    OMG Not another one

    Other than R.G Armstrong(who played "Franks" one of the Druids in Warlock: Armageddon - a cult fantasy movie from 93) you won't recognise a single person in this movie. Don't get me wrong i'm all for new talent but there's just no original appeal to this at all and it had the unfortunate added touch of reminding me of a Jim Wynorski flick, without the "is it or isn't it a porno" confusion of a first time rental victim.

    This isn't even a B-Movie its just a collection of Bad actors talking to each other in that annoying "i know there's a camera in the room" way and running around in the woods for no apparent reason. I don't believe i'm going to actually say this but the Director Tim Card could have actually made this movie better if he'd have shaken the camera a few times and done a close up of some girls nose in a tent...Blair witch was better than this and it was crap...Don't rent it, don't even look at it and yes....i'm a harsh critic, but only because so much crap gets released onto DVD/video these days.

    First Viewing

    I was able to see the movie "The Waking" at a cinema draft house in West Melbourne Florida about 8 months ago and I must say that it was very well done and I think that this film has the potential to become a cult classic. I cant wait to see it out in the box office.

    Not to level of say a public access movie......

    This piece of junk may have floated into the new release section of your local rental shop. BEWARE !!!! It is neither silly nor scary nor even cheseey. The movie is very much like the film "Coven" that the guys in American Movie were trying to get finished. Lots of smoke and many local actors featured in black capes and bad walmart halloween masks. Not bad if handled with a wink and a smile by the film maker. Problem here is that this piece of drek was done with a very heavy hand. Way too solem for it's own good. Do yourself a favor and avoid this movie at all cost. Do anything...read if you have too............ but stay away from this !!!

    2.5?!?!

    This movie is absolutely horrible. It was full of things that I thought made scooby doo look like Amityville. The cover is cool looking, and it did APPEAR to have a pretty good plot, so why not? I was so wrong. It was low budget CRAP!!!! I wasted my three dollars and my 2 hours, and I want them both back!!!!!! So a word of advice is to never rent this, buy this, nothing. I can't believe this film got a 2.5! That is amazing! I usually like horror movies, I've never really been too picky over them, but this one just really stunk, I'm not sure if my DVD player will ever be the same again, its scarred for life! If you're strolling through the movie store and see keeper of souls, run for the hills and don't look back!

    What a Waste

    This is, by far, one of the worst films I have ever seen in my life. It wasn't even worth the cost of DVD rental. There was absolutely NO plot as far as I could see and the entire thing looked like it was filmed by some kid with a camcorder. The inconsistencies in the film were so obvious, that it ceased being fun to look for them about 20 minutes into the film. The acting was terrible (and that's putting it kindly.) The special effects were obvious and very poorly done. The scare factor? The only scary thing about this film is that it was NOT actually something a kid with a camcorder did with a group of friends in his or her city as a means of passing the time on a boring day.

    Don't waste time on this.. there are so many other films out there to see..
