The Ganzfeld Haunting

This movie had about 20 minutes worth of potential substance, padded with 60 minutes of absolutely useless filler. It starts out with some kids attempting some kind of ESP experiment in a seemingly abandoned house. For a while I thought it had potential, but quickly realized I had made a grave miscalculation. Right from the get go we are thrust into the middle of the story with no explanation or background given whatsoever. After about 20 minutes of throwing random images and dialog at the viewer in hopes of building up a creepy and mystic atmosphere (scenes of the first stages of the experiment) I guess the producers were like "ok well dang...that's all we got" and then scrambled to find another hours worth of footage to use so they could call this a film. The bulk of the remainder of the movie is softcore porn and nonstop shots of people doing cocaine. Like, they literally do at least 50 lines of coke in the span of one day. After a few minutes of this it becomes painfully obvious that the concept of a film has been thrown out the window in favor of endless cheap sleaze. The majority of the film felt like a clichéd, unimaginative music video without direction (oh, they even play some really annoying dubstep for a while over unnecessary scenes of partying). Ultimately there is NO point to this movie whatsoever and I have no idea why they even bothered to make it. No story, no character development, nothing. There are very few scenes which have anything to do with the supposed plot; most of which were comprised of choppy "visions", super cheesy ghost...sister...thing(still not sure what that was about and don't care enough to find out), and some convoluted voice-over meant to sound deep while attempting to mask the complete lack of genuine depth or plot. Do not waste your time unless you're just looking for footage of teens partying. The people in charge of this film (writer, director) need to move to another profession as they seem to have a gross lack of understanding as to what a movie is.

Our final psychology assignment of the year....at a neutral location!!!!!

Okay so there's a little bit of experiment....

Then theres a mountain of blow and long extended scenes of drug use.....

-1 Star for the mountain of drug use.....

Ooo then we get a Rumor Willis strip tease and some on top of the clothes lezbian action. Throw in a guy for a little orgy start.... This is what drugs do...yes , yes they sometimes do!!!!

-1 Star for who wears that kinda of underwear to the final psychology assignment of the year??? lol....and who brings that amount of dope????

Hey at least the girls are still in their underwear and ready for action when the haunting type stuff begins!!!

Looks like they brought plenty of whiskey to drink as well to their 'experiment'...

I like when the 1 guy accuses the other guy of snorting too much blow when he's trying to take advantage of one of the girls who snorted just as much if not more.... that's style and class right there.....

then Lucky wakes up and starts snorting more blow while her nose is still bleeding from the last round...

-1 Star for when girl starts really losing her ....mind...well what is left of it after all the dope she's on....

How they got a couple of decent actors for the scenes at the end I'll never know... but the damage is already done....and the detectives....boy they still got some bad lines.....

What a horrible, stinking, pile of excrement.

2/10

Is the only reason i rated thus as high as i did,because obviously she can act. But this script must have been done as a favor to a friend because it was all cocaine and crotches. I don't even know why the plot played out as it did,with a murderer being uncovered,but was the murderer truly even evil or was he being used by a predator? How a 8-12 year old can have such a profound gap of knowledge,even with trauma, was confusing. The unprofessionalism and incompetence of the law enforcement officers was the crap icing on this crap cake. It's too late for me--i can't unsee this. But you still have time to save yourself. Skip this turd.

This could have been so much better with a better script. The characters, while somewhat likable, are irritating because they are constantly fighting against each other and throwing f-bombs throughout the whole film. Two of the characters are likely to party with drugs and alcohol, but eventually all partake. The only good parts were the flashbacks of the father (who I thought was the most interesting character and I would like to have seen more about him) and the lost sister. The effects showing them and the children were decently done but not that scary. There is a high level of tension that makes the film uneasy to watch. And when it's over you feel it wasn't worth it in the long run.

The dear d b user said pretty much everything. I absolutely agree with him and want to congratulate him for having the patience to write so many things for this meaningless and total crap of a "film." A film with no reason to be made from the start. Nothing worth seeing on this garbage. Except for those who like to see naked or almost naked girls, make out and stuff. Something you see in hundreds of movies. Taylor Cole, is an absolutely gorgeous and very sexy woman to lay your eyes on, and one of my personal favorites, but she didn't have to underestimate herself and star in this total trash of a movie just to earn some money. She has potentials to gain money with her looks and her acting skills, even though on this one, she doesn't show them at all.

A "marriage" between the classic plot with a group of teens/students who go for a holiday to have "fun" by smoking joint, snorting cocaine, giving lesbian kisses,and supernatural figures and ghosts. Just to laugh at and get angry at the creators, who totally insult your intelligence.

I respect and applaud any effort in low budget movies and new ideas. But this one is an absolute failing attempt on combining 2 different themes, and also sticking to one theme either. And also is one from the many similar movies we constantly see and has nothing to offer. Absolutely nothing, in my opinion.

Well it might have one thing. For people who may suffer from insomnia, will probably help them to sleep, and actually enjoy their sleep.
