Sweet Insanity

I guess I was duped by the reviews the cast & crew posted. I swear I haven't seen a worse film in years. Pure junk. They didn't even try. It was SO bad, in fact, that I actually bothered to register here at IMDb to warn others.

Totally predictable. A generic hum for dialogue. Cute girls that don't show a thing (even in a hot tub). Just pure crap. I'm shocked they even bothered to make this flick. I really wish I could say something good about it but I can't. There's no point going into details because the filmmakers didn't care enough to bother with that stuff either. Just pure crap.

this is pretty much your run of the mill teen slasher movie: complete with the beautiful people clique, the gratuitous sex, the stereotypical characters (btw did anyone else find them all really rude?), the drugs & booze... the whole package really... i'd also add that the PLOT IS THIN & UNORIGINAL.

i guess it's MILDLY ENTERTAINING, i've got nothing against light entertainment it boasts ALRIGHT SUSPENSE (we know what's going to happen from the start but not really why). it is also QUITE SCARY due to an ACHIEVED TENSION & UNSETTLING MOOD (although i think the director's use of "arty" shots didn't contribute that much). furthermore there are A FEW GOOD LINES in there (yet this may well be due to the fact they are cheesy and bring a whole other level to the film)... but the writing is greatly let down by the poor acting.

i'm aware that this is an independent movie (quite glossy and well "finished" i have to say in it's defence), so i guess you could try and justify this sort of thing... but THE ACTING WAS REALLY DIRE!(i mean jc vandamme/c. norris/c.bronson league, but to make it worst they seem like they're competing for the crown)... you know, the embarrassing & painful kind... the obvious guess is that their priority was the look of the cast (i've got nothing against a bit of eye candy & this was probably not such a bad choice considering the targeted & actual audiences for these sort of films but it really sabotaged the film).

i never leave comments (especially long ones & concerning films i didn't enjoy... they're never the "main" ones are they?... i smell a rat), but the current comment did not satisfy me. this film takes risks? please... this is the official recipe of a tried and tested genre. they clearly knew there is a market for it. the only risks this movie took was the risk of making a bad movie with even worse actors.

sorry if i put anyone off but this was kind of the point. i suggest that U SHOULD NOT PAY to see this film (i'm glad i didn't), BORROW IT off a mate who fell for the comments/rating.

This was indeed a horrible movie. I don't know who to blame, the actors, the script, or the director? Maybe I should blame them all. First of all, the script was done poorly. Secondly, the actors were horrible, lack of talent is apparent. I congratulate the director for filming such an awful movie. I congratulate him because he has astounded me his ability to make such a horrible, horrible movie. People, run away from this movie. Awful plot, poor acting and directing. Your time is better spent just sleeping. At least you wake up feeling refreshed. I want my 1 and a half hours back after watching this excuse of a movie. :-(

My God this was bad!! The acting and directing is so very very bad. The plot (if there is one) is close to nothing. The few (2) persons giving this movie 10, must be involved in making it. I can not believe that any 'normal' movie going person could like this sh**. The effects is so homemade, and it really shows. I have seen a lot of horror / thrillers /slashers, but this is the worst i have seen. Not that the other movies had so much better effects, but the acting and directing was miles better then this. Hi hi... It's so bad you will start laughing at all the faults and stupid moments. Use your time on something better to do and not on this crap.

Though shot on video, but that means so little now as a praise or knock, it's decently shot though looks like video,actors look pleasant but cannot act. Big problem here is that very little happens and there is no excitement ever generated. Listen to the director commentary and you'll see perhaps why, as the things he chooses to talk about as being interesting are the least interesting aspects of uninteresting scenes. Very few deaths in the film, only one of these is even convincing to any degree, no nudity--though it teases you in this regard which is a total cheat. If you are telling a story without nudity, good, great even, but don't play the game of being sleazy and then not deliver. But this thing does not deliver on any level ever. Technically there have been worse things released by bigger companies and by MTI who did in fact unleash this talk fest, but what makes this so bad is it is lifeless. There is no effort to do anything of interest with the camera. There is no sense of how to tell a story or get performances out of "actors" It all seems to be done in a industrial film level of competence but who cares? The central idea, if you can even say it has one, so let's say the gimmick isn't convincing. It just plods along to a short running time that seems far far away as the pointless scenes follow one another. Why release this movie? Just don't bother watching it there is no reason. That's why I say it's bad, it's just so pointless, so meaningless, so so so dull.
