A cursed sky dive? Seriously?...
I stumbled upon the 2022 horror movie "Hex" by random chance. I must admit that I liked the movie's cover/poster, as it looked interesting. But I had never heard about "Hex" prior to watching it, so I didn't know what I was in for, aside from the short synopsis given.
But as it was a horror movie that I hadn't already seen, of course I opted to sit down and watch directors Chris Johnston and Andy Malchiodi's movie "Hex".
And seriously, what were the film makers thinking here? Has the creative Hollywood spring run so dry that we are now at a point where a sky dive can be cursed and serve as a focal point for a horror movie? It would turn out so. And writer Hans Rodionoff delivered one of the most laughably bad and downright ridiculous plots for a script that I have ever stumbled upon. I mean, a cursed sky dive move? Seriously? It was ludicrous, and not even bad in a way where it becomes funny and cheesy to watch. No, this was just depressingly sad and ridiculous.
I wasn't familiar with the cast in "Hex", and I am sure that there were some fair enough talents among the actors and actresses that starred in this movie, but they virtually had nothing to work with from writer Hans Rodionoff.
Visually then I am sure that there are some audience members that will get a kick out of this movie, as there is an extensive amount of sky diving footage. Personally, I don't find any fascination about sky diving, as I think it is just stupid to get up in an airplane, strap on a parachute and jump out of the airplane. But hey, all a matter of taste and preference. So yeah, there was little enjoyment to be had here.
"Hex" is without a doubt one of the dumbest movies I have stumbled upon. And the movie doesn't get better the longer you stick with it. So take my advice here and don't waste your time, money or effort on this dumpster fire of a movie. Some of us wasted 88 minutes of our lives on this movie so you don't have to.
The best thing about "Hex" was its cover/poster, and it is over-selling the movie by a landslide.
My rating of "Hex" lands on a one out of ten stars.
