Don't Let Them In

Was pleasantly surprised by this low budget horror. Not quite what I was expecting but in the end it was worth my time. Compelling mystery, great twists, and turns.

If you get glib British humour and have a fondness for Hammer House of Horror, then this film is for you.

The title and marketing don't seem to match the film, what you get is so much better than another Purge/ home invasion movie.

There are laughs, splatter and plot twists. The Karl character gets all the funniest lines delivered perfectly by Aidan O'Neill. I would like to see more of the adventures of Karl.

I'm on my second viewing of this and will definitely watch it again, this may very well become a cult classic.

REVIEW - DON'T LET THEM IN

British films are unfortunately not funded to the extent of those made in the USA by the big studios, so British cinema tends to concentrate on story rather than special effects, unfortunately this is the case with this film.

Again we've seen this type of film before, people held up in a building defending themselves from whatever is trying to get inside but at least this had a twist which I didn't even see coming!

Quite enjoyable especially the twist which I have mentioned but by far the best throughout the film is Colin.

Not the worst and not the best so....

Rating 5 out of 10

Great little indy flick. A few laughs, lots of twists and turns, decent amount of blood lol definitely worth a watch for horror lovers.

The film started off very well, two fellas travel far off in the countryside n visit an abandoned n dilapidated hotel/house. They meet the man who they r supposed to meet but the man holds them at gun point n warns them not to venture outta the house as "they" will kill em all. Sounds good. It is clear that the director is inspired by Ils aka Them, Strangers, Purge, Stephen Dorff's Jackals, etc. His intentions were good but mayb due to the budget or his inexperience as a first time director, the film was not able to hold interest due to the lack of suspense n tension. The twist is kinda meh. The lead novice actor Aidan O'Neill gave a decent performance.
