Rage: Midsummer's Eve

-Rage: Midsummer's Eve (2015) movie review: -I am going to make this quick. Rage: Midsummer's Eve is a generic horror film about a group of young adults who go to a creepy house and there's death and bad things and stuff.

-The story has been done to death, -The film took forever to start and didn't pick up that much until the last third.

-None of the acting is anything better than any other film like this.

-The characters were all horror stereotypes minus the black guy.

-I did not pay attention to the music because none of it stood out to me.

-Nothing else in this film is original or better than cliché in any way. Therefore, Rage: Midsummer's Eve is not worth seeing. Ever.

The idea of making horror movie in broad daylight is great! And when you add that all this is happening in Finland (where I'd love to visit) the movie really makes difference. I've heard a lot nice things about Lapland and the white nights during summer time.

The places in the film are really authentic and scary. The production design is just amazing. And it was nice to see new and talented actors. I liked that the main character is female. Holly Georgia does great as Hannah.

I recommend this film for all horror fans. And also those who are interested in Finland!

For me always comes as a surprise that a female director is a director of a horror movie. Somehow I am bound to stereotypically relate them to more romantic accomplishments (not that a horror movie can't be romantic :-)). Tii Ricks did a great hob here and I enjoyed watching her work. I am neither really acquainted with actors in this movie but they are solid in their roles. Story is somewhat typical, some guys went too far, where no one can help them, and someone/something is chasing them. But script makes sense and I didn't find any "holes" in it.

There are decent scares that put me on the edge of my seat a couple of times and special effects/makeup is also good. I am not sure whether to call this movie a low-budget, because $1.3 million is not low at all, and when watching it you can't really feel they cut expenses anywhere. All in all, high recommendation!

I am a huge fan of Scandianvian films and for me this was no exception. I was waiting for it to be more gore and bloody but then I got the point that it allows one to use their imagination and own interpretation of what is actually happening to the five wanderers in the woods. I aim to give good an and not so good feedback on all films I see. This film is no exception. I really enjoyed the way the film was shot and thought that the actors were pretty good, even though a few of the scandi actors could have tried to pronounce in some scenes some words a bit more clear but that is no biggie. I think the director took a good and gutsy move by shooting a horror that focuses on events happening in daylight, and it worked fine for me. Yeah there was a bit too much running, but it felt like it keep the claustrophobic feel going. I really felt like this flick had a good feel to it. Yes there were a lot of clichés but realized that it was kind of the point after reading an interview on the film. I have no problem recommending this and in the end I think it was good to see something that was different to the cliché torments in the dark. Thumbs up from me and look forward to what this director brings next. Rock on Scandiland!!!

I am a big fan of horror, action and scary movie. I watched Rage: Midsummer's Eve (2015) and wasn't disappointed! I highly recommend it. Right from the very start, my eyes were frozen to the screen. I couldn't take my eyes off of it.

I enjoyed the plot of this film. The script contains many clever "so that's what that was about!" moments, and the twists are much more complicated and scary than you would expect in a horror sequel.

The acting was on point. Johnny Sachon and Michael Vardian were extremely impressive in their respective performance. I was blown away at how beautifully done it was: the camera work, the acting, the story, it all took me by surprise. Technically, it is very crafty. You won't suspect it coming.

In general, "Rage: Midsummer's Eve" possesses a professionalism not often seen in the genre; most horror films go for cheap across the board from the budget to the talent to the thrills. The film is distinct in terms of story. Not an ounce of it can be perceived as immature or hollow. What a rare treat!
