Head Count

I don't understand so many negative reviews I can only assume..................... They were seeking the typical..... Bobbleheads running around naked.... and pointless sex scenes... if that's what you want.... don't watch .. Otherwise I thought this was a pretty good thriller....

Did the filmmakers tick somebody off or something? It makes no sense that this movie has such a low rating, and several dismissive user reviews. (No, I am NOT affiliated with the film.) It's very well-crafted and genuinely unpredictable. Are horror fans so boring in their expectations that they actually resent a movie that doesn't provide the usual routine "kills," or gore? This movie has what most don't: An original narrative. I didn't love the ending, but up to that point was fascinated. It's not that "scary," but it's INTERESTING, and how often can you say that about a new horror movie? Most such are "spoiler-proof," in that the plots are so predictable it really doesn't matter if someone spills the beans or not. But with this film, I wouldn't tell anyone what happens after the twenty-minute point, because it's actually surprising. If you need severed limbs or something, I guess this movie isn't for you, but I found it imaginative and impressive.

I really enjoyed this, I was expecting it to be the usual run of the mill, colourless horror, but it wasn't. More in the horror/thriller genre, this delivered some unexpected shocks, and moments of real subtlety. It does have some of the usual horror cliches, some loud shocks and obvious scares, but what it does so well is deliver some very unexpected moments, ones you need to watch closely for.

Well made, very well produced, I thought they made the best use the budget, clever use of lightning, and very well acted.

All in all, very satisfying. 8/10

If you're expecting big scares and big budget you came to the wrong place. But it's still pretty good. I enjoy a good horror indie. Most of them suck but this one was done right for what they had to use.

Unique concept and summoning ritual. Def had some good creepy moments. It's a slow burn for sure which some can't stand, but I personally like that kind of stuff if it's worth it. Acting was good. Visually good too.

Ending could have been slightly better but overall an enjoyable watch. Congrats to the filmmakers on this one.

This movie in the beginning had me very angry at the few reviews I read stating it was horrible and regrettable to watch. The pace moves along nicely and the storyline is up to par with acting that holds together well enough to keep you engaged throughout the film. Sound effects and music were well placed and the jump scares came at surprising moments so they never felt cheesy or fabricated. The videography was well crafted albeit a few angles were off kilter like the beginning of the jacuzzi scene or when they returned to the rocks on the 2nd day. But this movie was going in the right direction and it had a pretty unique twist, Unfortunately when creating something new if the writers are not focused enough to intricately peace together every little detail so that the ending makes sense while maintaining the mystery it all just falls apart in the last scene which will frustrate anyone after 90 minutes and this flick is a prime example of that. So close but no cigar for this one.
