Night of Wrath

This is a lower budget movie to be sure, but they did a decent job. Some of the actors managed to bring a lot of heart into their roles. Some of the dialogue was either stilted or delivered in a stilted manner, but it seemed like a labor of love, which I appreciate.

Don't go into it expecting a high budget gore fest. Make some popcorn and just enjoy some young actors doing their best!

Fun watch, and like that I could watch it with a younger audience and not worry about it. We watched it again and possibly liked it better the second time.

Although I would have loved to see more about their stories before entering the haunted house, I knew enough and it worked for me and was enjoyable. The pacing was good and I was never bored. For an indie film it was the right length for what the movie is.

Fun environment at the haunted house, great cinematography, and good acting from the young stars. This is worth a watch (it's fast) and a good one for families looking for a thriller they can watch together.

Fun spooky watch! And even funner on a rewatch.

Loved the Nightmare on 13th haunted house setting and loved the fun villainous/virtuous religious undertones. A short suspenseful watch, which was perfect, and the Jane actress, Mia Bagley, was phenomenal.

Also have heard other viewers comment on how they liked that they could watch this as a family as it was free from explicit content while still being suspenseful.

For a micro budget first feature, I was super impressed. Excited to see what Cooper Home Entertainment and Working With Lemons do next! Also loved the color palette and cinematography.

But not totally unenjoyable. I mean, I was able to make it through the entire movie but thankfully it was pretty short as far as movies go.

So, anyway, the story is about a school group called the Virtuous Student Society who get trapped in a haunted house by a guy named Wrath. Wrath apparently had dirt on all of them and is going to reveal it all except for the secret of whoever wins his game.

That's basically it. But the script is really bad. The dialogue is amateurish. The acting terrible. The plot is just silly.

I could understand this being a low budget movie having problems. But a good script and good acting can rise above the budget. That didn't happen here. The writer should have put a lot more work into the script because it was downright silly.

I am giving it four stars simply because I was not bored. Hell, I'll even recommend you to watch it only for you to see what I did: a really bad film.

Oh, and this is NOT a horror film. I think it wants to be one but there is no horror, no suspense and no thrills. It's just like someone's high school project.

This is not a new premise; somebody putting people through torture to make them admit their secrets. The issue is, there is no torture, there is no terror, and there is no character development. They throw this group of high school kids into this situation almost immediately, so there is no back story for almost everyone. Part of the fun of this type of movie is guessing what they are guilty of, and that's impossible when you know nothing about the character. For most of the movie, i thought two different male characters were the same person.

That being said, it gets a decent low budget rating for not looking or sounding awful. The cinematography and sound were pretty good, and the haunted house setting worked.

This movie is a family affair. The two leads are real life brother and sister, and the director has same last name (father/uncle?). Neither of them deserved lead roles; some of the other actors were actually better. Of note was the girl's inability to pretend to be handicapped. When she has no cane, she walks with her foot twisted. When she has the cane, she walks perfectly fine.

The villain is also revealed WAAAAY too early. The screenplay really needed to be run by an experienced editor, and it probably would have greatly improved the film.
