I actually quite liked the premise of this one... a nasty ol' bloody-drinking cult kidnap young men and women and steal their life essence. Only this time the adduct the wrong woman - someone with extreme anger issues and who definitely needs stronger antidepressants.

It's a nice idea and was enjoyable enough as a simple B-movie, but my main complaint was that it could probably have been much better. When the two female protagonists are lured to the mansion, there are some major red flags that all is not good. If you're relaxing in the bath and some old woman sneaks in and pretends to be your boyfriend and starts washing your hair and when you try and say something, starts yanking it painfully. Plus their hosts don't let them change clothes in days (would any woman really put up with not changing clothes for that period of time and just not say anything?!) and when it comes to dinner, their hosts seem only too keen for them to drink dodgy-looking liquid with glee.

The first half was pretty slow, but it gets a lot better in the second half when the bodies start piling up. There's not too much gore, but the practical effects are simple and realistic. However, its major let-down was its dialogue. The two female leads are pretty good, but all the bad guys just come across as cliches and one-dimensional evil dudes with no real depth, other than to be the antagonist. The spout cliched villain lines at every turn and are more of a joke than the serious film probably wants them to be.

There's a bit of over-the-top gore at the end that feels a bit out of place, baring in mind the limits the characters were capable of during the film's runtime and you may have to suspend your disbelief for that one. But, despite its faults, overall the film is a solid little watch if you have nothing better to do and fancy some mindless hunting/action. But, if you have 'Ready or Not' in your collection, probably best to watch that - it's better in every department and a very similar premise.

First, let me say that this objectively a bad movie. But, if you enjoy the horror genre (and maybe thriller), it's worth putting on in the background, or when wanting to fall asleep.

The writing and plot is decent enough, and somewhat believable. So I gave this 3 stars for that entertainment value. However, the acting is just so poor that it is hard to feel even remotely concerned for the victims. Almost every actor without fail sounds exactly like they are either reading directly from the script, or they think that acting involves being as camp and over the top as possible.

There are many fight scenes in this movie, and unfortunately all of them look very fake. Punches that don't connect, sound effects that don't match correctly to the cause of the sound, and massive windups that look almost comical when certain weapons are used. Seriously, the person being hit should have been able to just casually step aside half the time.

Overall, this movie had the foundation to be something really great due to a compelling background for the lead actress, and the bf's family as well. But both of those things are only ever vaguely alluded to. The audience is left struggling to care about anyone, and half the time hoping they will all just die and the movie ends.

Do NOT pay to watch this. But if you are really bored or multitasking, its vaguely interesting.

Beats me how they manage to raise the money to make films like this, it really does.

Most of the characters are supposed to be yanks, but that changes by the sentence.

The family settled in Scotland in the 1800s, but inexplicably don't even speak with a Scottish accent.

There's the token macho tough guy, who just has to display his oiled up biceps at all times, despite this being Scotland, and my god does it get cold up there!

There's also the preposterous storyline involving drinking blood to prolong life.

The heroine, an extremely scrawny and emaciated lady, somehow has superhuman strength.

For all these reasons this just ain't worth your time.

Wow...just wow how bad this movie is. The acting is just so horrible. The characters are all pathetic....the storyline is just so stupid. Selling blood to customers ? So ludicrous. You try to like the main actress and the revenge factor, the the story is just so stupid that you really don't care about any of it. How these movies get financed is beyond me. People really don't have anything else to do with their money besides make this garbage ? Unbelievably, I managed to waste 90 minutes of my life watching this absolute trash. Avoid this horrible junk at all cost...stupid stupid movie. The end.

Everyone on this movie ought to be ashamed of it's release. From writers, directors, producers, casting, actors, stunt co-ordinators, extras, musicmake up, make-up et al! I would suggest taking their names off the credits.

This is just so bad from start to finish. 'RAGE'... haha the most rage on display is when the main character is 'pranked', by a girl lying on the floor pretending to be dead.

Is this meant to be a spoof on the genre? The fight scenes are so laughably slow and choreographed, it makes the action in 'Shaun of the dead' positively action packed and fast paced. Sorry did I say Shaun of the dead? I meant just dead people laying on the floor is more fast paced.

Give it a miss!

If you want a movie that's so bad it eventually entertains, this is the one for you. Starts pretty incoherently with odd thing happening after odd thing happening. Characters make ridiculous decisions and dismiss obvious red flags. As a viewer, I challenge you to discover if you are in England or America. Car and license plates - Europe. Lead character, British accent. Everyone else? American. Yet somehow the family's been there since 1863? Shrug. However, when the action finally starts it's so bad it's good. It's a direct rip off of "The Most Dangerous Game" complete with a Count Zaroff character. Enjoy.

As this film opens a man is held captive. He is tormented before his throat is cut and his blood drained into a bucket. The action then cuts to protagonist Erin; she has been invited for a weekend away with her boyfriend at his parent's remote house in the Scottish Highlands. On the way she learns that his brother and his girlfriend as well as his sister are to be there. When they arrive we see that his parents were the killers from the opening scene. It soon becomes apparent that the 'girlfriends' are intended to be the next victims. What they didn't reckon on was the fact that Erin was kidnapped before and now fuelled by perpetual rage she is more than a match for them.

This is not a great movie but if you are in the mood for trashy violence then it is rather fun. There aren't too many surprises; the opening scene lets us know the parents are murderous and we are soon informed of the reasons they want to blood. The only real question is how the various bad guys are going to die. The action is nicely varied and fairly bloody but unfortunately the fights don't feel real as we can see that blows come nowhere near hitting their target. The acting is okay; a bit of hamminess adds some unintended humour to proceedings. The setting is good although one would expect some of the characters to sound at least vaguely Scottish. Overall I'd say this is fun enough if you are in the mood for an hour and a half of trashy violence.

Eventually, it ends.

I could handle the bad acting I could handle the terrible script What really makes this movie a mess is that it is just a jigsaw puzzle of ideas from my better movies:

Hostel Ready or Not Surviving the Game You're Next Better Watch Out Hereditary Midsommar The Strangers Get Out

Just to name a few. It is like the production didn't have even a single original idea nor could they even begin to put a new spin on an existing one.

There is zero suspense, very mild (relatively speaking) violence, zero nudity, it has nothing going for it.

The trivia indicates it was shot in 18 days. I guess they forgot to add they have zero skills in filmmaking as well.

Didn't give it one star only because there is enough violence to at least keep me marginally interested as I played games on my phone.

Avoid this one if you can.

The critics are being too hard on this. It's a certain type of movie that you either mess with or you don't. I actually liked it! You can't go into something like this expecting a masterpiece and it was way better than expected. I mean maybe because I'm all for a woman kicking men's butts but I thought the fight scenes were pretty good for a low budget film and I liked the main characters back story. All except for the last couple of unbelievable deaths which got a bit campy, It was fun at the least. Nothing more to really say! I don't like that this thing is making me try and find things to say to meet the word requirement.

The way the movie started, I felt it might be a real loser. A man, clearly beaten, manages to escape his binds, and then gets into a fight with one of the captors. He manages to get a knife, but hesitates, which of course is a bad idea. It then switches to Adam picking up Erin to go to his parents house, which is very isolated. On the way, they pick up his brother Michael and Sarah. The parents seem a bit strange, and at dinner offer their special drink. Of course it is drugged, as the parents are in the business of harvesting blood, rich in adrenaline, which they get by terrorizing their captives. And they have apparently a basement full of captives. But it turns out Erin is not just some young woman. At age 4, she was kidnapped, tortured and abused for 15 years before she could make her escape. And her captors didn't fare well. There is plenty of gore, blood and killings which should satisfy most viewers. It is basically an action film to be accepted on that basis.

Right, well the rather low rating that this 2023 movie had been getting was definitely something that spoke against sitting down to watch what director David Ryan Keith had to offer with "I Am Rage". However, I opted to sit down and watch the movie nonetheless, since it was a movie that I hadn't already seen.

And I managed to suffer through a bit more than half of the movie, then I just tossed the towel in the ring. I was literally bored out of my mind, because the narrative in the movie was insanely slow paced, devoid of anything interesting and just generally lacking appeal. So writers Stephen Durham and David Ryan Keith failed to deliver anything worthwhile watching here.

Needless to say that I wasn't familiar with anyone on the cast list in "I Am Rage", nor can I claim that I was impressed with the performances that I saw on the screen. I am sure that the actors and actresses were talented enough, but they virtually had nothing worthwhile to work with in terms of script, storyline, dialogue and character gallery.

I have zero interest in returning to attempt to watch the rest of "I Am Rage", because I just simply found no entertainment in the storyline, and I didn't care one bit about the one-dimensional cardboard characters.

My rating of "I Am Rage" lands on a one out of ten stars.

Is this supposed to be serious?! Could someone please give me the money it cost to make this movie?

Because I'm sure I could make something just as laughable. What an embarrassing attempt at movie making.

And where are we getting actors these days? Rhetorical question. There were no actors in this movie.

Also, I don't understand why the accents came and went, almost like they forgot they were trying to speak with American accents? Hard to tell what they were trying, not sure they knew either.

At a 4.9 IMDB rating,I was not expecting anything oscar worthy, and I'm not sure this is even Razzy worthy. Is there something below Razzy?

This one is a real missed opportunity. The idea of adrenochrome harvesting is a great idea. Totally mishandled here. The actors are extremely uncharismatic, the bad guys ridiculously unthreatening, and the action scenes are so clumsily handled you have to wonder if the director and writer put this thing together as part of a high school project. While the cinematography is competent, it's relentlessly generic, without a single truly interesting shot throughout. The main character also has the frustrating tendency to walk off without keeping any number of weapons. All in all, pretty much a waste of your time.

A low budget movie, not a bad sound track, but weak acting and effects lets it down. Also the character in the cowboy hat has an amusing resemblance to Gary Glitter from the 70's british rock scene, it's an unfortunate look for him!

It's one of those movies that intrigues, you have to watch it despite the shortfalls to find out what happens.

Filmed in the Highlands of Scotland, it's a great advertisement for the beautiful landscape up there and, surprisingly, the weather appeared to be kind during the shoot.

The lodge location is available to hire should you want to experience the wilderness of the Highlands.

Overall, if you have nothing else worth watching this is worth a try, just don't expect a blockbuster.

I think this was a cult classic in the making of a camp movie. The camp characters were very well acted. Margaret was ferocious. Erin was on target. Sarah did well. The mother also. The female roles were so well done in this camp fashion. The male roles were good too. It was funny at times.

In the movie, Erin had been so greatly tortured all of her life, her body made extra adrenaline that turned her into a biological anomaly with superhuman strength. Like when someone has an adrenaline rush and has extra strength, that was her physical state in a fight or flight response.

It was in between horror and comedy. I gave it an 8.

The storyline, acting and fighting was so bad. I had to finish it to find out if it actually had a good ending but of course it didn't. They were better off showing a cartoon version of themselves. This is really a low budget film that needs a lot of attention and a remake. This was meant to be more on Tubi than Prime. No it shouldn't even be showing it was so disappointing. Prime really needs to step up its game with movies and tv shows. It's very dry and it doesn't draw the attention. The storyline needs more and the action and graphics need to be more realistic for the year 2025. This was a sad movie that's needs to be improved major.

To be honest, this should've been a short film. However, with a different Production Company and Director, it could've had potential especially dealing with the main protagonist who seemed to be able to fight pretty well. The action sequences were sloppy, the storyplot lacked big time with loads of gaps, and I'm sure the editing probably would not have given it any justice either.

Sure, having a female lead would have been successful had it made more sense, but it failed in almost every avenue. Hannaj Bendz needs another shot with a different Production Company- she's actually not bad at all.

Some years ago, I remember watching BECKY. This movie has some of the feels from that other movie. It doesn't speed through at all. A big action film, this is not. It's a slow burn that will deliver on most of its promises, but asks for a little work along the way.

But they do put in a couple of really odd and surly performances to keep you busy with the obvious: are all these people after the same thing?

In my humble opinion, you can't ask much more from a film that encompasses The Hunt with a touch of Becky and Wolf's Creek. It delivers its biggest promises, even though it falls short of making some of the bad guys as "bad" as they can be.
