The Unwilling

I liked this movie. I thought the acing from the lead characters: David, Michelle and Cheryl, was very good and convincing. I also liked that this movie combined a few different horror ideas, like the haunted box, people trapped together, and characters with disabilities that constrain their ability to act. It is a low budget film but the filmmakers made something suspenseful and interesting.

Oh, and Bree Williamson is very pretty in this movie. I recommend this one.

I've been a Lance Henriksen fan ever since I saw him in Pumpkinhead. Apart from being a very versatile actor, I really love his voice. Pity he was only in the film a few minutes. I loved the very different characters - each with their own issues. The photography was very amateurish at times. Some interesting visuals (note I said interesting not good). Interestingly enough, the film won an award for Best Visual Effects... The film got increasingly worse as it progressed, but hey, if you want to see something you haven't seen before, then this is probably it. The effects are very, very low budget and practical. Its definitely not a good film, but somehow I still found it watchable. The ending was pretty laughable, actually, but you have to see it. You will be entertained either way - whether you like it or hate it.

Starts off well for the genre. There's even some darkly hilarious lines but unfortunately they ran out of gas trying to come up with another 20 decent minutes and it rapidly deteriorates. A pity! 5 stars for some good laughs and Hey it's that Startship Troopers girl and she hasn't aged a day in 20 years damn son.

If you're a fan of horror that is so bad that it's good, you might just have a blast with this one. The first hour is original and unusual; I can't remember a story-line quite like it. The ending fails to impress, but horror fans are used to that. Overall, it's a hoot!

A mysterious chest without history or concrete relation to its owner and that looks like it was melted in a fire houses a demon who, for no given reason, arranges for six people-a tolerable man with inconsistent OCD, two unlikable men, and three bodaciously derrièred women-to gather on pretext of hearing the recently deceased family patriarch's will read, and genie-like grants a single wish to one unwitting victim at a time whose body it then possesses in order, for no reason, to try to kill its next victim.

Dialogue is ridiculous, people open doors for no reason and enter rooms with no purpose. I really hated the husband and the dope fiend, and it is incredible that the husband's women want that creep, incredible that the cousin weeps for her brother.

The shadows, the road, the mirror, the darkness, the trap, and the hurricane are nice ideas.

Dina Meyer, Bree Williamson, and Austin Highsmith vie with one another to see whose plump booty is most tantalizingly in-your-face. I love them all. They make the film worth watching.

Ending classical music over credits is beguiling.

Watch with two grilled-cheese sandwiches and Perrier.
