Second Coming

just got this and I was totally surprised at how "studio quality" this film looked. I mean, they shot it for pesos or something, real low budget. Well directed, great performances (specially young Haley Boyle), a fantastic score and a weird finale. Well done, definitely worth a look. The little twins were real good, and the actor that played their father was excellent, real evil. Also, the flashback sequences were very well shot and executed.

The villain, Greg Thompson, was totally spot on, I suffer from tinnitus and his performance brought it all back. By the way, using tinnitus as part of the plot was smart, as it is a torture. Great film.

Second coming failed to capture my attention. The story was over-dramatic, poorly written and the situations were unbelievable. It seemed to have been written by someone who had never been through anything similar, and wrote about what they imagined it would be like. About a quarter of the way into the movie, I realized that the story was not interesting, and my mind started wandering. By the end of the movie, I was having to rewind just so I would be able to see what happened. And when the movie ended, I had not even realized this until about 30 seconds into the credits.

I can, however, say the camera work was well done. It's just unfortunate that the camera had to be focused on such poor acting. If visuals made a movie good, this would have been a great flick.

I rented this movie because I watch a ton of Indies and love horror. Though it wasn't scary I was surprised by how beautifully shot this film is. I appreciate the grainy, home made looking movies too. They are fun but this does not look like low budget and the acting is way better than any low budget indie I've ever seen. It's not a blockbuster like The Ring but if you can appreciate independent films than it sets a new standard. There is Lifetime movie element to the story but I thought that it was entertaining. Maybe a couple holes in the plot but the ending gave me goosebumps. I say it was worth my four dollars. Don't expect an Academy award type film. Just appreciate for what it is.

Finally got to rent this. Huge fans of indie films and huge fan of horror cheese B-grade flicks. Unfortunately this was not what I expected. I was very impressed with the quality of the production. The IMDb budget says 1.5 million, which is BS. I read on Deadlantern.com the true budget and I was shocked. Lets just say the story is a bit predictable and the effects are so so, but its actually a small indie paranormal drama with touches of gore here and there. But there is quality here. First of all, for an indie of this price range it looks awesome, very professional. I did like the whole tinnitus thing, the ringing in the ears condition, I thought that using this as part of the story was amazingly original, never heard of it before, and I watch a lot of films! Very good, good, good job, can't imagine what these guys can do with an actual budget! Also read some great reviews on this film on other sites, so I hope it does well. As a movie fan, I am always on the lookout for small quality films like this. A surprise, total surprise.

This was a movie about infidelity and revenge. A twin with the "twin" connection senses that something is wrong with her sister. This movie took forever to establish the plot. A plot that has been done many times. The acting was lousy for the most part. Once the plot comes together, the movie ends. Laura and Ashley are twins that live with an abusive father. The father seems to favor Ashley, so Laura gets the blame for everything. There is a promise made that the girls would never be apart, but as they grow up, their lives go in different directions. Ashley gets a job in a diner where she meets Barry, a married man. Of course no good can come of this. The fact that Barry had tinnitus was a poor excuse for a way to track him down. I kept waiting for this movie to get better and for there to be some resolution somewhere, but it never happened.
