O Mensageiro do Último Dia

I saw this without watching the trailer or without reading anything bah it. Well, the pacing is its biggest issue but the movie is complemented with good acting, good lighting and a moody n surrealistic atmosphere.

The movie is captivating n creepy at times.

The first 22 mins is amazingly shot with oodles of atmosphere n some creepy stuff.

At first i thot this might be another rip off of Candyman, Boogeyman, Bye Bye Man, Slender Man, etc.

The opening sequence is fantastic and promises so much. Everything after that felt like the movie lost its way a little.

Not a bad movie, just could've been much more.

I went into The Empty Man not knowing anything about it. It was dumped out of nowhere and by the looks of the trailer I figured why. It seemed like a teen horror in the vein of countdown, truth or dare, or even bye bye man. But after the first twenty minutes of this film, I knew I was in for something much different. There is some truly chilling scenes in here, and the atmosphere just adds to the sense of dread. Now the climax of the film does get a bit clunky, but I imagine with this being based on a comic series, it's a lot more flushed out there, but even with an almost 2 1/2 hour run time, it felt like more was needed to be explained. Overall I came out of the empty man not feeling empty at all. It deserves an audience.

Hard to determine if this was a good movie or if I even liked it because I had no clue what was actually happening.

I basically goes from awesome to a bit less awesome, then way awesome, to wtf. In a nutshell.
