HEY EVERYBODY ITS ME (4) and today we review .... texas the hills have nightmares part 17 ...the movie !!!!!
Well its that time again, to watch more of the usual horror films .... group of people , usually kids that are supposed ot be teens but look 35 .......lol.... go somewhere - a haunted warehouse/ amusement park/abandoned school/graveyard etc ....then uhoh dont cha know ...the guy that was thought to be only a legend shows up and kills people ..... yea the standard fair here as well .... now .... thats NOT to say rehashing the same ol song and dance cant be GOOD ......BUT when you do that it NEEDS to BE GOOD ....so lets break this one down shall we ..... please dont hate me ....i promise i mean well ....
the sound ....listen i say it SO much to indie directors/film makers ...sound is the life or death of your film ...FACT ......this sound was so bad at times i almost though that I made this movie lol.....if your going to make a film , invest in some lapel mics and hid them well ,and pick up some H1N recorders for about 100 bucks apiece per lapel mic , its a blessing trust me ..... and a boom mic if you can and use it if you can, some times booms are not possible with some shots sure ....and thats where the H1N and lapels make all the difference plus having that close up sound is gold ...........
lighting .... second key element to any indie film ....a dark film is great sure BUT if its too dark then people start to FREAK out thinking they went blind ....this is something i personally struggle with i ALWAYS film too dark ...ugh .... i hate it .... but man a little bit of extra light will make everything POP .....some back light BAM ...a little foreground POW ....perfect ....whats NOT perfect is NO LIGHTING !!!!!!!!!
Acting .....ac...ting .......act ......ing............mmmmmm.....
as far as location goes good job ... as far as over all goes , hey you made something so again good job, and the director has MANY films under his belt and i also say good job to him because he has made sequels to i think all of his films lol...and i feel driving to go watch this ones #2 AND theres a #3 coming as well now .... so i cant argue this guys passion and drive for sure ....
this films is rough yes .......and honestly i wont watch it again and it had many faults but this guy and his peeps are champs .....
4/10.
