End of the Road

So, this has some pretty putrid ratings, despite more than 30% of the reviews giving it a perfect 10 point "greatest ever" rating. So why is it listed with a 2.5? How is that even possible? I'm guessing that IMDb realized that the 10's are done by the production staff and they tossed them out.

So, what is the quality of it? I'd rate it as SyFy channel grade. Yes, I could see this as one of those movies sandwiched between "Titanoboa meets Godzilla" and "The Monster Alligator From Space." So how did this turkey get made? As it is a "show within a show" movie, my guess is that somebody at some drunken party had an idea for how to make a movie that was SO cheap that it HAD to make a profit. As such, I've seen a whole lot worse. I rated it a 4 because there is no 3.5, which is what I'd give it if I could. It definitely ranked above a 2.5 in production values, acting and originality.

I've had the opportunity to review the screener before the film was released, and was pleasantly surprised. End of the Road has some names you'll know like Doug Jones and Robert Picardo, but also some I've never heard of. At first this film seems like it's going to deliver just what is expected, a film about some ghost hunters, but without spoiling anything, I can tell you "watch it til the end", because I'm guessing you won't have seen it coming. I doubt this film had a big budget to work with, but it seems like they made every penny count. Really solid performances and story without all the H'wood cheesiness from the studio films. Check it out.

Not what I was expecting, but in a good way. And it's not a FF film, which bumped up the over all rating.

Fun twist on the reality TV ghost hunting genre.

Although there does seem to be some confusion regarding the name of the movie. I found it on Amazon under the title "1, 2, 3... Scream"

Stars are given based on my personal enjoyment of the film and plot.

8- Good movie, I'd give it another watch in the future.

This film was a rather pleasant surprise. I watched it online via Amazon, but would love to get my hands on a copy of the DVD, as I feel this is a film worth owning.

I watched this film initially because of the cast, and they didn't disappoint. The characters were compelling and believable with appropriate reactions to their scenarios.

While the overall acting was strong, it was the clever writing and story that kept me hooked. The ending has a major twist that I didn't see coming - and this is coming from a person who can typically guess the entire plot within ten minutes of a film. It is more a comedy than a horror to me, but there's definitely a few scenes with intensity and 'shocks'. Well worth the watch!

If I can rate this 0 stars I would! No wonder I've never seen these actors in anything else. Awful awful awful!
