Beneath Us

Leave aside the overuse of "Thrilling Sound effects" it's a good Indie movie. The cinematography is great, the tension is present all over the movie - you really wanna kill that woman- and the message is good. It's good to see something new is the thriller scene, which became sadly empty the last couple of years in my opinion. It won't mark me, but it's just a bit of fresh air.

Lynn "Goddess" Collins is the main reason for watching!

This films takes a real life scenario, undocumented immigrants working for below minimum wage to scrape a living, and turns it into a disturbed thriller. I won't go into details about the content, but I will say that the female lead is a total nut job! The scary thing about this film is the fact that it could happen, maybe even has to some degree. Reason for the 5 stars? Slow start, lack of depth in the "immigrant" characters and a poor finale. The film deserved more... a good story, but needed more.

Not a bad film, acting very good plot line good, main actress a bit of a dominatrix type and quite scary. Lots of better horror films out there but give it a go.........

This movie focuses on the serious social and political problems arising from illegal immigration in the USA. There is no escaping this analysis. From there, each draws their conclusions according to their point of view. I believe it will affect even mood when giving a rate. White conservative Americans will love the way Latinos are treated, Latinos and liberal whites will revolt, and so on. Everyone knows that the problem exists and, despite the exaggeration, the movie portrays, in an alternative way, the reality.

Sadly , some americans would love to enslave illegal immigrants, especially latina, since most Americans don't wann do the work that Latinos accept to do cheaply out of necessity. The immigration problem will continue to grow no solution.

As for the movie, the production is poor, the interpretations almost amateur. But that is what matters least, because the matter is real and very serious.

The ending is redemptive for Latinos and should bother conservative whites.
