The Forest Hills

Shelley Duvall (rest her soul) and Edward Furlong. Yes they're in it and they add very little. One of the worst movies I've seen in my life. They're a few scenes of dialog that make me laugh and I'm not sure it's intentional. Other than that there's not much to offer and I can't believe I watched this in theatres. The fact that there were 4 people in the theatre including me says something. It's not worth a watch and in my humble opinion it's a disgrace to Edward Furlong career and the memory of Duvall. It's not even campy good it's just a waste of space. I think they used Duvall and Furlong's names to increase the popularity of this movie. Trash.

I had high hopes for this one. I've been looking forward to it for months. Unfortunately, it didn't deliver as much as I wanted it to. The movie stars Rico, and is basically a solo performance. Not saying the actor is bad or anything, just saying I had hoped for more screen time of Eddie Furlong- I'm hoping he makes a full comeback one day. Shelley Duvall is barely in it. Actually paid to rent it off Amazon prime. It wasn't the worst five dollars I've ever spent. If you're an Eddie Furlong or Shelley Duvall fan and you go in with low expectations, you'll have a decent time. Just don't hope for too much.

I was excited to see Shelly's last performance. That excitement ended within about 2 minutes of watching the movie. The acting is terrible, the writing is nonsensical, and there's not much positive to say about this movie. There were 3 other people in the theater. They walked out about 20 minutes into it. My wife and I followed suit about 10 mins after they walked out. I can't recall the last time I walked out of a movie.

I'm saddened that this is Shelly's last movie. She was a wonderful actor, and she deserved so much more.

This movie goes to show that big names do not equate to a good movie. .

This is not a good movie. The actors in this movie are not good. There are some famous names in this movie. They do not do a good job. Some people rated this movie 10 stars. These are not smart people. 10 stars means this movie is almost perfect, a classic like The Godfather, ET, Jaws, etc. This movie is nowhere close to any of those.

This feels like a totally amateur affair. This is not always a bad thing but, in this case, it is. The concept is fine and I actually like the idea, but the execution is a bit off. Even the performances of the seasoned actors are flat and uninspired. The special effects are decent enough but it's not enough to make this worth watching.

I feel like a lot of the people will misunderstand this movie on the first viewing. The poster would lead you to believe that it's a supernatural werewolf film, when really it's a look into someone's rapid mental deterioration into madness. There are solid performances from the cast, especially Shelly Duval in what would be her last film role. But also a surprisingly nuanced performance from Edward Furlong. The narrative is possibly the biggest dealbreaker for people and it's uneven and confusing, but it's told from an unreliable narrator. Go in it with an open mind and solve the puzzle yourself.
