Die Einöde

This movie had good acting, good cinematography, decent music, and the makings of a good story. Unfortunately the "story" is all sizzle without the steak. The story is confusing, never resolves in a satisfying way, and leaves the viewer trying to figure out what the hell was going on. It wants to create mystery like The VVitch but is nowhere near the sophistication in terms of writing and layers that the VVitch has going for it. If the VVitch is a 10 this is only half as good and trust me Im being generous. One other thing of annoyance is the way the characters, especially Diego, are ALWAYS so non-compliant when told to do something. The boy Diego never listens to his mom when she tells him to do something. He never listens to his dad. The mom doesn't listen to the dad or the son. The dad doesnt listen to the mom or the son. This constant and stupid defiance is exhausting. I hate people that don't listen! Anyways its worth a watch but keep expectations LOW.

Well netflix is usually a hit or a miss for this one its in the middle, the movie is boring almost nothing happens.

I do understand you must eat but those poor rabbits i got attached more to them then anyone in this movie who where annoying at best.

This movie doesn't have many horror elements, it feels more like a thriller.

Lately the movies that are sold to us as horror end up being something totally different, just like this one, which has a lot of suspense that works. Although the film shows how loneliness can be a terrifying emotional breaking point, it does not have aspects of a horror film, but the suspense it generates by showing how isolation and abandonment can destroy a person's sanity works. The acting is very good, the production design is also good, and the direction conveys the suspense and mystery that the plot describes.

The execution isn't the best, but it's suspenseful and well-done made, so it's effective in terrifying you psychologically for a while.

They say sometimes less is better, but in this case, I wish there was more.

The setting, cinematography, music and even the acting is good, but at the end all I can say is: What was going on? Was it a ghost? Was it a creature? Was it a product of their imaginations? Was the mother crazy? What the hell was happening?

A very good suspense and drama-driven movie but with a very unsatisfying ending.

I reminded me of The Babadook (which scared the hell out of me by showing nothing), or the VVitch, which was actually scary.

80% of the movie is a hysterical mother screaming for her weakling "Diego", absolutely not a must-see, there are plenty of better movies than this snooze-fest.
