La granja

Other than the absolutely stupid last scene at the table which wasn't needed and the baby death which was also not needed (could have been implied instead) this isn't as bad as others have said. In fact I watched to the end with ease. It's a good premise, see what animals lives are like as they are slaughtered. Sadly it didn't make me not want to eat meat, though I can see why if you were thinking about it you might just stop. Other than the terrible actress who played Nora, I liked that the animal masks didn't speak. It made it much creepier and unnerving. In fact that was what made the film a 5 for me. If you had the usual hillbilly language of ma and pa it would have been one giant cliche. The filming was good and the sets and score were really good for a budget film. Other than a few bad moments this was definitely not the crap film I expected it to be at all. In fact I'd tell you to ignore the other review scores and give it a go.

The acting is that of a typical low budget movie. That said, there were little "surprises" or "horror" in this movie. Most of what should be on-screen horror-wise happens off screen. The narrative and plot are all over the place and many of the scenes are disjointed. Without adding spoilers there are many scenes where you will be scratching your head asking how did he/she get here/there? How did he/she do that? It seemed more like a PETA commercial that was drawn out over 80 minutes and not enough story to fill it.

I like horror movies, mostly even the rubbish ones hold some sense of creepiness and horror. However this one was just boring. The idea behind this film is weird and messed up but as horror value goes there just wasnt any. I just wanted it to end due to it being uneventful. They could have done so much more with this.

Zero stars, I'm not impressed, not one little bit! Theres two hours of my life I'll never get back! Dont bother.

The plot itself is quite original and the concept is good but it's poorly executed. It tries to educate the viewers about the way humans treat animals like food, but the lack of dialogue throughout the movie and underdeveloped lead characters makes it rather a splatter film with no substance despite having a deep rooted message. it has a friendly runtime but it felt long due to drawn out scenes that serve no purpose at all. There's only little tension generated even when the protagonists are apparently in danger. The ending is shocking but a bit ridiculous.

However, the movie managed to create a creepy atmosphere, thanks to the good production design. The gore effects are realistic and very disturbing to watch to some extent. The score is hard-hitting and the acting is pretty decent. Overall, the farm had the potential and concept to be a good movie but fails at execution.

I liked the premise and the ideas involved but the execution is so poor!

The acting is amateurish, the writing is lazy, the gore is boring (I didn't know it could be) and nothing about it is cohesive.

One scene made me think the film was about to go nuts and explode into something horribly entertaining, but BABY did they miss a trick here.
