Ghostland

Hi there horror lover,

when I saw the trailer a month ago, it gave me a vibe of old skool Taxes Chainsaw Massacre. I realy don't know why actually :) So last night is was into a horror flick and thought , why not give it a try. Couldn't wait for Hereditary to release hahaa. And I must say, I was surprised. In a positive way! It is not mainstream and there is drama in it. As well as the twist, which reveals halfway. It's kinda phsycho and disturbed. I think I can catagorise it in the genre like Green Room or Split, which I loved of it's original. There a some minor plotholes, and the ending..... could have been better taken care off, but nevertheless.....above average. Njoy the disturbance :D 7 out of 10

Not exactly scary, but 'Ghostland' certainly does reach some dark levels to produce a creepy and uncomfortable horror film.

It starts off pretty cliché but it quickly finds its own footing. I enjoy the way the storyline is portrayed, it never gets predictable which is always a positive in this genre. Most of the scares are the cheap, cop-out type, which stops the film being frightening. However, it makes up for it by creating tense, uneasy scenarios for the characters.

Crystal Reed and Emilia Jones produce what's necessary in the lead role of Beth, those two do rather carry proceedings but the other members of the (small) cast aren't a hindrance in any way; the premise focuses on Beth, so you'd expect Reed and Jones to stand out most.

I was locked in for it all, despite the fact I would've liked improved scare elements as opposed to average jump scares. Still, definitely worth watching.

I don't think i have ever written a review here but i just had to write one for this movie. I have watched a huge amount of horrors and this movie is not just a movie with 3 jump-scares and call it a day. This movie had me on a small amount of fear for at least the last 70%. But the weird way that the horror element is brought here is just so disturbing that it completely sucked me up emotionally and physically. Very good acting, great twist in the story and just actually a great horror!

(i never wrote a review so i probably suck at this lol but i hope u understand.)

I have never heard anyone speak about this movie, and I was pleasantly surprised. Beth and Vera are two sisters live with their mother and at the start of the film are moving into their late aunts home, stereotypically full of horrible dolls and puzzle mirrors. Beth is a young aspiring horror writer and Vera is her typical teenage older sister, who thinks Beth is weird. An incident occurs where 2 people get into the house and attempt to kidnap the two girls and kill their mother, but the story has lots of plot twists surrounding what actually happened. The film is actually impressively made, the jump scares were executed well and I am honestly shocked that I have never heard about this film, as I would recommend it for any horror fans.

From the director who brought Martyrs, this one is kind of different take in mixing horror into pysychological drama. That's why I think movie is interesting. Ghostland had the intense drama and eerie moments. I know that this is not as brutal as Martyrs had before but it is also bring back cringey moments. The plot keeps me guessing because of bringing back the past into present events. That's my main concern but I love the whole acting and cinematography had the creepy feeling into it. 7/10 for making me love psychological horror.
