Morbid

As a person who has seen a vast number of horror films in my time I can whole heartedly say this is the WORST movie my eyes have ever been forced to endure. I can forgive the low budget props and effects, however there is no excuse for rhe lifeless performances within this production. When a small child who is in it for less than 3 minutes at the end is the best actor in the movie that says it all. Then there is the script... wow what a tragedy that is. People have said the game concept is ok but it is never explained enough to sy such a thing.

My partner and I tried to find one good thing about this film... we are still thinking. PLEASE DONT WASTE YOUR TIME WITH THIS MOVIE Life is too short! My partner has suggested watching it as it will make you realise how outstanding all other movies are... but I think paint drying would be more worth your time.

I found this a fairly decent movie. Granted the actresses did lack some kind of emotion and feeling, but giving them the benefit of the doubt, I think they made the movie work with the overall feel of it, and all actors have to start somewhere right?

The concept of the game itself is a really clever and original idea. I think if they had just a slightly higher budget it could have been depicted in a more graphic matter, considering the context of the game itself.

Definitely something that can be re-made into something that could rival Ouija if the budget is high enough. Id love to see a remake with few known faces to see how much of a good film it could actually be.

Ashlynn Cox is from my hometown but hmmm...Maybe hemorrhoid commercials. I should have given this a 1 star rating but, I watched it all the way to the end so I gave it a 2 star. The ladies are very. Easy on the. Eyes is the only plus.

Bad! Really bad! Cult classic bad!

This is not as bad as some of the reviews would lead you to believe. The movie is low budget but doesnt look all that cheap.

The problem lies in the pretty crappy direction and really bad acting.

That sounds like a lot to bring the rating down, but certainly not to a one.

Yes, some of it is downright stupid and because of the poor direction it becomes rather tedious as the action proceeds, but it's an OK watch if you're not doing anything else for an hour plus.

The movie is sort of set up like an anthology flick with separate sorties involving each of the girls. It needs nudity to sustain the interest.

Plot

A group of friends at a Halloween party play a Japanese board game called Morbid - where answers to the game could mean the difference between life and death.

Cast

Zero familiarity with anyone involved, and most were truly awful

Verdict

There's a sub-genre of horror I love, namely where people are thrown into a deadly game. Whether it be Cube, Circle, The Human Race, Would You Rather or one of countless others. I was excited for Morbid as it's another one, but boy it's not on the same level.

The first thing you notice is how cheap it all feels, the cast come across as untrained, the effects are pretty much non-existent, the kills are some of the worst I've seen in a long while and the plot is random imagery with absolutely no coherence.

I watched it with the missus and we both were in awe at the absolute mess we were witnessing.

I don't know what can be said other than I recommend it, as something to avoid.

Rants

Anyone seen Circle? That was a hell of a film, can be found on Netflix I believe or at least it can in the UK I think. Another movie with a bunch of people who wake up in a strange place and are forced to play a game of death where there can only be one winner. Full of moral and ethical choices it's fascinating, entertaining and one that keeps you thinking long after. Basically it's everything Morbid is not.

Breakdown

All feels cheap Terrible kills Plot is dreadful.
