The Institute

I enjoyed this movie much more than I'd expected. The other reviews don't mention how much FUN it was. Yes it's an independent film but the premise and the actors were pretty good. The Couple worked well together and The Doctor was suitably creepy. It was certainly entertaining :)

If you watch the trailer before watching the film you can clearly see that this is an ULB (maybe even no-budget) feature. As such you have to grade features like these on a curve. Does it trip up? For sure it does, but it's clear that a majority of the errors are budgetary. Look at their IMDb and you can see this was created by a bunch of first time feature filmmakers and knowing that I've seen A LOT WORSE. I hope these filmmakers get to make more movies.

What a waste of time. The script must have been written by a 5 year old. Way too much gratuitous sex and nudity. A sort of orgy that seemed out of place and unnecessary. Of course all female nudity and very little male nudity. Heaven forbid we see a man's genitals. If it was supposed to be a horror flick, it failed. The "special effects" were so bad, it looked like amateur hour. It was only creepy. In my opinion the acting was terrible. All the secondary characters were insignificant and were a waste. Jarred Harper is a good actor but was wasted in this movie. The ending was stupid and didn't give the audience any closure. Don't waste your time.

Badly acted, directed and written.

The plot was fairly interesting but the execution was poor due to lack of talent and budget.

Gravitas seem to make these movies with a 50 quid budget and the are perfect for millennials who are scrolling through tik tok whilst not paying attention. Avoid.

Certainly a great attempt at using horror and creating a family. Interesting setup!

Some moments of real interesting execution. A fun campy film if you can see it that way.
