End of the Road

This film was a rather pleasant surprise. I watched it online via Amazon, but would love to get my hands on a copy of the DVD, as I feel this is a film worth owning.

I watched this film initially because of the cast, and they didn't disappoint. The characters were compelling and believable with appropriate reactions to their scenarios.

While the overall acting was strong, it was the clever writing and story that kept me hooked. The ending has a major twist that I didn't see coming - and this is coming from a person who can typically guess the entire plot within ten minutes of a film. It is more a comedy than a horror to me, but there's definitely a few scenes with intensity and 'shocks'. Well worth the watch!

I watch this movie after reading the only review available on IMDb. Too bad I didn't check the message board before. The person who wrote the review, studio scarab, also appears on the board talking about "our" film. No wonder the review is good if it comes from someone who worked on it ! The movie is on the level of a bad TV movie The story, the directing, the acting, all this is really bad.

That's one more example of fake review about a movie that is bad and seems even badder when members of the crew seem desperate enough to use such attempts to make people watch it.

At least if it was worth it, but sadly it's not, far from it.

Don't waste your time or your money on this.

1/10

The concept for this movie was a good one. Unfortunately the acting fell flat. But that's not the worse part. Acting in a movie like this isn't expected to be great. The worst part was the effects. They were just terrible. Not just low-budget "doing the best they can with what they have" terrible, but carelessly terrible. Even simple things like blood sprays were just done wrong.

Well, it started okay with a standard "ghost hunter" show from the behind the scenes perspective. It never explored the supernatural aspects much focusing more on personal motivations. And the twist at the end. The acting was shaky at first, but the last bit of the movie displayed the weakness of the actors all the more. Sigh. Okay, I did finish it, and production while decidedly low budget wasn't overly poor. The main actor seemed decent enough to carry the film.

Even the Star Trek talent in this movie couldn't save it. The writing is so very poor as is the delivery of the lines. I mean they're trying hard, maybe a little too hard. The lines are delivered without any conviction or with an over-the-top conviction. Music is overdone and often too loud for the dialog. It's just bad on every level. Save your self the time, skip it and find something else to watch.
