Talon Falls

As a local, I was wanting to hate this movie. I live within 3 miles of this haunted house, and have been to the new one as well as the old one they had in Paducah, Ky. From the very beginning I had a good laugh with the country store. A store my boys went to at least once a month from pre-k to 6th grade with the elementary school across the street. Then the drive from the store to the haunted house, with it getting dark on the 3 1/2 minute drive from one place to the other. But, as I said i was expecting to hate it, but it was redeeming. It has a decent story line. Much more then I was expecting. The acting was not horrible. Again as a local and running across abandoned trailer parks out in the middle of no where, missing people that haven't been found in years, it makes you wonder what may be going on in the area....... It makes you stop and think about some of these rural haunted houses you go to out in the middle of no where. Some of them credit cards are not excepted. Hmmmm i wonder why. Can't trace you back if no name involved. Your in the country, you think they don't have connections with the local tow company, just around the corner from the country store. Cell phones, what service?????? You're not within reach of a tower. Some haunted houses are scary. Sometimes the area around you is scarier.

It's a rip off of Funhouse Massacre, but it's still enjoyable. The music definitely elevates it significantly. If you haven't checked out Mr. Strange yet, you definitely need to give them a listen. This movie is free on Prime right now, so if your options are watching a repeat or this, give Talon Falls a try.

Some of the scenes were cool... but I couldn't get over the severe lack of imagination for story. EXTREMELY FLAT!! The haunt was cool, the idea was OK... but the beginning SCREAMED "House of 1000 rip off".

I met the guy at the gas station the other night. Someone even asked "Is there something wrong with that guy?" Kept asking us if we wanted our picture with him. I'm sure he may be a nice guy, but he was annoying Sunday night.

I rated a 3 / 10 and I was feeling generous. Much of the acting was bad... even for a low budget horror film. But the idea of the torture setup etc was pretty neat. We finished the film but we won't be adding it to our shelf.

After reading some bad reviews, I have to say it wasn't that bad. It was quite decent for a low budget production.

So I will rate this movie much like how I rate all movies...for what it is and sells. This is supposed to be a horror / splatter movie. It is not good enough to watch it again...it is not bad enough to watch it for fun...it is just...meh...the story was not origina!,but this is fine for me...the acting was bad...but I could live with that as well...but for a horror/splatter movie,stealing so many elements from other movies of its kind...one could at least expect some more blood,more Gore,more imagination in the tortures,and at least a bit more tension!the "victims" either get caught too easily,or escape too easily!even the "twist" in the end is expected!in a nutshell...I don't regret seeing it,but there definitely are greater movies of this kind,and one can waste his time watching something else.
