The Nameless Days

Well, no wonder that the days were nameless, because the 2022 horror mystery "The Nameless Days" was a massive swing and a miss from writers and directors Andrew Mecham and Matthew Whedon.

Sure, when I sat down to watch "The Nameless Days" it was without knowing anything about the movie, aside from it being a horror movie. I found the movie's cover/poster to be interesting, and since it was a horror movie that I hadn't already seen, I needed no persuasion to sit down and watch it.

But the storyline in "The Nameless Days" was just bland and downright boring. I actually drifted off to sleep twice during the monotonous and pointless narrative that moved with the speed of snails. So yeah, you're not exactly in for a grand moment in horror cinema with this movie.

The acting performances in the movie were adequate. Not great mind you, but not bad either. So at least the movie had that working for it. I wasn't familiar with the cast here, which I usually enjoy when watching movies, but the cast in "The Nameless Days" literally had nothing to work with.

Visually then "The Nameless Days" was bland. Again, you're not in for a grand cinematic experience in the horror genre, should you opt to sit down and watch this movie.

My rating of "The Nameless Days" lands on a two out of ten stars. This is not a movie that I would recommend you waste your time, money or effort on. Some of us did suffer through the ordeal so you don't have to.

There is nothing really too wrong with this film apart from that it is so drawn out and boring.

Everything is average. It's not the kind of really bad film you sometimes get, where it looks amateurish. No, it looked ok, the actors were ok, the camera work was ok. Everything was ok and was a perfect ground for something chilling. However it never happened.

A lot of darkness and running from the monster. Personally I am mostly bored at the moment in any film when they just seem to run away and are chased by whatever. This film was almost the whole time just running and hiding, and that was very boring.

I gave it a 3 because it wasn't an insult like some films. The actors deserved that much. They were likeable but boring.

This is not going to hold anyone's attention and nothing exciting ever happens. Even what should be exciting is boring.

If you want a background movie for chatting with friends, this is kind of ideal. It will never grab the attention of anyone in the room away from your chatting, and yet you can have some moving images on, like a fireplace.

I enjoyed this film, I appreciated that it gave more of a storyline. So many horror flicks rely just on gore and scare leaving. Nameless days has an interesting storyline, message, and the spook factor! It's a low budget film that is well done!

The movie could have been way better, the plot had potential with the use of this lore, but it was executed poorly. The mid-range acting skills killed the mood on several occassions and the plotholes didn't help either. At one point the father said to his daughter "don't look" while sort of making an attempt to shield her? It didn't work at all though, because his hand was uselessly waving around in the air instead of actually trying to cover her face or turn her away from the scene. If you watch it, you'll know what I mean.

In my opinion the movie was quite boring and I don't necessarily even recommend it.

An Aztec demon hounds the American-Mexican border for 5 days. Rahui and his pregnant sister Gabriela are trying to cross the border when the supernatural being attacks the group. Track athlete Nicole (Ally Ioannides) and her migrant-hating father Charlie (Charles Halford) live on the family ranch at the border.

This is functional as a B-horror movie with a few problems. The biggest issue is the monster. I don't like her. She's too slow. Nicole is supposed to be a track athlete. It seems set up for a fast monster to chase after her. She's not scary enough. For a horror, that is deadly. There are also a few minor issues with the acting, the staging, and the plot. If they fix the monster, this would be fine.
