Deep Web: O Show da Morte

This movie is a very weird one to review. Its quality throughout its duration ranges from awful to stupid fun. It is shot and lit relatively well, however, it seems that for as much effort they put into the camera and lighting work, a fraction of it was put into the script, plot, and finding competent actors.

The main character is Tubi's attempt to have a relatable millennial protagonist, but my friends and I all ended up hating his, true crime podcaster persona. Also, the movie tries to make him queer-coded with his family shunning him for a reason we are not privy to, however, it is very clear that the writers are insinuating that he is gay. But in the end, they pulled their punches having him and the final girl become a couple. This might've been Tubi stepping in saying they didn't want a queer main character.

Tubi clearly spent more money on this original than they do on most other ones (see "Shark side of the moon") however their understanding of the dark web is just laughably bad. You could watch 5 SomeOrdinayGamers videos and have a better understanding of it than the writers do.

By the way, the girl killer is on a dark website called "readit" in one scene which I thought was stupidly funny.

This is another one of those "internet bad" movies where movie studios will use the boogeyman of the deep web in order to get unsuspecting people to view the movie.

While not as blatantly exploitative as movies like Unfriended: Dark Web and Megan is Missing, a lot of this movie's "horror" relies on people not having a basic understanding of how the deep web works.

Overall, a fun, stupid movie that you shouldn't show to your cinema studies friends, but a decent one to show to your bad movie friends.

There seems to be an effort lately to make these kinds of horror movies a little better again. This is good news because the audience deserves better. Creating creative scenes in low-budget productions can't be easy, and The Deep Web Murdershow dares to try. Is it enough? Of course not. The production, which resembles the horror movies you have watched before, starts very quickly. It slows down after a while, but then the tension increases rapidly. There could have been better acting and better scenes with wild content, but for the genre, it can be watched without getting bored. The ending is more or less predictable and some parts are minus points, but it can be considered a good choice among similar ones.

Low budget Indy's are tricky. Because you are limited by your budget, you need to cut corners. You can't hire A list actors, nor can you purchase the best locations, makeup artists, etc.

These limitations hold you back but you try to over deliver in the places you can.

The late director Dan Zachary didn't deliver the most ground breaking script, there's a second act sag which happens after Ethan learns of his sisters death which slows the movie down, but once the detective work and mystery about what or who the murdershow is begins things start to pick up the pace which leads to a well executed finale.

Dans trio of creepy clown like villains are well thought out and designed. You can even find their masks at your local costume shop if you are lucky.

It is this creativity on display which makes the film fun and unique.

Brendan Fletcher plays shadowmonkey and he steals the show with his over the top antics. And what can I say about Kimi Alexander. She starts off as a victim and quickly turns into a kick ass heroine in the same league as Laurie Strode, or Nancy from A nightmare on elm street. Aiden Howard might be the weakest link in the cast, shining in moments and sometimes not as convincing as one would like.

If you like a quick horror flick on a dark night and can get through that second act sag this movie will deliver for you.

Not even so bad it's good, it's just bad.

Everything is over exaggerated, I have no idea what they were going for. In parts it's like they were trying to be serious, in others it was as if they said screw it, let's make the most hammed up ridiculous film we can make.

Absolutely nothing sticks and everything stinks.

All but one of the actors were atrocious, seriously, only one of them could actually act.

The dialogue is hilariously bad, not a single conversation in the film would happen in real life.

It's a shame because the premise was decent, by the right people it could have been great, alas it was far from it.

Avoid like the plague.

This move is weird and awfully good . The silent so much during scenes not knowing what's going on or what's gonna happen but the next scene if even better . I'm a horror and gory movies lover and this what a little bit of mix of both but with a less budget in some scenes . Not all of them but still thrilling and suspenseful at the same time . I would definitely recommend this movie to anybody bc it's it particularly good if you pay attention and watch the movie how it is. Definitely can watch this movie over And over again at any family gathering or October season which is scary movies season.
