Demigod

Wrote this review 60 minutes into the movie. I couldn't make it through the whole thing.

This movie is not my preferred brand of horror, hence the low rating. It seems like Nordic Folk Horror based on the look and foreign language use in the film.

I found it boring and very slow. You finally get a glimpse of what's going on around 40 minutes into the film, and at this point I was pretty disappointed that it turned out to be a story that's been told a million times before and is in no way novel or scary.

The movie also has a few gory parts, which again is not my preferred kind of horror. It's just gross, not scary. There's also several scenes in the movie that would have been much more intense and creepy if it had been filmed at night instead of before dusk. Overall just felt kind of cheesy to me.

If you like movies about old folklore gods and movies that move super slowly, you may enjoy this film.

Almost shut this one off because I thought it was going to be foreign language but it is not. Then I had to do a double take because the lead male sounds way too much like Denzel Washington. And wow I love the hand-cannon weapon they show off at the start.

We have the woods, we have bloody carcasses, and plenty of vomiting at the start! Then the thing gets pretty boring. Some bad overacting. Cruddy script.

Then we get a bunch of running around, and the 'god' chasing around specific people to be one of its three main worshippers. Oh my. It's really pretty bad.

If you want to see a fun romp thru the woods with the god Cernunos, I recommend The Ritual.

This one however., 2/10.

My main problem with this mediocre film is their bad German. It's like they used Google Translate without bothering to consult a native speaker. Also, some acting was bad. Some was good though.

Just a horrible movie. Avoid ! Better off watching something else worthwhile. Dime store masks that look ridiculous. Terrible acting. Why bother making this movie ?

Whenever a flick gets glowing reviews, the majority of which are posted in a single month (say...October in this case) I immediately suspect that a group associated with the flick had a pity-party to pump up the rating to an artificially high level. I'm absolutely sure that this is the case here since this snooze-fest would never rate more than a "1" by any objective viewer. There is more action in your average daytime soap opera (as well as better acting). If you're looking for entertainment worth your time (and you have high enough self-esteem to think your time is worth ANYTHING) avoid this travesty. Please.
