I think it could have been even better than the final result, but nonetheless, it is a fairly decent effort with some strong points.

From the poster and the first few minutes, I couldn't care much for this one, yet, little by little, you get to see good acting, interesting plot development and an overall nice execution. The people involved in the making of The Voices really did their best with the script and turned it into a good adaption, I would say especially for a made for TV movie. For a stand alone horror, it will probably turn unnoticed, and bare in mind, it is one for the psychological fans more than anything, so whoever is up for a slow burner, you might get your kicks with this one.

All in all, The Voices is a movie that deserves some praise for sticking to its idea, if I'd have one complaint it would be about the ending, that seemed like deja vu on screen, but I do get what they were trying to do there.

Cheers!

Its just another horro flick , made for the tv-set in the living room, made for the easy tripped scared ones among the human race, hiding under the warm fleece blanket sitting by the fire on the couch biting nails along with the films caracters.

the story and plot is simple, two sisters in a cabin , both with a troubled past as siblings and individuals, then comes the knocker by and elevates all the misery in their lives. how it turns out...? well be my guest

its a one location ,handfull of actors, a score for a dime , and a multiplously cliched plot, out somewhere in the u.s. wild west, where the entities of the past keeps knocking on wood.

its not a film for the squemished seasoned horror lover, just another timefiller at best.the grumpy old man threw this on back in the basket, its a no recommend

This movie is so bad......two of the worst actresses to grace the screen....not even scary....glad I didnt pay to see it! The only screams during this train wreck are you telling them to get on with it.......Dont waste your time with this waste of time....Utterly forgettable!

Headache inducing, plot confusing, character development confusing of a movie. I would rather get teeth pulled than watch this ever again.

How can I even explain this movie other than the WORST horror movie I have ever seen. The plot was so confusing and so boring it makes no sense at all. It makes you wonder if the main character is crazy or her sister is crazy. Or it's just ghosts haunting them. Throughout the movie I was actually wishing it would be ghosts because it would make more sense than this pointless and meaningless garbage. I got half way thought the movie and I kept waiting for something to happen. And nothing happened at all. I was extremely disappointed because this movie could have been so much better. Please do me a favor and don't watch this movie. Such a stupid waste of time and complete poor excuse for a horror movie I have ever seen!! If I could give a zero I would!

As advice do not wast ypur tine watching this kind of stubid movie not horror no story .nothing at all

Sweeping aerial camera views? Check. Eerie music? Check. Lulling the viewer into a false sense of security that this will be a good hour and a half spent? Check. Then, sadly, follows a predictable " twist" to the storyline and an abrupt and deeply unsatisfactory ending. I hate falling back on old chestnuts myself, but I'm feeling compelled to release the much loved catchphrase on this website- the good reviews are obviously coming from friends and family members of the filmmakers. I'm a huge fan of indie films and I don't think that a big Hollywood budget is necessarily required to make an unsettling and thought provoking film. There's no doubt that the cinematography is beautiful and that the script writer had great expectations. Unfortunately, the tone is lost. Ambiguous endings are all the rage these days and in some cases, appropriate. Not here. It's as though everyone got sick of this trash and decided to wrap it up as quickly as possible. Can't blame em.

I opened the Imbd to see the rating of this movie after I watched it. I was not expecting to see rating below 6. I actually really enjoyed this movie and was expecting high rating. It felt creepy and scary, difficult to predict what will happened next. I think the low reviews are not fair. This is great psychological thriller and definitely recommend to watch it. The acting was great too.

Greetings And Salutations, and welcome to my review of The Voices; here's the breakdown of my ratings:

Story: 1.50 Direction: 1.25 Pace: 1.00 Acting: 1.25 Enjoyment: 1.25

TOTAL: 6.25 out of 10.00

Firstly, The Voices is not a Horror movie it's a Dark Psychological Thriller. And it is more than worthy of your attention. Secondly, this will be more of a glowing review than a gloomy one, so let me state that I don't know anybody who worked on the project - and I'm not protesting too much.

I must doff my cap to the writer for coming up with an ingenious idea and apparently researching the subject of mental health, especially schizophrenia. Though, he doesn't always get it right. But a writer's prerogative and imagination are needed to make some situations and characters more engaging and entertaining. So I give a little leeway. There's a lot right with the script. Such as Catherine's isolation. When I suffer similarly, I call it Going Into Hermit Mode; I just need to be away from people. So straight away, I was relating to Catherine and wondering how to get a home in the middle of nowhere - damn, I'd even think about having a retractable bridge. Then there's the paranoia. Your brain keeps telling you that people are watching you, and it can get pretty inventive. In Catherine's case, because people aren't around, she has delusions of the electricity keeping tabs on her - It's always listening. But the best use of the paranoia is Grace's fall down the rabbit hole. She's already worried because her mother was a suicide schizophrenic, and when she arrives at her sister's, she sees her walking along the same yellow brick road. Worst still is that she's on a Psych course because of her piqued interest in the subject, thanks to Mom. But when strange things begin to happen in the home, she doubts her sanity, and her slide into madness begins. Her descent is written expertly and is credible. The one thing that irked me was the speaking in voices - It's reminiscent of multiple personality disorder, but on this occasion, it felt as though it was merely there to drive the story onward. I had a comparable feeling about the Vagabond character. Even though she does turn up in a dream sequence, she still feels like the writer scribbled her in to get Lin Shaye into the picture. Apart from a couple of irritating segments, the story is sound.

But the story only gets better in the hands of the directors. For the most part, they utilise a slow pace to show everything as it is. For example, on Grace's arrival, Catherine's welcome isn't warm and loving and is full of pregnant pauses - you can feel the awkwardness of the situation painfully well. And this social distancing, even between family members, is a trait of most mental illnesses. The directors capture it superbly. But what I liked most was the slanted camera angles. When either woman suffered a slip into their maladies, the camera would rotate left or right slightly, and the world around them would blur and shimmer. It would then straighten up when they returned from their trip to Wonderland OZ. A simple idea works excellently to pull you into their world a tad. But, very few films get away with no dislikes from me - In Voices, it's the eroded washed-out colour. It would have been better to do the storytelling in the vividness of reality. It would have added to the feeling that "there for the grace of God, go I". Another is the constant oppressive atmosphere. The directors like to try and keep the tension on from the opening credits. When Grace arrives, she goes walkabout to check out the house. All the while, there's an eerie soundtrack accompanying her. When, she opens a closet door or a bathroom cabinet, you're expecting the worst. But, nothing happens until you get to the end of the segment, and we have a flashback to Mom's suicide. It's not a scary moment, so why treat it as such? It would have been more realistic and relatable to have some happy moments in there - counterpoints to the bleakness would only emphasise how genuinely grim things are.

The two female leads are superb in their portrayals. I particularly loved that Catherine couldn't look Grace in the eyes, and Victoria Matlock adds a touch of the nerves as her eyes dart everywhere. And when she gets angry and struggles to control herself, Matlock demonstrates this magnificently. In most scenes, Catherine (Matlock) oozes an aura of barely chained violence. She is subtly scary as f...Hell.

When I started watching the film, I wasn't too impressed. Once I got into the story, though, and the actresses began to shine, I was well on the way to being captivated. And when the finale came, I was chilled to the bone and fully immersed in their Wonderland Oz. Therefore, I would happily recommend The Voices to those who love a good Dark Psychological Thriller. It is one of the better written and acted ones out there and well worth your time and attention.

One of the worst films I've ever watched in my life the actors are just awful no jump scares what so ever glad I don't pay any money to watch this film other wise I would of asked for my money back, waste of my time do not recommend to anyone

Save your time and read the synopsis. The actresses who occupy most of the screen time are not capable of pulling off the emotion or resonance needed to make this film engaging.

Two competent lead performances sadly cannot lift this from being a very dull watch. The one location is a cabin in the middle of nowhere, where two sisters meet up and try to outdo each other in the madness stakes. This involves endless conversations, often heated and, because they are both female, this involves a lot of arguing about who would make the best mother.

This distinct lack of verve and imagination leaves the two actresses very little to work with, other than drifting round in a kind of loop, achieving and discovering little about what scant plot there is.

The ending, if you get to it, is more interesting than the rest of the film, although even that is stretched out too long. My score is 3 out of 10.

Not a traditional horror movie, more psychological thriller. Quite effective, good acting, strong script, good production values. No reason for the low rating.

The Voices (2020): A curious film which explores the intersection of mental health problems with horror. Grace has had a traumatic break up with her fiance, on the way to visit her sister Catherine she encounters a mysterious old woman who gives her a crucifix. Catherine who suffers from paranoid-schizophrenia has lived in thee isolated family home since the death of her daughter Abby. Their mother also suffered from schizophrenia and committed suicide when they were young. Catherine still talks to Abby and Grace now starts to see visions and hear voices, Abby appears to her. An Ouija Board and a demon called Penny is also involved. Some shocks and scenes of horror and violence. Grace's dreams are particularly disturbing, not just for her but for viewers. Most of the horror in this film is psychological as you try to differentiate between reality and the imagined. An intriguing plot twist sets the film off in another direction. Directed by Wesley Alley and Bradley Fowler, written by Bradley Fowler. 7/10.

The film is a lot better than the trailer. (No Spoilers)

At first, the film may seem to recycle some typical horror film tropes, and, like other films of it's genre, "get off to a slow start", but wait for it because the director Wes Alley only takes the slow-burn approach so far and right before you get bored, you are pleasantly surprised with character developments, plot twists, and scenes that leaving you questioning "what is reality?". Similar to George A. Romero's independent original "Night of the Living Dead (1968)" there are several scenes of rough lighting or editing that reveal the "independent low budget" nature of the film, but these are minimal and do not ruin the experience, in fact, the performances of the fresh-faced actors were top-notch and praiseworthy... if not better than 90% of their over-paid counterparts littering the horror genre.

I am a huge fan of plot twists and The Voices definitely delivers (no spoilers). The young Juliana Sada's performance was spectacular. I hope to see more in the future from Wes Alley and the screenwriter Bradley Fowler.

This is a movie with an apparent psychological background. Many mentioned terms and parts if the script made alot of sense to me because i am a psych fanatic. If psychology does not interest you, or if you want a straight forward horror film this is not it. Its a psych thriller. No true climax but more of interesting unfolding events and i found it very amusing to watch, although it was a bit slow. All in all, i would recommend people to watch this movie.

Slow burn psychological thriller/drama. Great acting, keep you guessing to the end.

The movie is not as bad as some people make it out to be the acting is quite good as the the plot is the trailer doesn't do the movie justice

Pretty good movie for an evening watch. Really covers the mental illness ground. The ending was like, "What?!" Not in a bad way though. Wife and I enjoyed it. Worse movies out there. I can't say anything bad about it. The older sister plays her part well.....creepy and kooky, Haha.

It's because I'm screaming at this movie! Great cinematography, awesome original content and creepy as hell!
