A Bruxa da Casa ao Lado

The Wretched is a lovely looking movie. Nicely acted and shot, with decent, practical special effects. I struggled with the story, which was ultimately a bit un-interesting.

Ben visits his father at a lakeside town. Some kind of demon-thing lives under a tree and has the power to cast a spell on people such that they 'forget' about the existence of loved ones around them. Paranoia sets in for Ben when neighbours are acting strangely ...

It's a well-edited mainstream pleaser but hanging off a story which doesn't add up very well. Some elements are great but it feels like another short that has prematurely evolved into a lacking feature, devoid of tension and scares.

It was well-received at FrightFest; I felt I was in the minority who didn't quite get it. If you're a fan of spooky, ghost/wraith type horror, it's entirely possible you might enjoy The Wretched. I didn't dislike it but nor did I take much away from it.

I really like this movie its very well made the gore everything the witch is very mean and spares no one.

The effects where also very good. There is a lot of horror movies being made theses days and to be honest 99% are really bad but this one was a great surprise and stands out from the pack.

Almost there. I love a good scare. This one was a great concept. Missed the mark with no real character development. No build up. Needed to be drawn out .. more tense. enjoyed with the 14 year old teenagers that I watched with but for me .. i wanted to be scared but it never happened. 20% more and it would have been great.

I really enjoyed this one, the plot is quite simple but intriguing and thoroughly engaging. The visual and sound effects were perfect and the acting was good. Nice little gem this one. Watch it with the lights out at night for added effect 😉

Brilliant and well done horror. Amazing, considering the budget, don't let this put you off though, the quality and story were amazing.

Due to the pandemic, crap movies seem to be on the loose, this movie definitely doesn't fall into that category. It was refreshing.
