Artik

ARTIK could've been much better if the plot was given some serious thoughts....even though it would still then fall on the average line...but it felt like too rushed

The acting I can't say it's unwatchable it's kinda okay could've been better

They could've honestly really really toned down on those bgms think they were trying to highlight and make the scenes scary with it but it ends up being annoying.

Watchable but not recommended.

The good: it's grain and well-shot. Congrats for hiring a real DP and film crew with actual knowledge of camera placement, movement and lighting. Most of the cast is good. The music is rocking, and adds to the overall good atmosphere. The makeup is quite professional. The horror is adequately tense.

The bad: the guy playing the baddie is bad at acting. And his dialogue is so idiotic. It would have been much better if he was mute. And the overall film is just kinda there.

Just viewed this at the New Jersey Horror Con. My first film fest and I really enjoyed this film. Lots of creepiness, blood, horror and good camera work. Acting by all was great, Jerry Angelo as Artik, was a great character, good acting. Story was weird and provided a good horror atmosphere.

This kicked ass on the big screen and is a truly impressive feature film debut from Tom Botchii. Artik breaks traditional rules which is refreshing in the genre and even has a few WTF moments pushing beyond where other horror films are willing to go. Lots of new themes introduced that come at a breakneck pace and gives you more than your typical "one note" Horror film, this thing has some depth to it. Great spastic action scenes supported by awesome performances and gory practical effects make this fly in my book. All of the technical execution and Direction including, camera, casting, effects, etc., are all enhanced by a kickass Film Score. Everything is extremely polished, not just for a first time feature Director, because in the end I don't care how much money or experience you have, as a fan I just want a good film. With Artik, I got a Great one. Overall, it's a different, awesome, new take on horror! THANK YOU!

Was recommended this film and really enjoyed how well and professionally it was done. The plot kept me engaged and anxious to find out what the world / story would reveal and where the trip would lead. Really solid work. I recommend to check it out. The director did a great job with tension and the gore and violence are shot really well.
