be impossible to kill.With phony Southern accents for some cast members and CGI effects that are unworthy of even a made-for-TV thriller, none of it appears to be the least bit convincing. It doesn't help that none of the principal roles are played with any distinction.Director Joe Bender must be partly to blame but the script is trite, shallow stuff with cardboard characters that have no dimension whatsoever.Apparently, the scriptwriter ran out of ideas for the ending and leaves everything pretty much unresolved as to the fates of our hero (Thornton) and the town sheriff.
