Ano Novo, Morte Nova

I'd avoid this movie like the plague. There are a few things that are good but mostly this film is horrible, no pun intended. This movie lacks in plot all that's there is people go diappearing and it feels like the town is covering up and then we are introduced to a group of adults who are going to this town but not staying in the town but staying in a cabin in the middle of the woods. I will now go over what this film succeeds at and fails at. This movie succeeds in some gore effects thats it. The film fails at a multitude of things. The cinematography truly sucks and is a huge drawback. The charactars are weak and no strong acting is provided by the actors. This film also falls into a multitude of horror tropes that are way too overdone in this film and others. The film also fails in it's plot, the atmosphere is surprisingly weak and the tone is lackluster. This film isn't so bad it's good its just bad. I found myself not caring most of the picture and almost falling asleep. If the pacing was good I might have been more interested but the pacing also sucks. There's a reason this film is straight to DVD. Oh god save me from the hour and a half i lost of my life. Please don't watch this i have a written a multitiude of reviews of other films that are better than this that you should watch instead.

Simply a nice slasher movie, with great effects and much efford. The camera is sometimes abit unsteady, but all in all great Movie. The acting was okay, alot of Boobs and gore. The story sometimes misses some Details, but the good gore and blood is what we're watching it for. Definitely gonna watch it again. Family loved it.

A group of friends gather for a new years eve celebration and are attacked by a mask clad psycho with insidious intentions. This surprisingly polished production, I'm sure was taken quite seriously when it was made. Especially by a plastered out Richard Grieco who plays the town sheriff. There's no real original thought here it's pretty basic and by the numbers. But the addition of unnecessary subplots and a lack of suspense or effective kills make things even worse. Despite some cool cover art and a screenplay that would have been better off it had stuck to the basics this film is a complete waste of energy.

*.5/5

PLOT WAS OK COULD HAVE BEEN EXECUTED BETTER. BUT THE GIRLS WERE GOOD TO LOOK AT. EPESLY HEATHER PAIGE COHAN GUYS SHOULD GIVE THE FLIK A LOOK FOR HER ALONE.

It's unfathomable that, in this day and age, tripe like "Minutes to Midnight" would get the greenlight from any studio. The film is rife with nothing but cliches. To wit:

Law enforcement officers who don't wear uniforms but, instead, pull their guns on innocent people in the street.

A deep, rarely discovered forest that lies within walking distance of a small town full of millenial yuppies.

Speaking of millenials, they're all typically clueless, but goodlooking, in this movie.

Don't waste your time with this. Watch this only to see what garbage is being thrown direct to DVD these days.
