The Harvesting

I like this movie, I wouldn't call it a traditional horror film but it is really eerie though. The movie was shot exceptionally well, it doesn't look like a low budget movie. There were some really beautiful sweeping shots of Amish country, which was the perfect setting for such a creepy tale. I didn't jump out of my seat, which is fine by me because I hate those types of cheap scares. There was definitely some stand out acting performances as well – I thought the kids were great. There is one scene with the little girl that has really stayed with me - totally creepy. The father character was good too, and then there was all of the Amish characters, they were good and they looked spot on.

I wish I could rate this movie higher because it's got good atmosphere, acting, and production, but it's missing something important. it's hard to put my finger on it, but the writing is weak. The fairly interesting characters spend a lot of time wandering around with very little to say and less to do. Still, it's worth watching if you've got an hour and a half that you don't mind wasting. I enjoyed it because, as a huge horror fan, I often find that good atmosphere can make up for deep flaws in a movie.

I like little horror movies that aren't trying to be standard tits and gore. It's a low-budget movie that takes advantage of stuff that doesn't actually cost more but gains a lot for the viewer: acting, mood, camera work and mystery. The story is taken very seriously even though they couldn't dazzle with big effects or stars. If you took this same movie and put it in a multi-million dollar setting and swapped either of the kids with a Disney kid or either of the adults with a sitcom actor, you'd have a major Hollywood release without changing ANY of the content or crew.

Also, the Amish. Creepy bastards. Creepy on sight.

There were "surprises" toward the end that you figure out toward the beginning. It was a story of an amish guy that has a bad childhood and decides to take his family back there to relax for the summer. Everyone has problems and the whole movie was so boring and predictable. The end was stupid and you should treat yourself to a good movie and forget about this piece of garbage. The worst was the actress playing the mother, she just walked through the movie with absolutely no emotions at all. The character was an emotionless, cheating piece of garbage. A very bad movie.

Movie is new in idea, I do not think it is inspired by others in the market... but the theme music seems pretty much inspired - rather minor tuned from the original WT6LR theme... Acting is up to the mark especially when it comes to new artists... can spend good time by watching this movie
