The Deep Web: Murdershow

This move is weird and awfully good . The silent so much during scenes not knowing what's going on or what's gonna happen but the next scene if even better . I'm a horror and gory movies lover and this what a little bit of mix of both but with a less budget in some scenes . Not all of them but still thrilling and suspenseful at the same time . I would definitely recommend this movie to anybody bc it's it particularly good if you pay attention and watch the movie how it is. Definitely can watch this movie over And over again at any family gathering or October season which is scary movies season.

While I had never heard about writer and director Dan Zachary's 2023 horror movie "The Deep Web: Murdershow" prior to stumbling upon it, I needed not persuasion to watch it given my love and fascination with all things horror. And without knowing what I was in for here, The Deep Web: Murdershow had every opportunity to entertain and impress me.

Writer Dan Zachary put together a script and storyline that proved to be entertaining. Sure, he was using some stereotypical horror tropes, and it was a bit predictable perhaps, but the movie proved to be enjoyable and entertaining nonetheless.

I didn't know that Brendan Fletcher was in the movie, so that was a nice surprise. Especially since I was just wondering about whether he had been starring in any movies recently the other day. The acting performances in the movie were good.

There were some pretty visceral scenes in the movie, which I found to be a nice surprise. And the effects looked rather good, which added to the overall enjoyment of the movie. "The Deep Web: Murdershow" actually had enough blood and violence in it to keep a seasoned horror veteran such as myself adequately entertained.

"The Deep Web: Murdershow" proved to be a rather enjoyable horror movie, and I was genuinely entertained throughout the course of the 81 minutes that the movie ran for.

My rating of writer and director Dan Zachary's "The Deep Web: Murdershow" lands on a well-deserved six out of ten stars.

Poor choices made by both the casting crew, directors, writers, and me for sitting through it hoping there would be an unpredictable twist somewhere.

But, no. Poor acting, genre tries to hit suspense, dark comedy, gore and drama but misses all of them in the process. Scenes not particularly well shot. No satisfying conclusion.

The script and flow could have benefitted from an entire overhaul, in all honesty. Many questions left unanswered which don't seem to be a case of 'viewer can surmise their own personal outcome here' type questions.

Only thing that drew me in initially was the title - unfortunately the film totally missed the mark, when there was so much potential there.

Terrible acting, terrible scenario.

Its obvious that they dont know anything about dark web, cti, osint, malwares etc. You should have hired a real cyber security consultant that specialized in cti, dark web and cybercrime.

Firstly these type of groups cant perform consistent physical activities in areas that includes cameras in all streets/stores. Even the base stations would be enough to track these type of criminals.

Especially in US/Europe this kind of consistent kidnapping, murder and physical stalking is not possible. This type of consistent crime that involves physical and cyber activity can only be possible in decentralized groups(i mean in different countries different killers same streaming platform) or 3rd world countries.

Even the phone scene. How the f this man's phone hacked without any interaction. Its only possible with Pegasus spyware and these type of groups cant have the access to that malware.

Low budget Indy's are tricky. Because you are limited by your budget, you need to cut corners. You can't hire A list actors, nor can you purchase the best locations, makeup artists, etc.

These limitations hold you back but you try to over deliver in the places you can.

The late director Dan Zachary didn't deliver the most ground breaking script, there's a second act sag which happens after Ethan learns of his sisters death which slows the movie down, but once the detective work and mystery about what or who the murdershow is begins things start to pick up the pace which leads to a well executed finale.

Dans trio of creepy clown like villains are well thought out and designed. You can even find their masks at your local costume shop if you are lucky.

It is this creativity on display which makes the film fun and unique.

Brendan Fletcher plays shadowmonkey and he steals the show with his over the top antics. And what can I say about Kimi Alexander. She starts off as a victim and quickly turns into a kick ass heroine in the same league as Laurie Strode, or Nancy from A nightmare on elm street. Aiden Howard might be the weakest link in the cast, shining in moments and sometimes not as convincing as one would like.

If you like a quick horror flick on a dark night and can get through that second act sag this movie will deliver for you.
