The Confines

This movie had all the parts it needed to be a great horror movie. A creepy situation, creepy location, good acting (Jason Patric), and part of a story.

They didn't do a good job though. It's like they were baking a cake, got all the ingredients out, and then just left it all on the counter in separate piles, tadah!!!

The story makes no sense at all. I think Louisa Krause is probably a decent actress, but was over acting all the time. All though I'm pretty sure that was due to the writing.

This would be a good movie to remake with all the same actors and the same place, but with someone that knows how to tell a story that makes sense.

The main problem is that it meanders a little too much in the third act.

Acting was extremely good and the story intrigued me. I like a slow burn horror/mystery but this had some pacing issues

The lead actress did make me feel for her, her pain was palpable and her journey was heartfelt. Jason Patric remains underrated as ever, turning in a wonderfully dry and real performance.

I'm still not 100% on what was happening and I like that, I feel that the lack of understanding is my fault and not the movies and I'm sure if I rewatched it I would understand better

It's a very atmospheric movie so keep that in mind when you watch it and also remember some horror is a marathon not a sprint

I love supernatural movies, suspense and thrillers movies. I think people forget that there are many more sections or categories to scary movies They're not all combined into one. I don't like the slasher movies for example.

My point is this movie is more of a suspense movie than anything else. So if you like suspense movies then this is the movie for you. When I looked through the reviews everybody's comments are about jumpscares and things of that nature but they're looking at it from a different perspective than what the movie is intended to be viewed as witch is as a suspense movie.

I been on a movie set like this in which a director was able to get access to a place were he can film his entire movie all at once in a few days or weeks. Sometimes the problem with that is that they try to stretch out something that cannot be stretched.

The first act is slow, and you can tell its slow because nothing happens that really drives the movie to go anywhere or get me interested at all (except for me thinking to myself "is that Jason Patrick?"). They could have used a better lead actress as well.

As the movie progressed, it keep looking like it was going to be promising, but they kept holding on to moment in the film for far too ling and you loose interest.

Overall this horror film was trying to be cleaver and imaginative, but mostly just lost me in boredom. Overall it was a good story that was just not implemented well enough.

Well , I like it , the first half of this movie was so good. the atmosphere and the acting was too , but i didn't like the end ( my opinion) , and before I watch this , by chance I watched NIGHTWORLD movie 2 weeks ago , then I asked myself who stole the script from the other ? , because both of them have the same story . so my advice is : watch this movie , after that go see the NIGHTWORLD and make a comparison by yourself because both of them were good.
