The Hoarder

Started out okay but quickly degenerated into the characters making progressively dumber decisions, as per the usual formula. The "twist" in the film was beyond ridiculous and pretty much just felt like a cheat. Cap it with an incredibly stupid ending, and The Hoarder goes from a somewhat below-average horror film to a must-avoid-at-all-costs stinker. The early attempts in the film to establish atmosphere are about the only positive things I can say about it.

The whole storyline was intriguing but the ending fell short. I'm not sure if they wanted to make a sequel, but it sure left it open to do so!

Not a terrible movie, but certainly not great. I thought the idea was very promising for a horror movie. Storage units are creepy. I'm not sure what happened to Mischa Barton, but somewhere along the line she has completely forgotten how to act. She was just horrible in this. She was constantly over acting and obvious about it.

The movie itself was fairly decent, not a lot of special effects to ruin it, and a pretty decent twist to the story that I didn't see coming.

Not a bad movie to watch if you are a fan of horror, but don't expect too much.

You'll probably enjoy this more if you're open to cheeseball horror-comedy. It isn't a cheeseball horror-comedy - not quite - but it definitely plays better if you can roll into that mindset, and might have been a better movie if it were.

I sat through the first hour thinking this was a good premise marred by bad decisions. The dialogue is clunky, there are plot holes, Officer Cliché's unnecessary sideplot is a whole mess, characterization is all over the place, what are motivations anyway, etc.

But then that reveal hits, and I cackled with utter delight through the last 20 minutes. I would gladly watch the whole thing again with friends to watch them when that moment arrives, which makes it a good enough film for me despite the aforementioned flaws.

Laughable dialogue. Poor performances. The kind of idiotic decisions only found in lousy horror movies. This idea had potential, but it's totally lost in production. The one plus: the creature looks good and is appropriately scary.
