The 13th Sign

Yes, this movie make me feel real horror, when i realized that i paid for it and spent more than 1 hour of my life trying to watch it. The bald guy just give me the impression of being a psycho - Junkie actor and the girl is the worst actress i ever seen . Believe me if you appreciate your time avoid this movie, i understand a movie requires money to be created and some movies do not have that money but that is no justification for a stupid plot and bad acting. I'm always supporting independent movies, when it deserves the support, but movies like this makes a bad name for this kind of movies. I'm still traumatized. I will not trust in any nice cover anymore.

Not only being in the horror genre I am also a big fan of old school goth. Due both reasons I picked up this movie. Carl McCoy from Fields Of The Nephilim was involved in this movie. First of all, he was the voice of the evil spirit, second, a song from the Fields appeared on the credits, Darkcell. Carl once played an important role in Hardware which was a good movie but here it's back to square one. The story itself is okay but the movie is a bit boring. Cheap effects are used to cover the low budget. It never becomes frightening or scary and it fails in so many ways. There's a lot of talking and weird things going on, like the special hand, Mad Max style. A shame that this project wasn't worked out better, it would have given us a better 'sign'.

It's true. If you want to see how NOT to write, direct, shoot, act and produce then this is the film for you! If you do accidently buy under the false pretense that the 'film makers' actually cared about what they wanted to make, then at least you can use the DVD as a frisbee or coaster possibly.

Perhaps, just perhaps, this film was actually meant to be this bad and it's all part of an elaborate practical joke. Or, perhaps not.

I wrote a review of this movie further down after buying it on DVD and being sorely disapointed.

I tried watching it again after reading a few of the comments made since then. Being a film student and making similar budgeted movies myself (ie no budget, shot on digi cam), I stand by my original comments. This is a no budget student project (and not a particularly good one), released on video/dvd to look like an award winning film (if you read the cover). So deceving the public into thinking it's something it's not. I want my money back under the trades description act! Complete Rubbish!

I bought this while I was playing chess in Hastings. I am from Denmark though. It is very good. Definitely with an understanding of the horror genre. The monster towards the end is very scary. People who criticize this on IMDb should recall that it was a huge success among serious horror critics. Anyway, I really love horror movies and this one is good fun. Especially jump-scares tend to be interesting in horror movies. It seems a show like Fear Factor is more disgusting than scary but this movie really is scary and I like that in horror. It is made on a low budget for sure but still a very powerful movie. I am really a dedicated horror fan and I like imagination in movies. Horror seems to be very imaginative. Horror today seems a bit boring but it has been an important genre for a long time.
