Provoked

What's the best way to get a spirit to contact you? Make it angry!

What a joke of characters this movie was. So much was pointless and contributed nothing. Like introducing us to the cast of the tv show in depth. Giving them slight character development and back story. Showing the rival ghost hunter show. None of this mattered as 25 min after the minus starts we don't see any of them again except for 1 guy.

It made no sense that the lead guy, the one who really wanted to catch a ghost, didn't believe any of the paranormal activity that was happening in his own home. Every stupid decision that could be made, he made it.

I won't even comment on the bad cinematography, acting, music, or setting. But I will say this: directors: stop thinking 80s sci-fi sounds and bgm are cool. They. Are. Not!

"Provoked" is a film that I have followed from the beginning so I am thrilled to finally get to see the film completed. It follows a group of paranormal researchers following the path of their favorite TV paranormal team, M.A.P.S. On one assignment unfortunately one of the investigators brings something home that proves fatal. "Provoked" is the first feature film of Jordan Pacheco and stars Tony Moran, Christopher P. O'Reilly, Nicole Lasala, Dan Liebman, Jami Tennille, Sean Carmichael, Kati Salowsky, Camille Farnan, Michaelah Noelle Nunes, Charles Everett Tacker and Jeanne Lohnes .

The story explored in "Provoked" is very tradition and doesn't stray far from paranormal lore which isn't necessarily a bad thing, but it trapped the film in a "sleeper" mode for a great deal of the film. The acting and character depths in the film were believable and strong enough but the actual interactions and honest ability to connect on screen fell a bit flat at times. That being said "Provoked" does draw you into the story and offers a serious, chilling atmosphere that screams "haunting". And that "sleeper" feel of the first part of the film does more to disarm you just enough for the thrilling height of action, which throws, claws, and drags you right to the exciting, and intense climax-and man is it thrilling. This is a story that builds calmly, steadily right up until all Hell breaks loose.

"Provoked" uses some pretty standard effects to bring the paranormal aspects to life in the film, they are mild for the most part and a little too expected. That doesn't really hurt the over all production of "Provoked", I merely mention it so that fans of this subgenre who may be seeking big amounts of falderal will be prepared when viewing this movie. Now the real joy for horror, and effects fans comes at the last third of this film-right along with the excitement and chills. There are some pretty creepy and thrilling moments. And I love an ending that isn't all "Hallmarky". The film is definitely worth seeing because it holds to the more mature, classic love of the genre, with a steady paranormal story, and a very modern nightmare ending. I feel "Provoked" will please any paranormal fan.

Big enough to fly a commercial airliner thru....... WHY Matt the ghost man demanded ghostly signs and then IGNORED ALL THE SIGNS CLEARLY EXHIBITING AROUND HIM!!! Was irritating!!!that's it! Most massive plot hole i have EVER witnessed, EVER. And that, along with the awful plot, bad acting (oh,the girlfriend's acting was PAINFULLY terrible!!) horrid character development (or lack thereof, because we never see them again!) made this an abomination for the ages!!! This was boring, not scary, slow, and just generally a dumb movie. A complete turd sandwich of a film.it's too late for me,i can't unsee this,but you can save yourself!!

Beats me how this film was ever released,it seems the storyline is made up as it goes along,the worst acting ever and the sound quality coming from a cheap camcorder.

Clearly things are bad when you have fake reviews written about this film. Truth is this film is terrible. I would nearly says watch it for some of the most hilarious bad acting ever seen, its not the fact its that bad, nut they seem to be playing it seriously. The director has obviously never filmed more than a family holiday, as the camera work is terrible, angles that are terribly framed, and then sound than changes from cut to cut. Overall, this film is a complete train wreck, watch it so long as you don't have to pay for it, cause it hilarious how wooden and bad the acting is.

Put it this way, I actually for the first time ever came here after a decade of not using my account, reset my password, so I could write all of this, yea, that's how bad it is.
