What Josiah Saw

Seeing that this barely has had any audience I'm amazed how controversily it has been recieved in the reviews:

In my eyes the movie doesn't qualify as a horror flick, but it is a pure bred thriller. For most it might be a little rough to enjoy the storyline, as we're being dealt a missfit set of characters that are hard to empathize with. But it's exactly their consistency therein, that make this movie a fantastic gut wrencher. All sibilings deal with their childhood trauma in a unique way, that in itself forms a picture that the viewer might be able to puzzle together before its penultimate conclusion.

I'm quite sure that most people will be surprised how good this movie actually is, therefore I recommend seeing it.

Wow, what did I just watch? It's really hard to explain what's going on until the last few minutes, and even then you still feel like you don't really get the whole story. This movie is about sin and what to do to "make things right". However, there is a long way to the resolution with many loose ends to tie up, which eventually happens. So please be patient as this is a slow burner for sure.

The acting is top notch. Haven't seen such a good performance in a long time. Robert Patrick, Nick Stahl, Scott Haze and Kelli Garner do a fantastic job of making everything as unsettling as possible.

This is a dark strange unsettling masterpiece that deserves a much higher rating!

Outstanding. An true example of the notion that horror as a genre can be as meaningful and thought-provoking as any other. Incredibly disappointed to see reviews denouncing the movie for its length or lack of jump scares. Watched it over a week ago and have been thinking about it every day since. A must see for any believer in the idea that horror can be an art form. Acting and cinematography worthy of any Hollywood blockbuster. A must watch for any horror aficionado. I truly do not understand how any viewer could challenge the suggestion that this is a horror film - it instigated and cultivates a sense of dread and despair more as good as (or, in fact, better) any mainstream release of the last two or so decades.

This movie was twisted. Hard to watch and hard to stop watching. Without revealing any spoilers; this film visits some disturbing life potentials that most of us aren't exposed to but , unfortunately, we have known people who are. The dynamics across father, son, siblings....in a whacked out environment. Not really a horror film. More of a psychological thriller / drama.

Don't Really know how I feel after watching this. I think it's better than average. But, this is a strange flick. If you decide to watch it, allow yourself extra time to watch something else afterwards as I don't think you want to go to sleep thinking about this one. It's just weird.

This movie is probably one of Shudder's better film productions. Some aspects in this movie make you cringe (without spoiling), like a lot of incest related issues. That's not all though. The whole family was bats**it crazy.

The entire family that lived on that farm has a horrible thing(s) that they've done and as the movie plays out, you get to know more and more.

I really liked how this film presented both the past and current lives of the siblings. It made you actually care about what is going on. It only shows glimpses of the past for each sibling when their introduced. I think this is because... well, they're traumatized. You see little bits of messed up images until it all comes together in the end.

I think they did an awesome job on the movie. It had great dialogue and the cinematography was pretty damn well done. The camera shootings were great. It was an actual good folk horror story, with an ACTUAL good story.

Definitely worth a watch. I would recommend it if you like logic and realism in your horror views.
