Paranormal Haunting: The Curse of the Blue Moon Inn

I figured it out. This is not a "real" movie. It is a front, made only to launder Yakuza drug money. That is the only logical explanation as to why this movie exists. I guarantee if I gave my 15 year old $40 and a camera and told him to make a scary movie with it, it would be a better movie than this. The worst acting you have ever seen. I'm positive that they did not rehearse one scene. Sometimes you can almost see the actor look to the director for approval. And I'm sure they used one of those lights that have a hook on it, like when you're working on your car, for the lighting. Be warned though, you can't get the hour and a half back after watching this monstrosity. You should watch it though, just for the OMG factor alone. Oh, and it had to filmed using a smart phone, and not a new, good one either, but like a htc incredible.

I think this was filmed with a damaged, vintage cell phone. I wasn't sure if the blurred, odd colors were deliberate or an attempt at spooky ambience.

The acting was elementary school Christmas school play, & some scenes that suddenly came out of nowhere, that lasted for 15 seconds & then jumped to another scene or a sudden bedroom scene with comedic sex talk that popped in out of nowhere & then was gone left me wondering if these people had any experience whatsoever in making a film or had even attempted to learn about what makes a good movie.

The first several minutes were basically nothing but loud, distracting music...so loud, I couldn't understand a word the "actors" were saying. I can understand why closed caption was given.

There was nothing frightening or suspenseful about this movie. Unless you're in the mood for a D movie, I'd pass.

Let's start with bad things shall we? The movie is so blurry you can't see half the time. Half of the film is a black screen. Nothing in this movie is "Paranormal", minus 1 or 2 tiny things.

This is by far the worst thing I have ever seen. I don't mind low budget cheesy films, however this was worse than a high school film project. The only thing that may make anyone want to watch it, is it has some female nudity. Besides that, I can't think of a single reason to watch this.

Do not watch, you will be extremely upset if you waste your time on this. I guess there were no good things to mention after all...

As an aficionado of bad cinema, I have seen quite a few low budget horror films in my day. From made-for-TV monster movies to Zombie Cop (only ever found on VHS distributed by an unknown company), I have seen them all. I thought I had seen the worst of them. That is, until I managed to see Paranormal Haunting.

At no point in the movie does anything make sense. Characters are introduced only by name without any hint of what their role is in the movie or their motivation for being at the inn might possibly be. People come and go from the film seemingly at random, and any exposition that occurs may as well have come from any other random title pulled off a video store shelf...

The lighting is horrible, and the film's "dark and gritty" post processing makes it almost impossible to watch. Objects in the foreground are completely overexposed while objects in the background fade into a murky pool of video blackness.

Sound issues plague the production as a whole, and often times dialogue (as bad as it is) is made worse by the fact that only one of the two people speaking can be heard clearly.

The music is the only place where Curse of the Blue Moon Inn seems even vaguely passable. The soundtrack includes quite a few songs by some Irish folk/punk band, which work. However, the movie doesn't seem to know when to employ them properly. Scenes which appear to be going for a somber tone will use a jaunty Irish jig in the background, which just confuses the scene further. The score seems to be equally confused throughout, many times cramming string hits and "oooooOOoooh somethings gonna GETCHA!" moments at random and without thought.

As a whole, I have to say this movie is possibly one of the worst in existence, and should be shown at most every film school as a cautionary measure. Please kids, don't make films like this. For all of our sakes.

I have never seen a movie with such and awful story line. And such awful acting. It not scary even thou it is a horror movie. The ending is awful. It got gross at times. But it was never scary. The ending is awful. 2 is a bad ratting. But this is such a an awful movie that 2 it overrating it. This is a 1. It is total pooh pooh. It is a very very stinky movie. It is a movie that make pooh pooh look good. It so stinky the small of pooh pooh does not see so bad by comparison. This movie is very very stinky. It is the worst horror movie ever. Do not waste your time and money. Do not see this pile of pooh pooh stinks more then pooh pooh.
