Dreamcatcher

I created an account simply to give people the warning I wish I had for this movie DO NOT WATCH AND DO NOT BUY.

I've always been a fan of horror and this one is a complete and utter miss if you ask me. The acting is quite alien and forced, the characters actions frustratingly stupid and illogical at times and the characters themselves are all incredibly boring at best and hatable at worst. Now In some horror this works in the viewers favour because the movie is made more enjoyable counting the minutes for their brutal deaths, but there's hardly any killing, when it does happen it's unexciting and most of the movie is spent with the directors trying to be artistic in ways that just make you want them to get on with it or skip ahead. Which I admit I did. I tried to give it a go since my family had paid money to watch it, but halfway through I started to skip to get on to the plot and the promised horror. However even when the killing happened, and the big twist I was left unsatisfied and wishing I had given up earlier on the movie if it was just going to be this bland anyway.

This movie is boring , and has no pay off. I hope the writers,producers, and directors involved have learned from what is most likely the worst work of their career.

This is the first review I have ever written, but I just need to warn people. DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME. My mom and I watched for almost an hour in complete confusion, waiting for something to happen that would make it all make sense, but that didn't happen. It wasn't scary, there was no plot, the acting was mediocre at best, and overall, it was just incredibly boring. You know how some horror movies are so bad they're entertaining, well this isn't one of those. It's so bad that it's intolerable. The underground music festival atmosphere had so much potential, and it was almost a crime to see it butchered this badly. In conclusion, seriously don't waste your time, I'm genuinely angry that I did.

The first 15 minutes of this movie are fairly typical of a low-budget horror film. They introduce the main characters, add some family drama, a bit of peer pressure, and the character who is secretly crushing on his best friend. Fast forward to when the main characters get to the nightclub and it all goes downhill. Each minute that passed, I just became more and more confused. Aside from the plot making no sense, the characters are not realistic in the slightest. Don't watch this movie!!!

3/10 - weak acting and storytelling made this a complete and utter waste of a really cool setting for a slasher and left me hopeful that another (better) slasher will come along and take advantage of the underground music festival setting as its killer's playground.
