Older Gods

This had a couple of decent scenes but was overburdened with inane dialogue and far too much exposition that didn't actually expose anything. The dialogue from the friends narrative is long slow tedium. This did have potential but needed a few more rewrites to pare it down to just the useful and interesting an eliminate the pseudo pretentious drivel that only serves to lengthen the film. The ancillary characters who appear as voices don't come across as realistic at all but as amateurish. There is just too much chatter that seems like padding the run time. This may have been suited to be a 30 minute short.

I think it has some nice points to this film, but in some ways it missed the mark to have the right tone for a Lovecraften horror. The set up was great, investigation of what happened to a friend when investigating some cult like activies works.

But it had to much drama, and not enough horror. Some moments had good tension, but overall it wasn't there as much as it could have been. Some of the dream stuff was pretty cool though, and the cinematography was nice. There were some beautiful locational shots too.

I also think with it being cult linked there could have been more cultists stalking the lead. But one guy messing with you isn't really as scary as it could be.

Ok, this goes out to all of you movie ppl. Car alarms are wicked fn annoying. Set the thing off, then shut it off. There's no need to let it run for a minutes. There's nothing going on there but you annoying the shite out of your audience. Seriously. {facepalm} Otherwise, the concept was good. I love a good alternative history jont. Good actors, good story, directing could have been better {see facepalm}. What I don't get is, you get these producers to back you and you have the time and ability to make a movie, and 95/100 times, they suck. But this one on its slim budget was good. Thanks for the trip!

I was surprised how much I liked this but I did!

I doubt that friday the 13th / freddy / scream slasher horror fans will like it that much as its thoughtful and slower paced. It replaces gore with mystery and emotion. Its basically a drama with horror elements as its very creepy in a couple of scenes.

I think it was pretty ambitious for a low budget and I was always intrigued.

I thought Rory Wilson did a great job as the lead, its difficult to essentially be the only person who talks through an entire film but I thought he carried the film well.

I think if you go into this understanding knowing what it it (slower, thoughtful, creepy) rather than expecting a monster movie or something, you'll like it.

My girlfreind found this on amazon as we try to find low budget gems and we were pleasantly surprised wit this one. I thought it would be monsters etc but it was a good story with a few scary scenes and the acting was good. Lots of good shots and the nightmare scenes we nicely weird. Its all about atmosphere rather than a million monsters jumping out on you. Like how all the questions werent answered. Be interesting to see a prequel of what happened to his friend as the backstory there was interesting. Think im going to watch it again as like to see if it gave away some clues earlier in the film.
