Impuratus

I actually made an account *specifically* for reviewing this movie as i believe the ratings are a bit unfair, the reviews are worse. Some of them make valid points, but i think others are needlessly over-critical. The one about watching it on 1.5x speed... come on, do you even like watching movies at that point?

This director hasnt made many movies. Its obviously a bit lower budget. HOWEVER, as someone who's watched hundreds of horror movies, i honestly enjoyed this. Its not perfect, but its creepy and entertaining and keeps you intrigued

i do agree with other reviewers that the plot was a bit convoluted and couldve been condensed down. In parts (the beginning, especially) the acting isnt really very good. That being said - there are many movies that have convoluted plotlines and/or bad acting that are well loved and highly rated.

TLDR; its entertaining enough, its a fun watch, a little creepy and i enjoyed it. Dont go into it expecting too much, like hollywood-tier production and john carpenter-esque screenwriting. Its decent for what it is.

Theres a good story and horror concept in here somewhere. Unfortunately, it is lost in the poor writing, excessive dialogue and excessive scene lengths.

The screenplay is weak. I actually felt like Tom Sizemore was ad libbing his lines, and improvising off the other characters.

I respect Tom Sizemore, but he's just not together in this film. His lines are not clear or appropriate for the situation and he repeats himself.

This film is shot beautifully, but there are too many scenes, and the film could have been edited by 30 minutes.

I watched it over two nights because it took so long to develop.

It would have been a really good 90- minute horror film with less dialogue and quicker pace.

I salute the concept.

The movie is simply terrible but the acting manages to be even worse. Its almost funny, like some kind of parody.

You keep asking yourself which One is the worst because they all sucks so bad, its amazing.

The idea was not new, but was decent. Some of the acting was good, most was painful. RIP Tom Sizemore, but darn, he did a terrible job. The story line was so convoluted because it didn't know whether it wanted to be a horror movie, a folk tale, or a drama. This desperately needed a better director to help it choose its genre, and it needed a better editor to cut it way down. I actually fast forwarded through many scenes just so I could get through it. It gets 4 stars because I was actually interested enough to see it through to the end, albeit by skipping a few scenes here and there. If you have nothing else to do one night, you could watch it, but be prepared to be patient and fast forward here and there!

If you are looking for people shooting 1000 yards past the effective range of a weapon from a car flying off the cliff and doing a ninja roll to escape all injury. Then this isn't the movie for you.

Just a good haunting story, that reveals itself slowly but tantalizingly. If you like actual storytelling this is your kind of movie.

The acting, directing and production is solid. It's the story itself that's compelling about this movie. Telling you much more would give away part of the story. It does roll on at it's own slow pace and deliberately pulls you back at times. There could have also been a little more clarification on a few things. That'd be my only real complaint.
