Avis à la une
While the idea behind this low budget horror-thriller certainly is intriguing.
The execution is really quite bad.
As the acting- including from Breaking Bad star RJ Mitte- is particularly dreadful.
With a poorly constructed plot.
And writing that is mediocre at best.
The whole thing comes off as a film school project.
Which is a shame.
Because, given a bigger budget, and some more seasoned direction...it could have had potential.
The main problem I had with it all...is the dubious psychology around which the entire story is based.
It's never fully explained.
While the paranormal aspect of it is incredibly confusing.
On top of this, the sequences flashing back to highschool either needed to be redone...or scrapped altogether.
Because they just don't work.
It's just not believable watching these mid 30's actors pawn themselves off as teenagers.
With the act Mitte's character has repressed making literally no sense whatsoever.
Which kind of ruins everything.
Because, while they do adequately explain it via several twists.
The fact he wouldn't have gone to the police about it just isn't plausible.
So, using it as the crux of the storyline was an incredibly poor decision, in my opinion.
As it squanders what little the film had going for it.
Which wasn't much to begin with.
You can tell they thought they were being clever with the multi-twist ending.
But it's hard not be upset by it's fatal flaw.
Because it was totally possible to rework the entire plot, around the ending, so as to completely avoid these complications.
Making it all feel a bit lazy...or, at the very least, forced.
Because...while you might not see the ending coming.
It's just not a rewarding experience.
And felt like they drew the conclusion out a bit long for what it was.
When they could have ended on a high note.
But it is what it is.
3 out of 10.

I had high hopes for this after seeing that RJ Mitte was attached to it. I've always been a fan of his since Breaking Bad and was hoping this film would be something worthwhile. Sadly, I was massively letdown.
The performances were bland and at times forced but bad writing certainly doesn't help. The actors can only salvage so much from this train wreck of a movie. The writing is so boring and atrocious - the writer should take classes on how to better explore plot elements and subtext more effectively. The dad's performance is one note as well as the mom and sister.
The cinematography is student film level, the directing lacks any sense of focus or coherence, and the special effects are laughable.
All in all, just avoid this film if you can. It's not worth paying one penny to watch it.

I wish I could give this film 0 stars, but at least a few performances salvage an otherwise horrible viewing experience. RJ Mitte does his best to navigate this contrived story and my favorite supporting character would be the one played by Candice Rose.
The plot is unambiguous and dull, most likely due to poor writing and execution. If you gave any money to the production of this steaming pile of trash, you should promptly ask for a refund.
The highlight for me was the dude enjoying his doughnuts. Those doughnuts didn't look that tasty, but he sold me on them. Well done sir.
Save yourself some time and money and avoid this cinematic astroid at all costs.

The Unseen is quite literally the worst movie I've ever seen. I was excited to watch since RJ Mitte is the star, but was immediately let down. RJ did the best he could with the horrible script he was given. Other than RJ and Candice Rose, the acting was atrocious. The writer also claims this movie was edited by the same person that edited Donnie Darko, but his name is no where to be found in the credits. Instead of wasting your time watching this film, I suggest watching Fish Jelly Film Reviews video on YouTube! It's only 26 minutes long and explains the whole film! It's extremely accurate unlike some of the reviews on here.
As an avid moviegoer, I had high hopes for "The Unseen," from reading reviews on here. Unfortunately, my anticipation quickly turned into disappointment and confusion as I endured what can only be described as a mishandled and poorly executed cinematic endeavor.
From the opening scene, it became painfully evident that "The Unseen" lacked any coherent plot or direction. The story stumbled aimlessly from one disjointed sequence to another, leaving me wondering who wrote this? Any attempt at crafting a mysterious and thought-provoking narrative fell flat.
The characters in "The Unseen" were equally underwhelming. The actors performances were hindered by weak dialogue and underdeveloped personalities. It felt as if the actors were struggling to breathe life into poorly written and uninteresting roles, resulting in unconvincing and uninspiring performances that failed to evoke any emotional connection.
Perhaps the most glaring flaw of "The Unseen" was its blatant disregard for basic storytelling principles. Scene transitions were lacked coherence. It felt as if the film was edited by someone with no understanding of pacing or continuity, resulting in a haphazard mess that was difficult to follow and immensely frustrating to watch.
Furthermore, the cinematography and visual effects in "The Unseen" were subpar at best. The film relied heavily on clichéd jump scares and predictable horror tropes, failing to offer anything fresh or innovative. The few attempts at creating suspense were hampered by laughable special effects and lackluster camera work, further detracting from any potential enjoyment the movie could have offered.
Ultimately, "The Unseen" falls short on every level. The film's lack of a coherent plot, underdeveloped characters, and poor execution make it a frustrating and forgettable experience.
Save your time and money. Skip "The Unseen" altogether.
