The Waking

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.

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 !!!

I am capable of enjoying most movies; especially when it comes to horror movies. Most movies have either a cute cheesiness, some hot chick, or they might have good (or decent!) and gory make-up. (Come on! That's why you watch these movies!) This movie has nothing. OK, a half-naked girl in the opening sequence, but that's about it. The music is awful, to call the acting crappy is to be kind, and the plot is not even interesting. The special effects are almost absent. There is one action sequence, but we don't get to see much. Even the sound and picture quality reminds one of home-made movies with a handy-cam... made when you were 15! The main characters (played by a pretty chick and the director, a ... er ... not-so-good looking fat bastard) are supposed to be a couple, although it looked rather incestuous: The guy might have been the girl's father, with his big belly, mustache and age. I was cringing in my sofa when I saw them kiss.

I am not going to spend more time dissing this movie. Bad movies can be interesting, but this one isn't at all.

Just forget it.

This movie is so bad; it's so unbelievable horrid that one can not concept its quality without actually viewing it. Actually, that one reason is the only reason anyone should ever watch it, so they can understand how bad it is, and also as proof never to hire Tim Card as a director. I really never hate movies; however, this is beyond bad there is no word to describe how terrible this film is. It's not even a film of standard, I was upset to give it a one star because there are a few Sean Penn films that are not shy away from 3 stars and guess what they are WAYYY better than this foolish production. OK, let's just put it this way... My friend got a free copy of the "The Keeper of the Souls" because the director/producer/everyone left free copies at Foxwoods casino for employees to screen. My friend and I watched it together... Now, to this day, he uses the DVD to kill moths when they get in his bedroom. Yea it's that horrid.

P.S. by the way, when he can't find the DVD he uses a deltron 3030 CD.

Watched this twice, to make sure it was as bad as I thought. It was. I believe I could do as well with about 5 fog machines, a working vehicle, a 400 dollar camera, and about 8 neighbors. (drunk or sober) It is just to bad to even leave a review on how horrible it was. They couldn't even kill noise that the fog machines made, to make the house look creepy. CHEEEEZE CAPITOL!
