Nocturne

This one wasn't too bad. Some High School / College kids meet for a 'party' which turns out to be not so much of a party, more like a gathering. They decide to entertain themselves with a deck of cards to use it like a tarot deck. Then the fun really starts!!! You get some demonic love, some interdimensional / planar travel, and a prime example of what kind of parties to avoid in the future!!!

I've learned the hard way as to just how defeating it is to get your hopes up about modern day horror films(and that goes for b-movies, as well as for the big budget Hollywood films).. The let down is bad, and its exactly why I've learned to curb my enthusiasm in regards to upcoming horror films.

This low budget indie was quite enjoyable and I found much entertainment in watching it last night. I, unlike so many others, am actually a fan of the supernatural horror sub-genre that deals with a lot of the paranormal themes including ouija boards, seances, and even hauntings/possessions.. This indie had all of that and more.

Was it a thrill ride? No, but it was entertaining and yes, I will actually watch it again at some point in the future (IMO, always a tell-tale sign of a good horror film is if it holds up in repeated viewings).

In my opinion, the story wasn't very solid and I got the impression that the blonde girl may have been in hell while dealing with legion (maybe).

The characters back stories were nonexistent and came about in random "tidbits," providing no explanation to a lot of why the characters were they way they were. This made it nearly impossible to care for any of them at all.

I get the sense that the film had major budget restraints and they grabbed some decent looking women to run around with their boobs out in order to keep the "male" attention span. Lots of shirtless women; very little story. I do not like that about movies. Sure, who doesn't like seeing naked women? However, I want to watch a FILM, not a porn!

I have it a moderate rating for the decent acting for what they had to work with.

5/10.

I found Nocturne because it had some of the actors from Mythica in it. Based on the tag line, and my good experiences watching the Mythica films, I had high hopes that Nocture would be quite good. I was expecting a story involving a relationship with a demon that inevitably turned bad. Unfortunately, that wasn't really what the film was about. Having watched the film a couple of times now, I still don't really know what the motives of the demon were. The whole thing just doesn't make a lot of sense to me, and I certainly didn't get to see the film I was hoping for.

This movie is a great horror movie that had the players doing things that made sense in a bad situation. This was more realistic than most horror flicks that I've seen.
