Cold Moon

Kinda your average ghostly revenge type movie where the ghost's target really has no chance at all. I mean....not really any twists involved. You can pretty much see what's coming.

Now the best part of the movie is when the credits start and it says in loving memory of Stephen Furst. Yes, we do all love 'Dorfman' and he will be in our hearts forever. Thank you Stephen Furst for your whole career and many many memorable roles. +1 Star just for that.

A Solid effort...but not quite getting there.

I think the actors deserve a better rating than the movie/script gave them. Illogical twists and mad entities included. I guess you could explain the latter with just being mean, but the way some of the characters have to behave is just plain wrong - in the wrongest sense possible.

And it's a bit of a shame because the actors really seem to give it their all. Be it Josh Stewart or anyone else from the cast. The advertising for the movie might have been missleading as some other user suggested, I never saw it, someone gave me the movie as a gift, so I went in there without any knowledge of it. I've seen worse ...

The nice thing about Cold Moon is that it near immediately gripped me, this is a movie that got my attention early on.

Set during the late 80's the tale is told of a young murdered girl and her family seeking justice while the killer is besieged by terrifying apparitions.

The film looks beautiful with a decent cast including the living legend that is Christopher (Doc Brown, Uncle fester) Lloyd.

It delivers and is a very riveting interesting piece of cinema that thoroughly fell under the radar.

Sadly it gradually loses steam and when the vague and open to interpretation ending happens and the credits roll I was left finding myself sad that a few lose endings still remained.

Cold Moon is a decent enough film, I think it could have benefited from another 30 minutes to flesh it out but kudos to all involved for a damn fine effort.

The Good:

Very impressive cinematography

Christopher Lloyd

Great sfx

Genuinely creepy

The Bad:

Feels a bit incomplete

Inconsistent in its quality

I actually enjoyed this film. I was a little put off from the 4.5 rating, but I thought the trailer looked interesting so gave it a go. It was a very strange cast, some good veteran actors and some very poor new actors which made it a little confusing sometimes. The ghosts are good, some good jump scares, even a few moments I had a few chills down my spine, but then every now and then a rubbish cgi moment. So it's best not to take this film too seriously and to just enjoy it for its entertainment purpose.

This movie came and went with apparently little notice from the general public or horror fans, unless I just missed it. I came upon it by chance almost two years after it's release so I wasn't expecting much. Set in the 80's, it's a horror ghost story about revenge. It has more than a few genre actors that you'll recognize and a decent story. I found it well-made and entertaining, certainly better than it's rating suggest. There is a bit of a murder mystery but don't expect to much depth there. Nevertheless, I recommend this one to fans of supernatural horror.
