Night at the Eagle Inn

Fraternal twins Sarah Moss and Spencer Moss are following their missing father's footsteps. Their search leads them to the Eagle Inn in Vermont. Suspicion grows in the eerily quiet isolated hotel.

I like both Amelia Dudley and Taylor Turner. They actually look like brother and sister. The best is Dean. They all have a bit of creepiness. This is a creepy micro indie. There is something unsettling about the quietness of the hotel. Even the old TVs seem creepy. It's only 70 minutes. It probably needs another twenty minutes. The plot is a little thin. It needs another character, maybe a maid. It needs one more thing. I would make the father's disappearance more recent. It would allow for the possibility of finding him, and that would raise the tension. This is a good start.

One true wisdome about close circuit hotel horror movies and that is you are going to hell anyway, either dead or alive outcome, you are deemed to go to hell, and thats what this story is about...

small cast, some nervous winks and oneeyed blinks in the main male actors face, that seemed so tensed at the set.female main a few notches better but no more than average, and thats for the hole cast.

Storyplot takes small pieces and bits from really good horror movies , but fails on the act and slow plot. Its 50 minutes of nada, and the rest is just a hint of a scary movie.if you picture up dantes inferno in 7 levels where 7 is the most hellish level , shells that you only can enter and never leap out of, this comes barely to the second level of frights and purgatorial wrath.

Waking up from a dream in a dream might be fun if done properly but this was not what the grumpy old man came for. A low budgie shot on a wholesale location and sets due to shutdown by covid, didnt make much difference. Better luck next time, and do mention the one eye blink flutter for your next cast.

The pacing wasn't great at the start, and the story is one a seasoned horror fan would feel like it's familiar, but it was a decent low budget indie horror film. The acting is pretty good actually, and there are some nice tense and creepy moments. Even though it was a low budget film I think they did well with the budget, because it doesn't look cheap or anything like that.

It's much better once it warms up, and the dark and creepy moments kick in.

The ending could have been better, even if it wasn't at all surprising. It's the kind of ending I don't like as much as the "good ending". It could have been a lot more interesting.

Decent little hotel horror movie, with some snarky dialog. I don't think the horror elements are especially original, kind of a mashup up of things from The Shining, Ringu, and Argento films. But it's well enough put together, particularly considering the budget, and it's only 70 minutes. (Seen at 2021 Popcorn Frights virtual debut.)

Come to think of it , despite flaws in acting and direction, its not that bad. Just have to lower some expectations.

The twin brother though was over doing his part .

If this movie had a bigger budget , audience might have actually enjoyed it.
