This is clearly super low budget, but you get the send that it's made with a lot of heart and passion from everyone involved, it oozes from this movie.
It's fun, it doesn't take itself too seriously, and it's a cool concept. If you're a fan or The Store by Bentley Little, this is as close as I've seen to something like that in a movie. This definitely felt more like the kind of weird horror fiction I read.
There are questions in the plot, the acting doesn't always land, and I'd have preferred better costuming for the supernatural stuff, but... None of that kills this. Even when the acting doesn't hit, I feel such an earnest care from the actors that I don't care.
A lot of people demand perfection from small movies, a perfection people didnt even expext from bigger studio movies in decades past. Everything has to be a sleek package these days. I say no, a flawed movie can still be a good movie, and what I see here is passion and a lot of potential, and that is worth supporting.
I'm pretty sure this is my first review. I've had this account for years, but the negativity here inspired me to speak up.
If you want to have some spooky fun, watch this movie and chill out.

There were aspects of this film that were annoying and did not make sense, but it came together to be a pretty damned good horror story!
The ending explains absolutely NOTHING about the origin of the situation and the root causes of the evil force at play here are left undetermined right up to the credits rolling, but it still was an exciting wrap up.
The acting was quite good with the main character have a very irritating personality, but that was a flaw in the writing and not the acting.
By the last ten minutes you have your concept of who is the good guy and who is the bad guy totally upended which was an unexpected twist, but it contributed to the fairly good conclusion.
The pieces did not fit together seamlessly by any means, but they did bring the film to a satisfying end.

I'm not 100% sure what I was expecting, but from the trailer, it looked like a 'decent' indie flick.
The first 15 minutes or so, are OK...but the constant look of dread, pain...and worry on the lead's face, quickly becomes annoying. I mean it's CONSTANT...in every scene he's in. I'm not sure if this was the plan, but if it was, this really spoils the film.
Besides all that weirdness, the supporting actors are awful. Not a single one shone...even in their own light. To be honest, even the lead wasn't that great. He didn't really stand out as a lead.
The cinematography is good though, but the sound is awful...especially in some of the office scenes...the sound is awful. It sounds like the boom mic is miles away from the actors.
Story was abysmal and almost non-sensical.
Just not a great movie in any way, shape, or form.

We liked this a LOT! This was totally a new kind of thing. We found the main character so endearing. This guy was totally sweet and afraid of failure and it was really well acted. Then, he gets the chance to step up and be the hero! He also, seemingly, gets the girl.
So, if you're not sure, go ahead and check it out. I mean, it's free right now on Tubi. So whaddaya got to lose?
We thought it was totally worth the good rating. It's kinda tongue-in-cheek and it doesn't take itself too seriously.
So, there you have it. Our two cents on a really good little movie.
Don't listen to the haters and just give it a shot. Hollyweird is putting out leftist trash anyways. This has none of that crap.

Stumbling upon the 2021 horror movie "Human Resources" here in 2023, and never having heard about it, of course I opted to sit down and give the movie a watch.
The storyline in the movie, as written by Branden Swope and Evan Swope, was a bit weird. Now, let me just say that the movie started out okay, but it quickly became somewhat stale as there wasn't a whole lot happening throughout the course of the movie. And when the final reveal of what was going on took place on the screen, you simply have sat through too much nonsense, so it was a little bit too little and too late.
I wasn't familiar with the cast ensemble in the movie, but the cast did good jobs with their roles and characters. Just a shame that they didn't have a more entertaining, enjoyable and thoroughly written storyline to work with.
Visually then you're not in for anything grand. There are virtually no special effects in the movie, and it "Human Resources" have had that at least, then it would have been a more durable movie to sit through.
For a horror movie then "Human Resources" was disappointing. Sure, I managed to sit through all 108 minutes of director Braden Swope's movie, but I was only slightly entertained by the movie as a whole. And if you are an avid fan of horror movies, then I wouldn't really recommend you spend your time, money or effort on this 2021 movie.
My rating of "Human Resources" lands on a four out of ten stars.
