Sacrilege

This was another Z list movie with bad acting. I hate when I want to watch a good flick and it's a low budget film that just isn't good.

The premise is dumb and cliché - ewwwwww, a haunted music box from a yard sale! And the plot leads nowhere from there - people die or they are possessed or they are/aren't. It's really hard to tell or care. A medium is consulted. Demonic tummy carvings ensue. All stuff you have seen in far better movies and TV shows. The acting is community theater bad. The "effects" are lame. It is just another clunker in the standard rash of DIY horror movies since the advent of streaming services. It's fairly dreadful.

Paint a wall, film it drying, post that to the internet, watch it in place of this.

I really enjoyed Sacrilege! It was a great rainy night movie! If possession and the demonic intrigue you, this movie is for you. There were several plot twists and the movie did a really good job of holding my attention (which at times can be a daunting task!). I would recommend it to anyone who enjoys paranormal movies!

What initially drew me in to watch "Sacrilege" was the poster/cover for the movie. It shows a ghostly nun with some Satanic imagery as well. So it did seem like it could have the potential to be a rather interesting movie, and I must say that the poster/cover was quite nicely made and looked rather professional.

The movie, well it didn't really fully live up to what I had expected it to be. Was it better? Nope, most definitely not. The movie is adequate, I will say that much, it just turned out to be something rather different from what I thought it would be. And the movie's poster/cover has absolutely nothing to do with the movie, so disregard this from being connected to the movie. It only serves as bait to lure you in.

I will say that the production value of the movie was quite good and it was definitely one of the stronger aspects of the movie. Especially so since the storyline itself was very generic and mundane. If you have seen other movies that involve supernatural entities and hauntings, then you already know what you are in for here. Don't expect to be surprised in any way.

As for the acting in the movie, well people were doing adequate jobs with their given roles and characters. I wasn't familiar with anyone on the cast list, which usually works well for me and in favor of the movie; as I enjoy watching new talents in movies.

The music in the movie was a bit too over-dramatic and was bordering on being downright annoying at times. Sure, it was supposed to supplement the suspense and intensity of the movie, but what they thinking with some of the music they opted for? And it was also a bit too loud compared to the dialogue.

"Sacrilege" is a rather bland and mediocre movies in this particular genre. It was adequately entertaining enough for what it was, just don't get your hopes up too high for this movie.

The storyline was predictable and straight forward. And there were no twists or turns to the storyline along the way, which made for a rather plain and plotted course throughout the movie. The pacing of the movie was rather slow, but at least things were happening.

All in all, then "Sacrilege" is a below average movie for this particular genre. There are far better movies available if you enjoy this genre of movies.

I did not like this movie at all. The story is one that we have seen many times and the script does not bring anything new here. The cinematography has a little creepiness to it, but that is about all there is to say positively.

The BIG issue with this movie is the acting. It is horrible. The entire cast does a terrible job of anything more than reading their lines. It is obvious in the first 5 minutes of the film that these folks brought nothing to their characters. The characters were poorly written cartoons as well, but the actors had no emotion or anything else to give to this movie.
