Curse of Crom: The Legend of Halloween

Randomly picked this movie with zero knowledge or expectations, and it delivered brilliantly! Word of advice, turn off closed captions to avoid hints during some scenes. But yeah, this was just a fun, slightly spooky, good for the whole family type of movie. Zero blood, no nightmare inducing murder clowns, no serial killers... just a ghostly monster and a gang of teena to solve a mystery. Me and my oldest enjoyed the heck out of it. Highly recommended to anybody who wants some Halloween fun. The naturalistic acting was great, even when they cranked up the comic relief, it was just the right balance of serious and comedy. Just watch it, you'll enjoy it.

It was a fun ride but watching 30 something actors playing scared high schoolers takes the edge off the spooky vibe. The monster is kinda cheesy, but the atmosphere is set up pretty well and the climax moments are pretty effective. For a no-name semi professional production company it was worth watching! The acting was pretty good and fairly believable with the main character being played convincingly by the lead actress. The only wooden portrayal seems to have come from the lead male actor who looks to be the oldest teenage in cinematic history who also seemed to be oblivious to the pretty overt love triangle that becomes apparent within the first ten minutes of the movie.. Sorry I watched it? No, not at all. Would I watch it again? Heck no!

I didn't know what to expect but I was kind of in the mood for a horror movie when I came across this. I saw the trailer and it looked interesting so I thought I'd give it a go. I always like movies involving Halloween. Though it definitely had horror elements and some creepy parts, for me hands down it was the cast, the acting, script and the comedy. There were several laugh out loud moments for me and I thought the writing was very well done. The male actor Tanner stole the movie imo. His delivery was spot on and the rest of the cast did very well too. It was a very well written script which made the comedy come out. The scene where the entity is coming for him and he first decides to grab the sandwich he just made previously was hysterical. His facial expressions and timing was just brilliant. For an indie film I was very impressed. Again I was not expecting anything and was very pleasantly surprised.

A little spooky, a little cheesy, and a lot of fun to watch. There are parts that will be scary for young children, but for the most part it is a fun, spooky, family friendly Halloween movie. Comedic relief is scattered throughout One of my favorite parts is when a scared teenage guy pauses to grab his food off of the table before running off to hide, but leaves his cell phone behind. My son would totally do that.

If you're looking for a serious scary movie, this is not it.

If you're a parent looking for a "safe" Halloween movie for your kids, or anyone looking for something good, clean and not dark (albeit spooky and with demons) to watch, this is your movie.

This PG-13 style horror movie is surprisingly not dumb. I don't know why, but despite the low budget and tired mythology Curse of Crom is entertaining and fun for a light watch. It is reminiscent of silly horror movies of the 1980s like The Gremlins or Ghoulies. I would not recommend it outside of the Halloween season, though - its charm is limited to holiday specific movies.

A group of high school students are just average people, they aren't obnoxious and disposable like slasher characters. The main character Mary has the WORST Republican step-dad in the world, though. Can you imagine telling a 17 year old to drive for Door Dash every night to pay for college, he tries to force her to skip hanging out with friends or celebrating Halloween. I kind of wish he met a different end, to be honest.
