The Bride

It has a great premise and mostly decent actors but either the actress playing it or the role of the heroine was written or played so bad that by the end you're just rooting for them to get rid of her. She only has one expression and it wasn't the horror the situation called for, just some slack jawed expressionless blank gaze mostly. You expect that even a child would've caught on but not this chick. She couldn't get a clue if she was playing the game.

The other characters were fine and the movie was pretty good. Everyone else played their role just fine. The heroine never really gets her crap together.

This film gets only 2 stars its so cheesy and feels it rips of every haunted house/ ghost story imaginable.The story takes place in Russia apparently but even that feels unbelievable and tried to make it as American as possible. I think it was the makers dream to make a really cheesy American horror and they succeeded very well. Victoria agalakova the main actress is so hot though that's why i gave it a extra star.

Despite having already married, a young bride is taken to the home of her husband for a ceremony with his family. A dark ceremony that may take her life.

I actually watched this a while back and really enjoyed it but the subtitles I had were choppy. I didn't want to review it until had watched it with better subtitles and having just finished it up for the 2nd time, I still like it.

I love bridal horror. Love can cause you to do crazy things and when you really consider it, there are a lot of ways it can be twisted into horror. The story is the best part of this film but it needs a little something. That something is detail. The underlying story is vague in my opinion. You can understand what is going on but there isn't much to help the viewer invest in the characters. It's creepy and there are moments that made me think of "The Woman In Black".

I liked the film but it really does need a bit of work. With a bit more attention this could be awesome.

Wow, quite wonderful, actually. The film was really creepy, not just because of what happens, but also because of the premise. The contrast between the old and new in a modern world is great, adding to the creepiness. This is the story of a family curse and an innocent bride that could break the curse, wonderfully acted by Victoria Agalakova. Her husband, Ivan (Victor) is not really a strong character and it seems the film does just great without him. Bride Nastya (Victoria) is the star and hero of the film. The visual effects and make-up are very good and quite scary, too. This is a classic 80s style horror.

Sigh. Where to begin. We know one thing for sure - the director and producers of "The Bride" has seen "The Exorcist," "The Omen," "The Conjuring," and every other horror film in the world because they applied every trick they learned over the years into their "masterpiece." To say this film is full of cliches is like saying the Vatican is full of holy people.

I guess I hate to admit it but maybe, just maybe, there are no more horror stories to tell, at least nothing original anyway. From here on and forthwith we will be inundated with nothing more than the same ol' same ol' day after day, week after week, month after month, and year after year. The die is cast; film makers in the horror genre have reached an impasse. From here on out we'll probably have more unoriginal offerings like "The Bride." At least the cinematography was pleasing to the eyes, so there's that.
