Baby Blue

Some things I liked: 1. I thought all of the cast of the teenage video crew were great - good acting makes the difference in a low budget film between being a fun, raw, cultish flick and something unwatchable. Yes, Cyrus is kind of goofy, but he pulled off the rage and the fight in the end and I really ended up liking his character.

2. They were smart to cover the baby-faced killer's face in blood throughout the movie. Otherwise it would have been hard to picture him as a killer.

3. The story was recycled, sure, but with a bunch of fun twists and retelling.

4. The little Easter Egg of mama's third t*t. That whole scene was gross, but funny.

Things that missed the mark for me: 1. Nobody seems to give a crap what happened to hutch, and there's no follow through.

2. The very last scene - Come on!

Honestly this was one of the best independent films I've seen in while. It truly had me jump a couple times and was well edited.

I wanted to watch this to see Cyrus Arnold. Loved him in Mr. Harrigan's Phone, and wanted to see him in a less mean role. He did amazingly! He sold it on the fear factor and just hit it out of the ballpark on his choices for his character's reactions.

The other cast members were great too! The siblings played well off each other. Baby Blue just was fantastic with his serial killer vibes. He kind of reminded me a bit of Ricardo "the Night Stalker" Ramirez meets Henry Bowers.

This is a cross between Smile, It Follows, The Ring and even Barbarian believe it or not. It's also a combination of tech horror/found footage/reality. It's really unpredictable and well paced, thoroughly enjoyable film!

So for once Tubi puts its hat in the ring for a (probably licensed after finished) movie that's actually good! Yay!

The plot is simple, like many neo-slashers, this is about an entity that kills. For those that haven't seen it THE ENTITY (1981) is fantastic and ahead of it's time.

No spoilers, but the movie is quick paced, funny at parts and the plot is well constructed as well and has some good creepy and scary moments. 6.9/10!

I thought this was fun to watch! And entertaining enough to sustain my attention, draw me in, and engage the horror trivia fan in me. Especially since the film's horror references were right down my alley.

The aesthetic, editing, acting, writing, and pacing all landed pretty well for me. This was impressive quality suspense in some respects, with a pretty consistent uphold, though the genre does blend & vary.

It's a fresh hybrid at a break-neck pace that uses simple and done-before tropes and contrivances with such earnest tribute for storytelling, and quirky acting, that it may suspend your disbelief just enough to enjoy it.

This is a techno-horror film that references films like 'The Ring', while imitating other films like the original asian 'One Missed Call', & a slew of American horror motifs & references.

This is a modern horror vehicle for a horror film less traveled these days. And it even teeters in to comedy and surrealism. It never tries too hard, and the editing is sharp and neat.

The music drew me in, and the plot twists came with a dose of fun and squirmy suspense.

I would definitely recommend to horror fans who are willing to enjoy a wacky thrill ride, not to be scared, but just to test your knowledge of popular horror tropes seldom seen with this kind of fresh and raw audacity.

Won't blow your mind but it's certainly a bit different compared to much of the modern free nap-fuel out there these days especially in this genre. A crazy dark horror comedy with an edge. Thank you Tubi & the creators.

It's a clearly low-budgeted little indie horror flick, but they really got the most out of the moderate means. The premise is not that original (a group of not so bright youngsters who want to make it in the world of internet vlogs go on a ghost-hunting trip), it's a bit like Ghostbusters with a camera, or a Scooby-Doo episode without Scooby-Doo. But they still made a pretty decent story of it, with a serious sinister undertone and a creepy atmosphere. The few VFX were convincing enough, it has a good pace, and the acting was fine (although the annoying August character went way over the top!). Just a pity that the actor they used for the killer didn't look in any way as menacing and horrifying as was intended, in spite of covering his face with blood smears; the sunglasses and cigarets made him look almost cute, like some defiant teen.

If anything, the writing was a bit unbalanced. The dead, but still haunting serial killer didn't get any serious background or motives for his acts. The unfortunately killed Hutch seemed to be forgotten by everyone, including the writers, as was the sister of Baby Blue who apparently still hovers in that house (or I missed some clue). Her sudden change of sides from obedient daughter to the savior of the victims came totally out of the blue. And the very last scene in the car impressed as an afterthought of the writers: hey, let's throw in something that we could use for a sequel! But there were some pretty strong scenes too: the blinded guy in the basement looked great, and the whole sequence with the deranged mother from hell and her milk-obsession was absolutely top notch!
