L'odio che uccide

Lincoln, a bullied rock kid, is sent out to a reform school out in the desert after sticking a fork in the face of one of his tormentors. Unfortunately the bullying starts all over again, however the spirit of a bullied dead girl called Moira just happens to be on hand to carry out bloody revenge on his new tormentors, often by razor blade. Quite an interesting idea. Can't help but feel sorry for this guy, though he does find comfort in the arms of a beautiful girl. Some fairly good gore to be seen, acting and production values both reasonable. Look out for a short mid-credits scene. Pretty average overall.

I didn't think this was a horrible movie, but I could feel that this was an attempt for some of the Disney stars try to break away from their previous "goody goody" roles that they are well known for. I can say that at least the acting was much better here than it was there. It is interesting to me to see what direction these guys go in order to escape from the company. I'm interested in seeing what the future holds for them. I just hope they do not go crazy as we have seen in the past. Otherwise, the movie to me seemed alright, albeit a little slow paced. There could have been more character development in the protagonist. I also felt the "cheerleader" wasn't really believable. I don't see a person like that trying to see what it is like to be the victim. When we first meet her, she is hugging up to a bully, yet she says she hates them. Does anyone else see a problem with this?

The first 30 minutes are really solid, which is more like a psychological drama-thriller than anything else.

But on the 30 minute mark that changes and it throws a supernatural twist on you which feels really random and took me out of the movie for a bit, but once I accepted that this is what the movie is like now I slowly but safely started getting into it again.

And even though the movie most certainly is not without it's flaws I must say that this wasn't too bad of a watch, even though it's nothing spectacular but yeah I've seen hundreds of horrors that are a lot worse than this for sure... Seen hundreds that are better as well but that's beyond the point lol.

And the acting is pretty good, and the gore is excellent, one complaint would be that occasionally the cast speak really low and it's hard to hear over the dark melodies being played in the background but overall not too shabby, better than I expected considering the rating of (currently) 4.6/10 for sure.

5.5/10 from me, or rounded up to a 6.

Some Kind os Hate is a clear example of I want to and I can't. An example of I have the idea but either I lack the resources and/or talent to carry it out in a worthy way. It is an example of good script, weak casting (although it doesn't help that I have seen it in such a poor Spanish dubbed version) and a direction that stays between two waters, those of the mystery and those of the slasher without getting clear at any time, making the plot insipid and drowning in that sea of doubts.

The bullying theme is not taken too seriously when it should be its main weapon.

The good: The short length and some bloody scenes.

The bad: It's forgotten as soon as it's over.

It sickens me to see how poorly people rate horror movies these days. I once belonged to a group of horror movie fans, but now I am alone.

Don't get me wrong. I hate B-movies. I hate the majority of Redbox horror movies that most people have not heard of. But this movie is truly something good and special, and to see it thrown in the gutter by people who I would have trusted as my horror loving peers, has disappointed me.

I remember seeing "It follows" a couple years back and I thought it rocked. It was a throw back to 80s horror that I really appreciated it. So I did some google searches looking for the next "It Follows". That is when I came across my first internet review of Some Kind of Hate.

When I watched it, I was not disappointed. I guess you could call this film a cult horror classic, since it is apparent from other reviews, that a very unique clique of people will appreciate this film for what it offers.

From storyline, to acting, to environment, to just the feel and soundtrack and nature of the film, I really enjoyed it. If I was looking at these IMDb reviews, I would never have given it a chance.

The plot and dialogue is simple, but interesting. One of the main characters is victim is extreme bullying. Karma takes spiritual form and comes back with a vengeance. It's not filled with the gore and special effects throughout the movie you might see in most horror movies that make it to the big screen, but its got story and heart. For the record, I would give it 1 star less than It Follows. But this still is a good movie, worthy of re-watching over the years.
