Nefarious

It is very bad story and make me sick 👎...... Zzzz

Movie staff upvoting again.

Shut it off for the bad acting, garbage script, and terrible camera work.

An utterly stupid movie with nothing to offer, no elements of anything interesting, intriguing, shocking, shaking, horror for rats and an ending that defies the worst low budget productions out there.

Even as a low bloody budget production, a movie should stick to basics and basics it does stick with something called filming with the help of a camera and lots of electricity and money wasted.

Starts good, ends like a pile of... Even the instruments, visual effects and fumes were wasted.

First off, this is obviously a low-budget movie, and although that presents some flaws due to budget constraints, overall the film is quite solid. The story is intriguing enough to draw you in from the outset, add some developed characters, the use of flash forward, and an anxiety-inducing score, you get a tight, tense horror with great practical effects. And I only watched for the biscuits.

I'll start with: I am not a horror fan. I usually avoid it as I am a bit of a scaredy-cat and have had some experiences in the real world that keep me farrr away from horror films. That being said, I decided to go against my normal instincts and give 'Nefarious' a whirl at a film festival as I'd seen a promo for it and it caught my attention. I'm very glad I did: it's gritty, original, suspenseful, and full of surprises. Nadia Lamin as Lou and Toby Wynn-Davies as Marcus particularly gripping on screen, though the team of actors as a whole are solid & characters have depths; I felt so sorry for Clive, played by Gregory A. Smith. There is an especially gory scene that had a good few of us audience members turning away it was so effectively done, one shot involving a blade by an ear that really had my stomach turning! I especially liked the darkness and monochrome colour palette of the police investigation scenes, a choice clearly reflecting how they see the world and the characters they're interviewing. In summary: it's good, you're kept guessing throughout, and it's definitely worth a watch.
