The Resort

Was good at the beginning but they really seemed like they ran out of money in the budget and made the ending trash I had really high hopes for this movie and they threw it in the trash I seen film students make a better movie then this garbage.

Terrible acting along with a predictable plot. We already had the people in a line for who would die first (and were right). Waste of time and money!! Worst $7 I spent!

If I had anything to do with this movie, I would legally change my name and open a laundromat.

I'm ashamed of myself for watching this to the end.

Plot

Four friends head to Hawaii to investigate reports of a haunting at an abandoned resort in hopes of finding the infamous Half-Faced Girl. When they arrive, they soon learn you should be careful what you wish for.

Cast

Unfamiliar with anybody involved.

Verdict

Obnoxious 20 somethings celebrate a birthday by going somewhere they shouldn't, why is this such a remarkably common plot? Anyway standing at just 75 minutes it's a swift tale, full of talking, and travelling and then when the action kicks off it's over before you can say "Has it started yet?".

But even then I didn't hate it, parts had been competent as had the character development but what ruins it are the closing moments which unfortunately involve a twist I'd called within the first quarter of the film.

The final moment is so bad and so cliched It flatlined any hope The Resort had of being memorable, entertaining or standing out from the crowd.

Rants

Why do they keep doing that "Twist" I mean I'm not going to spoil it here but I'm so very very tired of it. It makes up an alarmingly high percentage of horror films, you'll see it coming and I've off the top of my head not known a single instance where it actually works! It's one of those twists that horror filmmakers seem to tack on because they can't think of a decent ending. Enough already, you know what I'm talking about just stop it.

Breakdown

Decent character development Has it's moments Slow burn to very little Awful "Action" sequences Dreadful predictable finale.

The plot, the acting, the plot. Save yourself. Some reviews say that the last twenty minutes make this con of a horror movie worth the pain of sitting through the entire film. It was BAD from start to finish. So bad.
