The Golem

This one proved to be decently more successful than I had originally anticipated. It is most certainly a slow burn but more in the way of tension building than boring. I definitely feel as though there could have been a few more layers to the story. It has a thorough plot line but not all THAT much happened. Could have picked up the pace and given us a little more to work with as far as character development and plot goes.

I was particularly impressed with some of the shots and the quality. Every so often there was a still that I could have hung up on my wall. Very visually pleasing with really nice lighting. Also the acting was quite good all around. One thing that I found distracting was how put together a lot of the ladies looked. Make up and perfectly styled hair brought me out of the moment at times.

All in all this wasn't extraordinary but solidly entertaining with some really strong aspects. Would recommend.

Look we get it: the movie is slow. Though it's very unique, at least in my opinion and it seems to be super overlooked by impatient viewers. It's very stylized which you can take as you will, but pulls it off in a way that's not too over the top or anticlimactic. I feel like this movie was more a drama about dealing with your grief (albeit in a mystical way) rather than just a monster horror movie. There's not much to be said without spoiling a lot as the movie is a bit easy to figure out with a a few details.

The movie was a bit slow, but the acting was great, and the sets and cinematography were spot on. there was nothing new as far as horror tropes go, but i enjoyed watching!

I wouldn't call it a horror but it is a nice one

Its a bit of everything. But mostly drama I wouldn't spoil it but its worth to watch

I have mixed feeling about The Golem. I was up for watching a horror movie but I don't think you could categorize this movie as such. There are some gore moments but you never get that creepy tension while watching The Golem, a kid covered in mud isn't the most frightening thing to watch. The acting was okay, nothing award winning but nothing terrible either. The story is something new so that's a good point but it's also much too slow, too many moments where you just wait for something to happen and that is, if you're a bit tired, not good.
