A Hard Place

An amazing movie I plan on sharing with many friends and family once released on DVD or a streaming platform.

Enjoyed the homestead feeling of the setting and the characters that called it home. The practical effects and special effects were an impressive combination. Loved each monsters costume and effects along with the transformations between the two.

Nice and gory, with a lot of fun humor thrown in. I feel like the only thing that would be holding it back is the acting in some scenes, but if you're someone who can look past that, you'll find it really fun and enjoyable. I hope to see more from this team in the future! Made an account just to rate this movie.

The independent film had a funny side to it. With a bit of personalized jokes many would find funny but only a handful would know the real meaning behind.

Ten out of ten would recommend!

I admit that sometimes I will search out a bad movie with the intention of finding a new guilty pleasure. I saw this on Tubi and it sounded odd enough to possibly be one. Boy was I wrong. This is just awful. From the bad country accents of the horrible actors, the laughable fake smoke from the guns, the awkward shots of the old fat guy who never speaks ( who also for some reason wears shoe polish under his eyes???), the stilted dialogue, it's just all around terrible. Attempts at random humor fall flat (the terribly delivered "what in the whatever state we're in chainsaw massacre" and "what in the horror movie" spoken by the same godawful actor), and the ill fitting wig of Lynn Lowry that looks like it's about to slide off at any second are just as awful. It's also a bad sign that the worst actor is the one who never speaks a line, just gives hilariously bad attempts at intimidating looks from his shoe polish streaked eyes. Even the usually dependable Felissa Rose is terrible in this. And what was with the weird sex education film that went on forever and was ultra cringeworthy? Were these friends of the writer/director? Just awkward and weird. The only positives are the creative lighting and some on the camerawork. Just please skip this and thank me later. PS: you want to know how the rating is so high on this? Click on the reviewer names and look at their rating history. Notice any patterns? Yeah, it's either their first review or they're all for projects they themselves are connected to.

I very rarely take time to review a movie. As the only other honest reviewer said, everyone in the cast must have rated this stinker 8+ I generally like a good B movie, or campy one..not this one. Sorry to be a downer.

Cinematography and location are good. The dialog & actors are cheesy. The premise is ok, just no one can salvage it.

Gory enough...if you can stomach the very poor dialogue. Watch the preview...if you like what you see, by all means, watch it..if not, time to move on to something with a bit more polish and class. This one just does not check many good boxes.

If it's meant to be bad, they succeeded...

A Hard Place is a fun Horror movie with real practical effects and flourishes of drama and comedy. The cast and crew did a great job delivering this indie film. Rachel Amanda Bryant for example did a fantastic job portraying a member of these criminal group who still had a moral compass. Fun twists and turns are in the narrative mixed with the action and horror elements.

The creature effects were good considering this is an indie film. It had some unique story elements as well. It was great to see Bai Ling in her role kicking but and delivering one liners. A hard place had a strong opening and closing as well.

I tend to be little more kind to indie stuff. Really I'd probably put it at 6 or 7 tops. But I know movies like this always end up getting hit by a bunch of unfair one's by incels.

Anyway, an, A Hard Place was wild. It's got monsters, action, and just enough heart to keep you locked in. The story pulls you in quick-some bad guys get caught up in something way bigger than them, and it goes off the rails in the best way. The acting was solid, the creatures looked awesome, and it didn't feel like some cheap movie. Honestly, I didn't know what to expect, but I had a blast watching it. Definitely worth checking out.
