My Little Nightmare

Zero Stars, but that isn't an option. So bad, so bad.

This is the worst movie I have seen in years. Nothing is redeeming about it other than their ability to get this made and on a streamer. This movie's horror is that actual money was spent on making it.

The premise seemed well-intentioned, but the execution(what should be done to this movie) was deadly.

There are plenty of widely known horrible movies out there. Fortunately, this movie is so bad that it won't even make it onto the list of all-time bad movies because it won't get the satisfaction of being seen enough to make this dubious list. At least being on the "All-Time Worst Movies" will get you views and sales, but this piece of garbage won't even make that cut.

Zero stars if that was an option.

Long running time for a horror movie and took too long to get to any point of the story and no set up of main characters. Acting is ok, scenes could be slimmed down and editted better. The acting and dialogue is slow and a lot of silent air between dialogue. Better script writing to make the dialgue with more substance. To much hand held and better production for audio levels and lighting. Scenes are drawn out and to long. Thirty eight minutes in and just starting to get to the back story or plot of the movie, but not even explaining anything yet. The poster is better than the production and more exciting.

Plot

After a traumatic accident during vacation, five friends make the fatal mistake of dumping their victim's body. But exactly one year later, Someone or something is back for revenge and it's looking for more than an apology.

Cast

Not familiar with anyone involved, though looking through the writer/directors credits yeesh! That's a lot of stuff you don't even need to watch to know it's going to be terrible.

Verdict

I was surprised to see that this at time of initially going on to My Little Nightmare's page that it hadn't even reached 5 ratings in order to acquire an average. I mean the cover art is very professional, it looks like that could easily belong to an Insidious/Conjuring movie!

The first thing I noticed was the run time, this seemed long. I have no issue with long films, but they need to be able to justify it and simply too many have excessive quantities of filler to pad it out and that irreparably damages the movie. Is this one such film? Yeah, yeah it really is.

Telling a story we've seen somewhere between 1k-1.5k times it needed to throw us a curveball, a twist, something to set it apart from all the other movies with exactly the same concept. Did it? Absolutely, not.

Feeling cheap throughout, with appalling death scenes, zero originality and very little to get the viewer engaged My Little Nightmare promises a lot but delivers little.

The sad thing is I wanted to like it, but simply couldn't for more reasons than I'd like to admit.

I'd say nice try, but it really wasn't.

Rants

My rant caused the review to be declined, so I'll just applaud the creator for certain character choices and leave it at that.

The Good

Solid cover art I see what the creators were trying to do

The Bad

No originality Considerably too long Weak death scenes Feels very cheap at times.
