The Fear Chamber

Movie was kind of generic with lots of blood and gore as you can imagine I don't know when these people will figure out blood and gore does not make a movie. It really had no plot the only two characters the main guy and the police buddy made you remember the movie other than that they were all forgettable characters that didn't mean anything and as far as that supernatural crap going on nobody ever proved or disproved he saw anything it was interesting at the end of the movie The Lady he thought he saw at the bar turned out he got a heart transplant from her supposedly a lot of unbelievable stuff here that was the only piece of the puzzle that came together but didn't really make sense I wouldn't watch this movie again.

Okay, again, Night Light Films tried to cash in on "Saw" with a serial killer... well that's not completely true. "Saw" mixed in with that one urban legend that's popularly set in South America.

So yeah, like Jigsaw he does this "to help people". Thing is organ harvesters, if they rally exist, are in it for the money. It's just not convincing that this killer's motive is to help the people whose money he benefits from.

Granted, this is one of those films where you can actually see where it went wrong for the most part, but of course there's other stuff they added in that's supposed to be poetic or symbolic or something and what it in fact ends up being is really annoying.

Some guy is performing a vivisection on a girl. Other girls are chained elsewhere in the facility. Some lame cop arrives, the guy escapes, the cop chases him. On the roof the bad guy manages to stab a knife in the cop's heart.

Later the cop is recovering from a heart transplant. Of course he doesn't want to just get well, he wants to get the bad guy now. Helping him is the forensic pathologist who discovers some interesting bits of info here and there based on evidence found on the discovered body parts.

At a bar he meets a psychic who wants to help. She appears here and there without notice and always having some advanced knowledge of something. At some point he has yet another chance to catch the bad guy but again he escapes. Eventually the captain of course takes the cops badge and gun. That seems to be a daily occurrence at police precincts--only in the movies. We learn that the bad guy is actually a physician who removes organs. But he's also a little wacky as we learn when the cop eventually confronts him. Then we learn not just what the crazy doc is up to but also what is going on with the psychic and the cop.

The Fear Chamber starts out pretty good with a gritty gory scene with some nudity but then it turns into a low budget cop thriller. The main cast is good, with Tyson standing out in the role of the bad guy, whom we don't see enough though. The guy playing the cop and the captain are alright. The story is good when it comes the the explanation of the evil actions and the explanation of the more supernatural elements surrounding the cop. Unfortunately the movie is hampered by the low budget, cheesy sets, slow story development, and the inability to give us some more horror, gore, nudity.

Well, in a nutshell, lots of no names with a soggy plot. Who are most of these people? The drinking problem storyline is way overdone! It was a good concept, but not enough attention to who they cast in the flick. I wish the cover photo was more detailed, it just looks like a scribbled drawing from a middle schooler with issues. There was some 'would be'scary moments, but its 2008, even youtube clips are scary if the watcher is caught off guard, right? Made for t.v, maybe but a motion picture? It's mainly D list at best. (maybe E, lol)I am not a pro critic, this is just my opinion. Don't get me wrong...I love horror movies, but this movie is a horror!

What first hit me was that this is such a brilliant movie. Then I watched the other 60 minutes and it all faded away.

The director of this movie has done a lot of TV stuff and will probably have to stay with that. The cast is a laugh because they are mixing good performance with old TV stars that should have retired or just stayed with TV.

The plot is excellent, the effects are really scary. But the long drown out discussions should have been cut out to make a better flow to the movie.

The biggest mistake they made in this movie is to concentrate on the lead character's drinking problems and if his boss is gonna believe the star characters visions again, and again and again.

This is a pretty good movie that is obviously made fore TV and should stay there.

But with just a little more effort it could have been a very good movie.

It's good, but its just not making it. How ever its not a waste of time.

But it could have been so much more !!!!!
