The Burned Over District

I'm usually not a big horror fan, but this movie was the exception. It was a great script, with great acting. All the characters were developed nicely. I loved that they didn't just go from one action scene to another without thought to the characters and the story. The film was unique and not your typical horror movie. So many horror movies have bad acting and only seem to care about trying to shock you. The Burned Over District kept me engaged and had the perfect amount of gore! The quality of the movie was fantastic. Some Independent Movies look low budget but this did not. Awesome movie that both horror fans and non horror fans will love!

"The Burned Over District" is a truly terrifying folk horror story about a Puritan cult that worships an ancient evil in the backwoods of Upstate New York.

The creators of the film, brothers James and Vince Coleman, are very similar in style and fiendishness to the Philippou Brothers ("Talk To Me"). The Coleman Bros. Cinematography echoes A24 classics like "Hereditary" but with their own spin.

The practical effects in this movie are perfect and there are some really strong performances (particularly from Amy Zubieta, Jon Sheedy and Michael Ciesla). The OST by Mike Chibante is amazing.

The movie has the feel of "Pet Sematary" and it plays on some historic events that led to the area being dubbed "The Burned Over District," as religious fanaticism caught on like wildfire in the 1800's. The film was shot entirely in the actual historic Burned Over District which leads to the authenticity of the storytelling.

This movie is unique and stands out among all of the cookie cutter Blumhouse ripoffs that oversaturate the current VOD market. If you're looking for a genuinely fun and scary movie, tune into "The Burned Over District." You can thank me later!

This starts with a terrible accident where a woman dies. In the aftermath, her widowed husband tries to make sense of what has happened whilst his family rally around him. I could not have guessed where this was going and was pleasantly surprised with the quality of this movie. It has some truly scary moments and bags of atmosphere. The acting feels natural and whilst this isn't a mega budget production, it shows real promise for all the key players. I will certainly be looking out for other movies from this team. It's dark and brooding but not in a contrived way. Some scenes are difficult to watch but not lingering. I'd definitely recommend this, give it a go!

Wow, I have to say I'm impressed! The Coleman Brothers are extremely talented! I enjoyed the thrill of this movie, it really kept you on your toes. The detail in the storyline was really invigorating. The trailer is originally what had gotten me hooked. It certainly kept you on your toes and wanting to know more so you have to watch the movie. I enjoyed this very very much. It's difficult to give any review with out giving it away- I would absolutely recommend watching this movie more than one time. Definitely a great film. Great job! I can not wait to see what more The Coleman brothers have in store!

This movie hits so many different horror movie elements while still keeping you on your toes and has a compelling storyline with twist and turns I seriously didn't see coming! I Would highly recommend this movie to anyone who loves this genre 10/10!! The creative minds behind this movie have also started a mini series on YouTube that is TO DIE FOR!!! If you love horror and thriller movies then you and your friends will be on the edge of your seats in the ever thickening plot twists that makes up the story behind The Burned Over District! These up and coming directors have it all down pat with this movie!!
