The Screaming Silent

You watch it go round and round, tumble tumble, flip flop..and nothing really happens. The acting was more Blair Witch than Blair Witch, and I got up halfway through to make some dinner and by the time I got back still nothing had happened. There's this vague gist of something underdeveloped in the plot that breaches the surface every so often...but like the enticing whiff of fried onions on a burger stand, it just doesn't cut the mustard.

Not even any attempt at a plot. Boring. Terrible, jerky camera angles. Bizarre sound track. Did I mention that there;s no plot? It looks exactly like some weak, self-indulgent first-time producer was taking the piss. I recommend avoiding this movie unless you enjoy being alternately bored to death or annoyed.

I wanted to raise the score a bit due to the really good fx, which don't look like cgi, and the little homages to better films, except for the one at the end which is just cringeworthy, but that's the entire problem with this movie, you can admire some aspects at the same time you are grimacing at others. Too much time wasted on setup, rushed editing, illogical character arcs and actions and far too many unanswered questions and opportunities ruins what could have been a good story, but I did watch to the end and yes, I agree, the horror, the horror, at wasted potential.

This is a disappointing and clichéd effort. It reminds me of "The Blair Witch Project" with hand-held camera footage and an incoherent script that seems to be put together by a group of college students; a 20 year old format that was good for a few movies.

This movie gets VERY tedious very quickly, there is too much arguing among themselves to the point of it being annoying. The characters are flat and poorly defined, I didn't care if they lived or died or if they got through to a safe and/or happy ending. At 1 hour and 47 minutes, it's an unremarkable, forgettable movie.

I give this 2/10, but if you like this type of movie, you may enjoy it. :)

So, the movie could have been like 38 minutes shorter. The first 38 minutes were about the main male character trying to persuade a girl to star in his movie. The plot is bad. I mean really bad. The main male character acts like a total d*che so, there is no sympathy at all for him. I wished he died from the first 10 minutes. Don't waste almost 2hrs from your life to watch this mess of a film
