Boarding School

I have to say this was a very odd film. But I was blown away by two particular young actors: Nicholas J Oliveri and Christopher Dylan White. Never heard of either but extremely impressed by both. Luke Prael is very good too. But the only reason I am commenting at all on this film is because of awesome performance given by Nicholas and Christopher. You'll just have to watch it to see why,

This is a horrish,slasherlike bloodgore movie based on deceift and lack of parental love. it is a school film,but bends of very fast to not to be.lots of madness and why did they do that-feeling hits me during the watching. the teenage cast are really good,some of the performances are brilliant ,but itis damaged by a poor screenplay.the filmography and editing saves some of the glory.,it is not a rewatch for me.

This film is a very well done, well acted, and well written. It was great to see Will Patton and Samantha Mathis as the villainous antagonists, but the two huge standout performances to me were the young Luke Prael and Sterling Jerins. I recognized Sterling Jerins from the first two "Conjuring" films, but her role in those was much smaller in comparison to this film. It was nice to see her talents utilized in a bigger, more fleshed out role as the pretty but devious Christine. Luke was a great counterpart for her, even if his character's eccentricities weren't really explained more. I also would've like to see the oddly romantic friendship between the two of them expanded on. Despite these lacking points, "Boarding School" was a good horror/thriller movie and I hope it gets some sort of following in the future.

I would not class this as a horror movie. More of a psychological thriller with horror elements. It is a strange little movie, with some good performances, but as with many films these days, doesn't explain itself well. I don't think I'm giving away a spoiler when I say a young boy has a fixation with his grandmother, it's in the promos, But this is not really expanded on enough in the movie to make sense of. He is sent to an exclusive Boarding School and things start being a bit weird. The finale scene I just found puzzling, as there had been very little other reference to it in the movie. The young lead and main character does an excellent job in a difficult role, and helps to carry this to above average.

It has been some time since I have seen a kid with such pur acting chops. I loved Luke Prael as Jacob. He really keeps us wondering what is going on in that expansive imagination/head of his. His performance was near perfect alongside some other amazing young stars; not forgetting to mention a particularly breathtaking performance from the young starlet. This is a must see for indie lovers and lovers of horror outside the box. Just watch this if you appreciate the art of acting. I foresee a long career for Prael...if he keps it up and chooses his scripts wisely he can and will become one of the greats.
