Not Alone

Haha read the review titled 'Derivitive Dreck' That aptly sums up this sub par movie. It's just bad, really bad. But I did make it to the end, so I have to give it 2/10.

I mean, how many people can drown in a pool before you just put cement in it and call it a day! I could have ended this movie in 10 minutes!

And what's with the Doctor? Why is he so desperate to kill it? They never explain anything going on, or why it's happening.

It was so boring and emotionally disconnected from the characters - I was hoping the alien - ghost - mass psychosis thing would just kill them all. Now THAT would have made for a great movie!

RECOMMENDATION: Skip This Garbage!! Unless you're trying to make yourself dumber (which the world is already there any way) - then go ahead, be my guest!

There's no horror here. I'm not talking about gory stuff, there's no atmosphere, no scare, no feeling with this movie. I guess the script didn't help but neither did the music. I wonder if the ones in charge with the music ever saw the raw version of the movie because man, the sounds are so not ok with the scenes.

All in all, if there's nothing else to do, you could watch it. But don't expect any bonding with the characters or a feeling of some sort.

I put this movie on more as background to working on my laptop. It was far more than background, and quickly moved into the foreground. No, it is not the perfect science fiction/horror movie that some of the reviewers are snobbishly looking for; but it is a well-acted story, with a decent plot and a nice little twist. For a low-budget flick, it was well worth watching.

...but poorly and illogically thought-out execution.

The movie starts as a pretty standard haunting but turns scientific quite quickly, however the behavior of both the scientists and the family isn't logical considering their background, position in society and respective levels of power they have, and the same can be said unfortunately of the supernatural element there.

Could have been a 7 or 8 with a better writer, less intent on including pseudo-feminist tropes, because while originally it might have been intended as subversion, in reality they are pseudo-feminist when you think of how they were written out in this movie.
