If She Screams

This was by far the worst movie I have ever sat through. I only paid $1.25 for it and I feel disgusted that I was ripped off. Flashback was laughable, horrible editing, horrible cinematography, and the director clearly had no concept of filmmaking. Acting was horrible. Just a stupid film. I don't believe in book burning and respect everyone has different tastes, but it actually felt good to throw the disc away instead of donating it. Just really baaaaaaad. I watched it till the end just to see if there was anything redeemable about it, and the end was just as inconsistent and disrespectful to filmmaking as any of the rest of the film.

I stumbled upon the 2021 horror mystery "If She Screams" by random luck here late in 2022. Needless to say that I had never heard about the movie, but I was somewhat intrigued by the movie's cover. And with it being a horror movie that I hadn't already seen, of course I opted to give it a chance.

Writer Judah Ray managed to churn out a script and storyline that fell entirely short of entertaining me. There was nothing interesting going on in the storyline, and the narrative fell into a slump and never really picked up momentum. And I have to say that the flaccid character gallery and amateurish acting performances weren't exactly doing their part to sell director Stephen Garnett's movie.

I wasn't familiar with the cast ensemble in "If She Screams", but what I witnessed on the screen wasn't exactly top of the line performances. Normally I do enjoy watching unfamiliar and new talents on the screen, as they are not associated with other movies and previously portrayed characters, but I have to say that I found no enjoyment in "If She Screams".

For a horror movie then director Stephen Garnett wasn't exactly hitting a home run. This was a somewhat amateurish attempt at making a horror movie. There was nothing scary or worthwhile about this ordeal of a movie.

My rating of "If She Screams" lands on a two out of ten stars.

I decided to review as most reviews are not doing justice to this. It is a watchable Horror comedy with a decent plot that keeps you interested. The acting, editing, is according to the budget, and watchable.

Cleavage is shown at regular intervals. The plot line intertwines the present time with a similar event that had happened 2 centuries back. There are regular flashbacks which makes the story more interesting.

I was expecting to liberally use fast forward button, but the plot-line kept me intrigued to know what happens next. There is never a dull moment in the film and it continues moving at a decent pace. The lead actress is pretty and keeps the viewer interested. Being a horror genre fan, I can see several ways to improve the film, but it is what it is at this budget.

Overall rating : 6/10.

Loved it. Every bit of it. Great acting, directing and lots of really great scenes. Overall for a independent movie I thought it was very well done compared to alot of the stuff that comes out every week in Hollywood.

This was just God Awful. Seriously, did a five year old write this? It was just just horrible. Just when you think Hollywood cant make a worse movie then the last, some clown writer and director say hold my beer. Plus the casting people should be banned from Hollyweird. Nowhere in the cast is there a Heather or was there any reference to a Yoga Girl lmao. This whole movie was just so bad with zero direction. You spend the whole movie wondering what in the heck was the party in the beginning about. Then they finally answer that nonsense in the end, but it's just so stupid. Cracks me up fools gave this a 10. One clown said the marissa stole the show. I dont think so. They should have shown Audrey neal and Lily naked and i wouldve gave this a two.
