The Barn

It sucks. DONT EVER WATCH THIS MOVIE. It's retarted. Don't waste your time.

I accidentally watched this thinking it was The Barn from 2016. Amazon Prime has them mixed up on their Prime Video website. This movie was extremely bad, so please dont make the same mistake I did thinking its the other movie. This one is horrible.

I only watched it because I was actually born and raised in Sugar Grove, Va. I'm not sure how it is I only recently heard of the movie. I was a little disappointed by the lack of effort to make it seem authentic because the accents weren't even close to Appalachian and there are several scenes with cellphones and there's no service in Sugar Grove, which could have been useful for a horror film. Anyway, the only reason I'm here is to correct something in the trivia section. The trivia states that 37 is a little too cold for a winters day in VA which isn't true at all, we average below 30 the entire winter and often get much colder. I guess the trivia was as poorly researched as the the setting because while we're technically considered a southern state, it's quite cold in the mountains.

This has to be one of the worst movies I have ever seen.

It's almost as if several people made their own segment without knowledge of the others and then they met over beers and mashed it together. The movie opening started with a news story about an epedemic. From there, they jumped to the real story. A lot of the movie focused on the front door of the barn and the owner banging the door with a stick or similar instrument. Within the barn were several individuals that just stood around I guess to invoke fear, but actually made me wish something would happen.

A main character tried to explain in a scene that the townspeople deserved his work in taking their kids and keeping them but wasn't really clear on how putting them in a barn and banging the door with a stick was beneficial.

Acting was terrible, plot was terrible, filming was amateurish, and, it was boring.

The only thing worse would be a sequel. (Although it would be tough to be worse than this one)

I'm 51 years old and I honestly don't think I've ever watched a worse movie. I'm speechless about how bad it was.

Man traumatized by his mother's murder when he was a teen, and then by serving in the military, lives with his disturbed mute brother while feeding four zombie young adults and while a serial killer goes on a killing spree. Oh and there's a love story too, and a nosy reporter, and a shady deputy sheriff who has some history with the man and his family.

If you're like me, you'll read this review and watch it anyway.

All I can say is Don't.

Just take my word. It's not worth the time.
