Fractured

I was advised to watch something called Fractured starring Sam Worthington, but I watched the wrong movie, and stumbled on this by mistake.

I do not like horror movies, so I would not usually have chose to watch this, but I enjoyed it a great deal.

It's very low budget, there are only 6 people in the cast and none of them are particularly well known (unless you watch your UK soaps) I only knew Louise Lytton from Eastenders.

It is creepy, the acting is good, has a good sense of atmosphere and moves at a decent pace, but what makes this movie for me was a twist in the middle of the movie, that A, I did not see coming and B, totally turned the movie on its head.

If you like your creepy horror movies and love a good twist, then check this out.

At least in my opinion, because if you take in consideration its budget, actors, location, all that was necessary to build it, I think Fracture came out just great!

Simple yet effective, a situation where less is more, without over stretching, without relying on gore or torture porn, a simple invasion horror movie that delivers on its premise. Good use of mystery, managed to keep me intrigued from start to finish and I have to say, I wish more such productions would take in consideration to keep it as natural as they can without going to great lengths to show either bad CGI or a terrible conclusion.

Fracture is a lovely little indie movie! Recommended!

Cheers!

I want to be a minimal with this as I can. The less you know? The better this film will be! Just trust me when I tell you...although the twist has been done here and there, it's VERY rare that you see it, and it's even more rare that it WORKS!

Just please, if you love horror...WATCH! You will appreciate it. I am not a serial killer/slasher/SCREAM type of horror fan, my thing is monsters...and I thought this was brilliant!!

When you see the twist, you're going to laugh and say "haha wow!" In a GOOD WAY!! And what's great? The twist is revealed not even half way into the film, and even once you get that "I got it!" Moment? The rest of the film is still GREAT!

This film can only be described as a puzzle, and the work it must've taken to craft this puzzle...RESPECT!!!

Just watch it, don't shut it off...and thank me later!

We enjoyed this thriller or mystery. Acting was good although the characters seemed a bit over the top, we still liked it. Definitely makes you think twice about helping out strangers. Well done!

Fractured follows Rebecca and Michael on their journey to a cottage in the countryside. It all starts out as a romantic weekend trip, but then you know how these kind of movies go...

I was very pleasantly surprised by "Fractured"... and I gotta say that I don't understand why it has such low average ratings. It's quite "pure" in its simple setup and its focus on just two people. The camerawork is great, and so is the acting. Overall, the movie is quite suspenseful, with some true nail-biters.

If you are a gorehound, you may not like this movie as there's relatively little on-screen violence. It's more about the wittiness and the psychology. I'd recommend this to anybody who liked such home invasion movies as "Hush" or "You're next".
