Little Bone Lodge

This is a movie to my taste. It was recommended to me and I was not disappointed. The story has some unexpected twists that worked perfectly and pretty soon you realize there are more secrets than what meets the eye. The acting was overall very good and each of the actors really did a fantastic job. I was particularly impressed by the dynamic between the two brothers and their intense and complex relationship. The film takes place during a stormy night which adds mystery and atmosphere to the set. It's a low-budget production but often (not always) they surpass bombastic, big-budget Hollywood movies filled with CGI effects. Another this I appreciated was that the action began pretty early so it's not really a slow-burner. The ending is somewhat predictable but all in all this is definitely a film worth watching if you like mystery thrillers. I give it 7 out of 10 easily.

From the first 10 minutes you can pretty much predict the general plot, and while many movies would fail there this one does not. The acting is excellent, and there are still enough plot twists to add some spice to the story.

It is very well made. The setting is fine the camera work is excellent, the sound is great.

It has horror elements albeit grounded. Its horror like watching Hitchcocks Psycho is horror. Some of the shocking scenes are worthy of the movie Silence of the Lambs.

Not normally what I like, more of an Insidious type of guy, but the whole family liked it including teenagers. The ending is also pretty good, bittersweet but ok even for those who like "happy" endings.

On a stormy night, 2 criminals on the run, one bleeding badly arrive at an isolated farmhouse. Living there is a family - the mother (Joely Richardson), her daughter and paralysed husband. The mother has the skills to stop the bleeding, but one of the men pulls a gun and takes control, calling his boss to come and pick him up. However, it soon becomes clear to the men that this family unit is not what it seems.

Clever little thriller - not really a horror - which with all its twists and turns and changes of allegiances bring you with the story rather than just dumps the next twist in your lap like a jump scare. Everyone in it is very good, especially Richardson as the tough and mysterious matriarch and Harry Cadby as one of the crooks with troubling mental health issue.

I had this on my radar for quite some time but never could find it as I was looking for "Little Bone Lodge" when the title on streaming is "The Last Exit". I far more like the title "Little Bone Lodge" but that is neither here nor there.

This was more interesting than I thought it was going to be. It had quite a few intriguing aspects and was a very layered story. It had many building blocks that I have seen before but maybe not all together in one story. I think some of the intrigue was dimmed a bit due to its predictability, but it was still there nonetheless.

The pacing was also just a little off for what it was. I think some of that was due to this movie faining as a horror/thriller, and while there were certainly aspects of each, it felt like mostly a drama to me.

There is no denying the exciting twists and turn throughout this story all while being supported by some pretty stellar performances. I think this was on the edge of being something quite cool but missed just a little bit. Regardless, still above average and would recommend.

True, more a thriller than a horror film,(no zombies or ghosts...lol) but...well worth watching.

Saw another reviewer said ''after 20 minutes , so predictable'' he quit watching....... Damn near took his advice ,glad I DIDN'T.

The trailer comes across like countless movies about stumbling into some nut job family , nope a better story.

A few good twists to it.

Pacing is perfect, Begin's telling ya just enough about the characters to make ya think ya know them , then the story steadily increases in detail,action and twists.

As far as acting and writing goes..Everyone convincing , story line kept me pulled in till the end.

{Huge Kudos to the woman that played the ''MOM''} --------------------------------------------------------------------- IMHO There are movies well worth watching ,but only once. Because the twists.

This movie is worth a watch.
