Don't bother

I feel bad slagging this film. It's like badmouthing a grammar school play. This is not a real movie. It's cheap digital video with poor production values and sub-sub-par acting. Somehow this is appearing as a recommended film on netflix. And it has a 4+ star review rating there. It is artificially inflated. I warn you not to bother. Not because it's terrible, but because it's not a movie. It's someone's goofy little project.

As I said, I feel bad slagging it. But I chose to do so because I felt cheated by Netflix for recommending this to me. One might come to the conclusion that there is "fishy business" going on in the over-inflated review scores on netflix.

It's not a bad movie, in fact, it's not a movie at all. Don't bother.

And one more time - don't bother

Indie Film at Its Best? No.

A group of LA twenty-somethings are lured out of the city and out into the wilderness in search of a rave...

This film has possibly the lowest rating of any film I have seen in a long time. For whatever reason, Netflix suggested it to me with a very high probability of my liking it. But I knew in the first two minutes that it was a bad movie. Thanks, Netflix.

The volume of speech versus music is obnoxious, the plot is terrible until the second half. In fact, the first half spends a good deal of time focusing on a rave that nobody care about. The special effects are nothing to brag about (and the film almost could have been better if they never used any effects at all). I was hoping the old, grainy look would add atmosphere... but it did not.

Failure, failure, failure.

Bad - Just plain bad

What can be said about this movie that hasn't already been stated? It really is badly done. The main villain in the film is laughably oafish. I wouldn't fear him in the scariest of situations!

There just isn't much going for this film. Bad dialogue, horrible editing, and worse acting; this film contained all the necessities of a qualifying to be a feature presentation on Mystery Science Theater 3000. I wanted to make a little cut-out version of Joel, Crow, and Tom Servo to attach to the bottom of my screen to feel like I justified sitting through 34 whole minutes of this wreckage!

I get that it's quite possibly a student film, so I couldn't give it the 1 star that it truly deserves. I give them a 3 star for their effort.

Newflash: Netflix rate-hike not due to an improved rating algorithm

I don't believe this merits another mass apology via mail, but I would be curious to read the mass detailed explanation email. I guess I am just echoing the other similar sentiments about being roped in by a "slightly"(when the example sentence in a spelling bee for the word would be "Chernobyl was slightly affected by a slightly under maintained nuclear reactor.") overrated horror flick. When you've exhausted Netflixs' international catalog down to at least 2.5 stars, it raises hopes, or it certainly did mine. The most interesting moment for me came during the credits when it was revealed one of the actors only looked like a high school classmate (barring a name change, which would have been highly presumptuous by any of this movie's cast members).

If you like student films, this is on par with one.

Like others, I found this film through Netflix, with an exceptional rating for a horror movie. Honestly, I suppose it could be worse, but right from the get-go it has that "student film" quality about it. The actors appeared untrained, the special effects were terrible, and the entire movie looked like it could have been made on a budget of $500 or less.

As someone who has acted in a number of student films, I found it entertaining, but it doesn't deserve credit as a professional movie, and it definitely doesn't deserve four stars on Netflix. As an amateur film, it's not bad. It might even be worth watching for a couple chuckles, but if you're looking for a good movie that actually scares you, this is not the movie for you.

As an amateur film, I give it 7.5/10, but as a professional film I give it 1/10.
