The Legend of Jack and Jill

When you start watching some independent movies that were done on a small budget they are not going to be great. Especially horror films which are a much loved genre. I always remember cheapness such as The Wicker Man. Of course, this became a cult classic made on a shoe string budget. One could easily class The Ritual as a great piece of horror movie making on a cheap budget. So it's fair to say that you shouldn't judge a horror movie by its bank balance. That being said, The Legend of Jack and Jill absolutely takes the biscuit when it comes to utter rubbish. By the way, the original nursery rhyme originates no later than the early 18th century, Not this century as the movie suggests. I watched this movie due to Netflix giving it a very respectable 4.3 out of five.

Lets move forward.

The music score is annoying and dreadful.

The makeup is even worse than the music score.

All the adult actors are pitifully bad.

I won't pick on the cameo by the two kids as this was the best acting in the entire movie.

The story line was a joke.

Whoever wrote the script might want to rethink their career.

The characters were stereotypical. Either the women never thought to pick up a weapon and for some stupid reason always ran into one of the killers.

The men were even more stupid and at points in the movie, apparently deaf.

The side story was boring and pointless.

And finally, the best part of this movie was when the credits started rolling.

I really look for some good in a movie, even if I don't care for it. Be aware, there is nothing good lurking in the depths of this one.

The very best thing I can say about this movie is, please don't get it mixed up with the 2011 Jack and Jill which is a comedy starring Adam Sandler.

Another incredibly bad cell phone movie. Your hint when writer, director same PERSON N film has not SINGLE person you ever heard of.

Avoid like it the ACTUAL plague.....

Couldn't handle the overuse of the word 'babe' and the awful acting.

Maybe I'll try again another time, but the first murder was subpar and I didn't want to waste my time if it wasn't gonna get better.

Was scrolling through prime last night and this cover caught the eye. I've been very fortunate with the horror section in prime lately and came across some absolute low budget gems like "The Halloween Party", "The Selling" "super Hot" and "Making Monsters". Each of these films work within their means and did their best to deliver a good compelling story with a limited budget. This did not, unfortunately. Its was just cliche after cliche after cliche so I gave it 10 mins and just couldn't watch anymore.

Abby Casson Thompson is beautiful, just for her, this movie is worth a 3 for me.

The film is bad, the script could be acceptable if the performances had been convincing, I understand the low budget, but something better could have been done.

But again, Abby and her legs were the main focus I gave to the film, even a bad performance, her beauty makes up for it. The movie lacks emotions, Jack And Jill's makeup is very bad, it is not explained if they use a mask with human skin or if it is a deformity that happened to them over time.

Anyway, it's good to watch movies like this, to pass the time or just to have fun.
