The Shed

It makes me sad to give this a 4* because we don't get enough original content today...however there was just nothing special about this... you'd think a monster in a shed that can't come out would be a lot of fun, but it feels like the filmmaker didn't know what to do with this good idea....so it ends up being EXACTLY what you'd assume... all the jerks and baddies get sent to the shed one way or another...and...that's it really. It felt like it so badly wanted to be a horror comedy, but there goes there, it is played very straight.

Didn't hate it, but I did find myself skipping around, it went with a few of the "scary dream" scenes and I just find those so annoying.

It started off ok but half way through took a wrong turn and never got back on track .some of the dialogue is laughable but not in an intended way . Summary first half showed promise second half predictable and often painful

Well you know it's no good with a title like that and a rating of 15. I'm sure it's very scary if you have a Shed in the middle of nowhere and you are a kid that's not supposed to be watching it. It's a well made student movie. I'm sure they all graduated. Shows you most of the Horror techniques and overuses the Dream Sequence. Normal boring plotlines. In fact I dare say it's all been done before and better but what you going to do? It's not that bad..lol..

This one screened at some cool film festivals and had some cool people involved so my expectations were a little high but I was not entirely disapointed with the film. Some of it felt amateuish but other parts were quite interesting. I liked the kinda fresh take on vampire movies but felt that the bullying themes were a little on the nose and annoying.

I believe this must be the first feature for this writer and director so they will continue to grow and learn and get better from this. The lead actor was great and they scored with him, he is from Death Note. The script is slow at times, very cliche and not really current with 2019 and how teenagers act. More like teenagers in the 1990s or 80s. Things are different now. If they had based the story in the 90s that would have worked better. I thought the makeup in the climax scene was very cool.
