ClearMind

Just peeped this indie gem that's off the charts! It's a comedic thriller with horror and drama vibes, and let me tell you, it's a real standout. The writing and directing are next-level, especially considering they probably pulled it off on a shoestring budget. The characters feel straight outta real life, brought to life by a great cast, with some familiar faces in the mix. I was fully locked in by the characters and the plot - had me on the edge 'til the end. Major props to this film - I REALLY liked it! They save the action and the twist for Act 3, breakin' the mold from the usual horror comedy routine. If you're down for a movie that makes you think, this one's a go to watch.

I totally enjoyed this movie as it was different then most of the horror comedy coming out lately in the last few years. Writing is fun and the acting is great from some familiar faces you've seen across streamers over the years. The lead played by Rebecca Crescoff was amazing in that HBO show Hung, if anyone remembers that. Here she is a totally different character with a dark side of sadness. Or whats his face Kadeem from A Different World and the short lived Moonhaven is also funny, married to a pill of a women. All these character interactions created by the writer present like a play, letting the characters relationships development like a dramady, saving the action and the light-twist for Act 3 - instead of the more popular horror comedys that play out in a typical fashion.

Worth the watch!

This movie subverted my expectations because it didn't have a lot of the faults I associate with modern low-budget cinema. It was competently filmed and edited. The actors were well directed. They spoke to each other naturally and at times it felt like watching real people. So what's the problem then? Well, I don't want to give spoilers but let's just say that for a viewer to be invested in a film the viewer has to feel like they are watching something that approximates reality. OR if one is watching something that is supposed to be fantasy, one at least has to have a grasp of the rules that apply to that fantastical universe. Otherwise it would be a free for all, right? Anything can happen. Nothing means anything. Does anyone every really want to sit and hear a detailed account of someone else's dream? Probably not... but why? I would argue because there aren't any stakes involved. If your best friend show up at your door and says "A guy just tried to kill me." your reaction is going to be very different than if he/she says "Last night I dreamed that a guy tried to kill me." It is for that reason that I argue that this movie was dead in the water (heh heh) from concept. There is smart writing, funny writing and scary writing in this movie but the fabric that holds it all together is a massive dud. You can try to flesh out realistic characters with unique backstories all day long but if the promised entertaining events that happen to them don't make sense... can't make sense... DON'T HAVE ANY MEANINGFUL STAKES WHATSOEVER... well, you get it. It's an unfortunate dud.

Clear mind is a boring, flat and nothingburger filled with trivial conversations and absence of humor or action from start to finish. The story, badly butchered by Seana Kofed presents painfully boring characters and a n even more boring story that never grabs your interest. The acting is boring across the board as well as the cinematography, editing and music... no production value here. Despite of the setting in an idyllic lake front property, it is still boring. Clearmind is the pinnacle of boring and kept me on my bored with its slow pace and boring characters... I regret this encounter with Seana Kofed and team's creation. Dont watch !

"Clear Mind" is an exhilarating and enjoyable cinematic experience, seamlessly blending suspense and humor from start to finish. The story introduces a cast of delightful characters in a story that strikes the perfect balance between engagement and relatability, never taking itself too seriously. The stellar performances, coupled with impressive cinematography, seamless editing, and a captivating musical score, contribute to the film's overall excellence. "Clear Mind" kept me on the edge of my seat with its fast-paced plot and entertaining characters. I give it two thumbs up and recommend you give it a watch.
