Let Us In

This movie would have gotten a better rating if it wasn't for the disrespectful and horrific use of AAVE used throughout the film. I mean the level of cringe was too unbearable for me to just scrape by and finish the movie. It was most likely a non Black American millennial or older who wrote this trash of a dialogue.

The film really should've been made with high schoolers or maybe college students. Because some elements of the film felt out of place for middle schoolers. At times I felt like this movie could have been a comedy, which might have made it more bearable to watch. The only saving grace I felt was the the use of Tobin Bell (even though he was in it for a few minutes). The lore of the "Black eyed children" could've been better explained and the ending of this film was kinda disappointing.

For anyone interested in the paranormal, believing this film to be the real deal, my advice is move along. I was sorely disappointed being someone very familiar with the actual urban legend of the Black-Eyed Kids. It may be a great family movie to watch with kids 8-12 but wasn't what I expected at all. For a much better film on BEK, check out Hulu's Into the Dark: They Come Knocking. Much more true to the paranormal research.

There were some cringe moments but it's a pretty good movie.

Ok I just get it that this one was not suitable for horror genre but still the movie was good. Acting was good,story was also good,and those black eyed people wasn't even too bad. I enjoyed the whole story from starting to ending.bBut maybe ending was kind of bit too dull. But yeah allover movie was worth to watch.

Terribly written. Needed a better script, actors were decent but the story was BAD. And it doesn't even follow the urban legend of the Black-Eyed Kids.
