The Secret Village

This movie is all over the place. The first thing I noticed was the bad background music; sounding as if it were composed and played by a 12 yr. old. The scenes jump back and forth which I contribute to poor, poor editing and direction.

There are people popping up here and there with no real background story to go on except it's a scary village and they keep to themselves. Oooooooooooh.

Big deal.

15 minutes into the movie you're thinking "who cares" and you're ready to exit out of it and move on to something actually good.

I have to agree with the other reviews out there, this movie is awful. Bad acting, there is no real storyline (except some weirdly dressed people from the town running around trying to look like witches or magicians or just ugly faces (lol). Although I think the worst of it is the acting. Really, the acting tops it all, some of the worst that I've seen in quite some time and I saw a lot of horror movies already. Anyway I say don't watch it, it's a waste of time and if you made the mistake of buying the DVD or Bluray like I did, it's also a waste of money.

I think the idea for it is not that bad but the realization of it, well...that sadly went in the wrong direction ;)

I have seen some bad movies, but this one is right up there at the top.

If you could sit through this, there isn't anything in the world that you cannot achieve.

Fails miserably in every aspect there is to making a movie.

Horrible plot, horrible acting, horrible direction, horrible background score........

I mean there isn't anything remotely good about this movie.

Tie a cam around a cat and it would get you some interesting footage.

Absolute waste of time.

Want to punish someone? Recommend this movie to them.

For those expecting a horror film, this is strictly G-Rated, Nancy Drew stuff with an ending that leaves lots of loose ends. Safe for the kids, though -- absolutely no language, violence, sex, nudity. But playing this for the kids will be worse for them than a time-out. Again, beware of films with an N/A -- that means it was never submitted to the MPAA, which means it went straight to video. Absolute garbage and it's super-low IMDb ranking is well-deserved. Trust me, any good reviews this crud receives was written by someone from the cast, production crew or adoring relatives. Points to anyone who can figure out the plot, which appears to have been made up as the filmmakers went along. You have been warned!

This film lost me 90 minute of my life I can't get back, so I feel the feel the need to warn others. The secret village is one of the worst films I have seen and unfortunately i have seen a lot, but this is one of the films that has prompted me to join IMDb and write a review. 1.The acting is awful the male and female lead in particular were bad 2.The editing was all over the place, couldn't follow the story due to that fact 3. Horrible annoying soundtrack that tries desperately to add suspense too this poor excuse of a film. 4. Cheap make up and costume obliviously bought from fancy dress shop. The director who adds his name to the cover and title of this film and as if he Is so proud should have hidden it at the back in very small lettering, especially if ever wants to direct again. He obviously fancies himself as a M Night type director due too the weak twist at the end but this he is not, $2 million was spent on this and when watching the credits at the end I saw that executive producer was someone with the same surname so obviously a rich relative indulged the writer director with the money to make this mess if a film. Note too that relative please don't indulge him any more spend your money on something more worthwhile. Don't watch this movie and destroy any copies you may see to stop other experiencing what I did.
