Crazy Texas

I watched this to see my high school friend Stacie Rowe kick ass in her role. You sounded and looked fantastic in this role my sweet! I can't wait to watch your other films. I was disappointed that I couldn't see your name in the credits. I went back to your part and thru to the end 5 times on 2 different apps and they both stopped before your credits hit the screen! I'm so proud of you and your accomplishments, get it woman!!!! The twists and turns on this film keep you guessing on what is happening next. I can't wait to see what the director will come up with next. Horror flicks always catch my eye!

This is a challenging and boldly serious story for even the best of filmmakers and especially for a first time filmmaker striking out into a world of such heavy competition. But Francis Juarez doesn't shy away or veer from the seriousness of his co-authored account, and that mature focus serves him and his film and its talented newcomer actors very well indeed, especially the two ladies who do a great job carrying most of the often disturbing narrative. I suspect there is a spiritual awareness behind Juarez's choice in making this film and I sympathize with that. It's not a film that will appeal to everyone, but it did appeal to me.

This is a really neat film because of the twists and turn. It may seem hard to solve, but if you watch it a few times, it really kicks in. During the second half of the film, it really starts to click and pick up speed and dynamism. It's cool to another great Texas film! The cinematography is exceptional along with the set design. This really does make you think about the depravity of humans and what could actually happen at the extremes of behavior. This one is a nail-biter that pulls you along until the big twists swing through totally catching viewers for surprise. Bravo to the actors, they are believable and fun to watch.

Stumbling upon the 2025 horror movie "Crazy Texas" by sheer random chance, and never having heard about it nor seen it, of course I opted to check it out. I am a huge fan of all things horror, after all. But I virtually didn't know what I was in for here, aside from what the synopsis revealed.

The storyline fell short of entertaining me, and it was a rather monotonous and sort of dull viewing experience to sit through this movie. It was a bit amazing that writers Jordan Bradley, Marc Isaacs and Francis Juarez collectively could managed to come up with so little.

Needless to say that I wasn't familiar with a single actress or actor on the cast list. The acting performances in "Crazy Texas" was, for the most parts, actually fair enough, though there wasn't anything outstanding to be witnessed throughout the course of the movie.

As for "Crazy Texas" being a horror movie? Well, don't get your hopes up. Maybe if you are a newcomer to the horror genre, you might find something scary or disturbing in the narrative. But I've been watching horror movies for more than 40 years, so this was a mere walk in the park. A disappointing and dull walk, mind you. This is definitely not a movie that I will return to watch a second time. Nor is it a movie that I would recommend horror fans to go out and watch.

My rating of director Francis Juarez's 2025 horror movie "Crazy Texas" lands on a three out of ten stars.

It was a great psychological thriller. Characters were complex but not overly as that you couldn't connect with them. Main character was legit creepy. Choice of locations for scenes was on point and really captured the vibe. I really put myself in the girls shoes and caught myself talking to the screen, "don't do it" "just shut up", etc. Music at the end could have been a little better to really capture the plot twist. Don't want to ruin the ending, but really gave me 6th sense vibes.

Really original idea and I can't wait to see more from this Director and cast. Heeps better than movies popular movies like Blair witch project.
