Incubus

I could not even get through this film. It had to be turned off. I tried to give Tara the benefit of the doubt since I had recently watched Devil's Pond and found it mildly enjoyable but this is just the worst film I have tried to watch in a long time. The acting and dialog are beyond corny and laughable.It's B-grade in terms of premise and execution.The concept of the film is so far-fetched its hard to even get into,I will venture to say its impossible to get into. Also, who ever dressed Tara in that see-through top needs to be exiled from working in film. The movie description makes you think you will see a nice Nightmare on Elm Street homage or something along those lines but trust me, you wont. the only horror about this film is the fact you have to pay to watch it. -the positive ratings here are obviously done by someone associated with the film, check their comment histories-

I was looking forward to this movie, it sounded decent.. I had a hard time, though, getting past Tara Reid's constant look of pain, or of having something stuck up her butt for the entire movie. Also the continuity was a bit lacking to say the least. One scene Tara's bright blue shirt showed off her itsy bitsy teensy whiter than white bra, and in the next one you can hardly see through the shirt, her bra is much more covering and not so white, then we go back to the first one and shes bouncing almost out of her shirt, then back to the more solid sturdy version. What the??? Also the bloodstains near the end kind of got bigger then smaller, then bigger again, and I really just had to frown and wonder why I tried to stay awake for the whole 87 or so minutes...

"Incubus" starring the always lovely Tara Reid, is a direct to internet, direct to DVD horror flick. In other words don't expect much. Six incredibly stupid friends are lost in the woods, duh! And seek shelter in an apparently abandoned compound. The only smart one, pay attention to her folks!, decides to risk the outdoors. Reid, playing Jay, her brother, a very irritating actor I don't know, and 3 others go inside. Ala, the descent to hell.

Inside is a man called the Sleeper, you dream, he takes your body, and kills. The director creates some good atmosphere and Tara does manage some good moments of "oh my God?" Basically this was a bad script. The story makes less and less sense as it goes. There are some good scares and some heavy gore, but when they finally go off on the killer the film collapses.

Supposedly the Sleeper has been held in stasis for five years, still once loose he jumps around like super-fly and takes people out~! Hello, five years? Wouldn't your muscles atrophy a bit? The end comes down to Tara and the killer as you must have known. This gets confusing. In a film with a plot like "Nightmare on Elm Street" I expected some good fantasy/dream sequences. There is only one, right near the end and its good, but it leaves you wanting much more. There is a nice final twist, which I won't give away, but its not quite enough to make up for about an hour of sludge.

"Incubus"-the title is explained fairly well- isn't the most horrible thing I've seen, but it could have been a whole lot better. There isn't enough back story given to make us care and there isn't enough of Tara shown if your wondering. This is for die-hard horror fans only and even then I hope it just inspires you to make a good flick of your own.

...why did you go down the dark tunnel into the creepy, weird place that looks like an old insane asylum that even the police don't go, then this is the film for you. For me, when an actor says "What's that?" and another replies "It looks like a kind of time machine" I say "This looks like $hit." And that's what I say about this movie. It's crap and whoever made it should be banned from ever making a movie again.....and Tara and the cast should be required to attend acting lessons. Here's the deal: You drop down an opening and then, instead of going back up that opening, you try to find another way out...in the meantime, some weird guy is manipulating your friends. You know this, and can stop it, but you don't. Why? How many times did I think 'go back there and climb out'?...Uh, each time I thought about it. DO NOT PAY TO SEE THIS MOVIE!! IT IS CRAP It's on par with a Troma production. If you know what that means, you'll either love it or hate it. If you don't, then you'll probably hate it.

This is worst horror movie I have seen in a while. Story line is just awful, it feels like the director heard some stuff about astral traveling then some stuff about incubus and thought that he will have super storyline, he was wrong.. Acting? It feels like movie director got the worst actors available, I heard this movie had 5 million budget? Like what the hell? It looks like 10 000$ movie. Anyway, I strongly suggest to not to watch this movie, I feel that I have wasted my time big time. Its more like comedy, I actually laughed instead of being horrified.
