Deep Hatred

Probably not. Well there's painful dialogue in abundance and sometimes a figure lurking in the background. It's a standard cheesy run of the mill 80s horror except you gotta wait right till the end for anything to happen. May have lost 20 IQ points watching this. Proceed with caution.

Watched the first 30 minutes, skimmed the rest and felt robbed of my earthly time.

Not scary, so so acting. Not completely wooden but close.

Special effects are low budget to none at all, boring from first 5 minutes.

Biggest issue is that it is boring. Never cared for any of the characters.

Feels like a play more than a movie.

You really need to stay away from this one. I guess if you can tolerate every actor and actress you will see on the screen being horrible at acting. It was hard to pay attention to the story with such annoying actors to look at.

So on the whole the concept and plot of the movie isn't particularly bad per se. Some elements of it needed to be fleshed out more though. Really the most egregious part of the story is the twist at the end that comes out of nowhere and makes little to no sense.

The acting in this movie is terrible quite frankly. A couple actors being garbage could be overlooked, but when the vast majority of the actors are awful it really hurts the film overall and makes it seem cheaper and low-end than it may actually be. The best actor in the whole thing is the guy who gets thrown into the lake at the very beginning of the film, and that lasts perhaps a total of 30 seconds; from then on out it's struggle city in the acting department.

All in all I wouldn't recommend this movie if you're looking for a decent horror movie to watch. If you'd just like to take the piss out of a bad-to-mediocre movie though this may just scratch that itch, as there are some genuinely some unintentionally funny moments aside from the weak acting.

Let's start with something positive: the film looks good and the cinematography is more than competent. That said...

The actors are not to blame, especially given the terrible characters and dialog they were given, for "Deep Hatred", A more appropriate title would have been "Goofus & Gallant: The Horror Movie"

Gallant fixes the flat tire while Goofus flirts with his girlfriend.

Gallant & GF worry about the moldy smell of the house while Goofus & GF jump into a clean-as-whistle pool at an abandoned house.

Gallant hugs his girlfriend while Goofus has sex in the pool.

Gallant cleans the house while Goofus has sex with his GF.

Gallant investigations the spookiness of the house while Goofus surreptitiously and salaciously snaps pool pics of Gallant's GF (who is Goofus' childhood friend).

Gallant's GF is blonde and wears white while Goofus's GF is raven-haired and wears black (and talks FOREIGN-y!).

Gallant has brought a ring with which to propose to his not-longtime GF, while Goofus derides the ring and his intention, unaware that HIS long-time girlfriend has decided HE is overdue to propose.

Somewhere during all of this, the Elder Couple visits and gives them a Mysterious Warning not to go out at night (close up on hedonistic couple). "What do you mean?" -- "Bye, kids!"

There are spooky stickman not-scarecrows all about, giving the impression they are at The Blair Witch's summer place.

Wait, was that something in the bathroom mirror behind her?! Is there a person under those crumpled bedsheets? Does The Water contain Evil?

There's more, but you get the idea. If AIs start being used to write horror movies, films like "Deep Hatred" will be the cause, since it already seemed composed entirely of algorithmically compiled tropes.
