Ayla

Don't bother... just a whole waste of time if you actually wanted something interesting and scary... this fails on every aspect of a decent film. Poor characters, bad acting, and worse story...left wondering 'what the heck!?'... why did I bother... turned off half way through.

Brother and dead sister sexual tension with a "wait, was that the ending?"

There are very few, if any, redeeming qualities in this movie. I think they had a good idea for a movie (something similar to a "Sometimes They Come Back"), but it never came together. The movie would go from one scene to the other, without any real transitioning. Therefore, it can leave one a bit confused. You may find yourself asking yourself, "How did we get here?" Even the ending some abruptly.

It appears to be a low budget film, so I get the notion "you get what you pay for," but the acting in this is seriously bad. I am trying to figure how they got Dee Wallace to be in this.

I saw this rated as a horror movie, but I don't see any element of a horror movie. I do not think a movie has to be gory to be a horror movie, but it has nothing: no gore, no spiritual warfare, no conjuring, no demons or witchcraft, nothing. I do not know what I was watching.

Along with the credits at the end, they should also issue an apology to anyone who watched it.

OK - so this film isn't going to appeal to the gore fans, but it is a decent film to watch.

It is very well acted, the technical aspects are spot-in, and the story - well - it's almost there but not quite.

This film moves along at a leisurely pace, so if you have the attention span of a goldfish it won't appeal to you, and probably won't if you are looking for light entertainment.

This film will appeal to you if you like a story where you can get to know/understand more of the characters than just the superficial scream-fest characters we see in so many other films.

One thing does let this film down very badly, and that it the ending. I just don't know what they were thinking ending a film like this.

The premise seemed to grab the attention of many. While knowing it was a lower budget film but thinking it could be decent given the premise and concept, in the end "Ayla" doesn't offer much and is disappointing.

The film sounded relatively different but what we watched was a slow paced, confusing, and quite dull drama. Labeled as a horror thriller, there aren't any thrills or real scares. The horror aspect is from the "bringing back from the dead" and supernatural type elements.

The lead actor wasn't very convincing. Tristan Risk as Ayla was the standout yet she wasn't given much to do. The mother was quite annoying.

As an independent film, the writer/director could have went far more over the top and all out crazy. It was relatively tame. Expected more crazy, more bizarre and more off the wall.

Also the ending was not clear and was severely underdeveloped and disappointing.
