El Espíritu

It's good to see Halloween 4 director Dwight Little and Halloween 4 actress Danielle Harris working together again here, and with a movie taking place during Halloween, but this movie doesn't come close to that classic. Very confusing and I did not like the ending. The whole witch (at least I guess that's what Natty Knocks is because they never fully explain) made no sense to me. How/why did she become one, and the flashback in the beginning makes me question: since when did they burn women/witches in 1976?? Perhaps in 1676, but definitely not 1976! Then we have plot holes and sudden jumps from one thing to another with filler missing. Toeard the end, I'm pretty sure a character from earlier suddenly shows up where he wasn't even there a moment before. Just very confusing and hard to follow. And I did not like the end.

I love films and especially horror films and it's very rare I turn a film off but I just had to. The acting wasn't good, nothing had happened and what had been on in the first 30 muns was rubbish and makes no sense.

I thought this would be good as I'm a huge Halloween fan and love them all but I have no Idea what the point of this film is and where it was even going.

This is probably the lowest I've ever given but it's just bad and like I said bad enough to turn off. I literally wouldn't waste your time with this but I am a strong believer as each to your own so what I don't like others may but this certainly wasn't for me.

I came across this whole looking for a movie to stream. While I am a big fan of Richer Englund bill Moseley and Danielle Harris. I was not a big fan of this movie. But not due to the lack of bad acting or actors or even the cinematography. But they the storyline of the movie itself. The beginning of the movie had nothing to do with the rest of the entire film. The second act of the movie had nothing to do with the end of the film either. And the third act of the movie spouted out a whole bunch of nonsense that made the movie make even less sense than the rest of it. But overall I've seen far worse movies.

I watch a ton of horror films, especially on Tubi. Roughly 80% are so boring or just plain bad that I either fall asleep or turn them off. So I had really low expectations for this but figured I'd check it out. It turned out to be far better than anticipated. The story isn't totally original, but it's got enough different elements that it doesn't feel stale. The cast, especially the girl who plays the babysitter, do a pretty solid job. Bill Moseley is creepy as always. Not sure why so many people seem confused as to what is happening and when. It's pretty clear throughout. And I liked the ending, as it kept the film from being too predictable. So if you like standard 70s-80s B horror with slasher themes (but not much actual gore), you can do far worse than this movie.

I had not heard about this 2023 horror movie titled "Natty Knocks", prior to sitting down to watch it. But seeing that the movie had Bill Moseley and Robert Englund on the cast list, and it being a horror movie that I hadn't already seen, of course I had to sit down and watch it.

Well, the storyline in "Natty Knocks", as written by Benjamin Olson, turned out to be a rather mediocre and generic one. Sure, "Natty Knocks" was watchable for what it was, but Benjamin Olson brought nothing to the horror genre that hasn't been seen or done before in other movies, and more often done better and more successfully. So yeah, the overall impression of "Natty Knocks" was a bland and mediocre one. It is a movie that came and went without leaving any lasting impression, and come next week, I will most likely have forgotten about it.

The acting performances in "Natty Knocks" were actually fair enough. And yeah, it certainly was good to see the likes of Bill Moseley and Robert Englund, two horror icons, together on the screen, though they had nothing much to work with in terms of script, characters and storyline.

Visually then "Natty Knocks" was a very mundane movie. There were special effects, sure, but they were hardly memorable or outstanding.

"Natty Knocks" is the type of movie you watch once, then shelf it and never look at it again.

My rating of director Dwight H. Little's 2023 horror movie "Natty Knocks" lands on a four out of ten stars.
