Death Cast

Starts Off Bad, But Wait, it Gets Worse... 1 Star. I would give 0 Stars, but the rating system won't allow it.

By far the worst movie I've ever watched in my life If you want to waste your time, and I mean waste it to the point that there is not a single net benefit, this is your movie.

Insanely terrible. That was an hour and seventeen minutes of visual torture. I can't believe I actually put myself through that.

Anyone know how to punch a movie in the face?

I tried screaming at the screen. I tried hitting my computer monitor with a broom. I even set my desk on fire. Sadly, nothing seemed to penetrate the incompetency presented here.

Cut your losses early on this one. There is no pleasant topless scene, no memorable kill, no plot swerves, and no twist ending.

This film begins with 6 young actors auditioning for a part in an upcoming movie. Upon being accepted for their respective roles they are all given scripts to rehearse on their own. A couple of weeks later they are all driven to a secluded house in the woods where filming will start. However, unlike other movies, they are all informed that there will be nobody filming them at the site. Instead, the director has chosen to place remote-controlled cameras inside the house along with cameras mounted on drones for any filming outside. So, once they are dropped off at the house, they are the only people there. What they don't realize, however, is that the picture they are making is a "snuff film" and that all but one of them will be murdered. Now, rather than reveal any more, I will just say that this was an interesting film for the most part which suffered somewhat from an abrupt and disappointing ending. Likewise, being a low-budget production, it experienced the usual problems associated with films of this type, such as a weak script and uneven acting. It did, however, have a couple of attractive actresses with Danielle Stratton (as "Stefanie") probably standing out the most. In any case, while this may not have been a bad film necessarily, it certainly could have been better in several respects and I have rated it accordingly. Slightly below average.

You know for the most part it could have been a half decent budget horror picture to waste an hour and a half on on a rainy weekend. A group of young actors and actresses take a part in a horror movie and are shipped out to the country for your typical young kid out in the woods horror type activities. And then things start getting real. Ok, been there done that before but its at least holding my attention. The actors./actresses aren't really bad but its clear that any talents they have are being wasted by a lack of a real script. Nothing unique happens for about an hour... and then it just ends. No questions answered, no reveal, it just ends. I assume that the director thinks its artistic ending the movie like this but IMO its just lazy. There's really no reason to watch this.

There's killings and blood but no real gore. An attractive cast but no nudity.

Bad acting, badly written characters. Weak as a slasher movie, simple kills with minimal makeup effects dispatched by unmenacing killers. The house in the middle of nowhere is the kind of horror movie cliché The Cabin in the Woods (2011) made fun of. A potentially interesting concept becomes dubious, potential wasted.

The story is a movie within a movie. The main characters are actors who play parts in a horror movie. Little did they know that the producers would make the horror real. One trick I did like: The movie starts out full screen, then when the actors are playing the characters in the horror movie, the screen goes letterboxed. Then when the first actor gets killed for real and the other actors realize they're in real jeopardy, the screen goes back to full screen. Neat visual trick to separate the inner movie from the outer one, the actors playing characters from them behaving in their real lives.

This is a twist on found footage, where the producers are purposely making a movie about killing off the actors in a movie. But the actors aren't in on the gag, so it's kind of reality television with deadly consequences.

The concept has potential, but the story doesn't pan out. Maybe with better writing and acting, this could have been something. Hopefully this is a stepping stone to the writer/director producing something better next time.
