Hurt

Everything about this movie oozes low quality and low budget. I have no clue what their budget was but it just shows that it must be pretty low. The cinematography is mediocre at best. The plot could have been interesting with more money and better actors. They made it so that you believe something specific will happen but it turns out different, but that's the good part of this movie. The suspense is very mild as it becomes quickly obvious what is really going on. The worst part is the acting of Melora Walters, if you can call that acting. I seriously wonder what she did to get this part in this movie. It's one of the rare occasions I had to witness an acting performance without any emotions. Every scene is that same monotone and annoying voice, like she's just reading her script without thinking about the plot or the scenes. You could watch her in a surprised scene, a dangerous scene, or a scary scene, every line is exactly the same tone without any emotion. To me it's a mystery how she became an actress. Just avoid this movie, it's really nothing new and a waste of time.

Was this a high school film production club project? Horrible.. from the moment the little girl threw it at the door I knew... this movie was terrible. TERRIBLE! Don't know why I watched it. No suspense or scare factor. Shame on the creditors because I wouldn't take credit for it... just gawd awful. Predictable start to finish, terrible acting minus a few scenes, nothing left me hanging on to anything except thank God this was watched on YouTube so the interruptions brought back my sanity from the horrid display of what is deemed a movie.. just wow.. had I known this passes for a movie, I should have been making my own years ago... just terrible.

Not bad definitely kept me guessing what would happen next. The acting was pretty decent too. Worth watching it u have the time!

HURT is a combination of family drama, thriller, and eeevil-kid horror movie.

A family relocates to a junkyard (!) home after the death of the husband / father. They soon take in an orphan named Sarah (Sofia Vassilieva), and bad things start happening. Suspicion builds until uneasiness turns into panic.

Chaos and death ensue.

HURT moves rather slowly, using the time for character development and story line. This isn't a maniac-on-a-rampage movie. The body count is relatively low. This is a tale of loss, pain, and vengeful rage unleashed. In a smart way.

Highly recommended for those seeking a bit more fiber in their horror movie experience...

I know it's a trade mark of maloras to be soft spoken but this is ridiculous. I can't hear a friggin word she says. The whole cast is incredibly underwhelming. You can tell the actors want to give better performances but were held back for some reason. The plot is straightforward yet somehow the tension is lost in translation to the viewer. The really climactic scenes are so forced it's cringey. Most of the issues the family face are solved with no exuberance but there's things that are just tossed aside as "na we're not going to review that". I had mediocre hopes going in and yet I ended up still greatly disappointed. Turns out, I'm the one who got HURT. (See what I did there?)
