Necrosis

i watched this lick last night and slept somewhere around 3A.M..and after watching this SO CALLED movie i cursed myself like anything. Why did I watch it..it was one of the worst flicks I have ever seen in my life...No storyline, No acting skills, no directional,,,and the worst was the background music..it sounded like some BABy channel program... Anyway,,I warn everyone to give this flick a big ignore and Please do not watch the trailer as It is really deceiving....It is a total waste for sure and a really bad effort (if there was any)... I would recommend viewers to watch Tom & Jerry classic cartoons instead of this flick. The Chinese guy in this flick was a little better than the rest... A BIG DISASTER...

Just read other reviews and decided to watch the movie on reviews alone,not a good idea these reviewers must have watched a different film. The film i just watched was called NECROSIS and it was the worst film i have ever watched in my life,what a waste of an hour and thirteen minuets.The acting was terrible about as scary as an episode of the lone ranger no blood in the snow,amateurish very low budget Tripe Do yourself a favour and leave this well alone.As for the above reviewers go and watch the lone ranger it mite scare the pants off you also.The only good thing was the setting i liked the cabin and the snow it probably belongs to one of the producers i would like to spend a holiday there but after this review i do not think the producer would let me o well never mind straight to DVD,rent it and be very scared ha ha ha

Where to start, well I guess right from the hop... Within the first 20 seconds of the film its very obvious that there is not a spot of talent among these actors... The "blood and gore scenes" make you turn your head to look at the person beside you just to see if they are laughing along with you. I truly hope to never again see any of these actors on my television screen again, not even for a GEICO commercial. Its about an hour and a half of my life that I will never get back.

This is not a typical B rated film, its worse. The directing, producing, and writing of this film was just plain pathetic, do yourself a favor and pass on this one! You won't regret it!

A group of friends head to the mountains for some wintry R&R but their chosen locale shares a bit of history with The Donner Party legend and from there it's pretty easy to see that there won't be a lot of rest or relaxation for anyone involved.

All the pieces are in place: A great legend to jump off from, secluded location, foreboding locals, elements of the supernatural, paranoia and a mix of characters at various stages in their lives ensuring potential conflict. While Necrosis incorporates all of those elements, unfortunately it doesn't succeed with any of them. Well, the location is nice and there are a handful of shots that reflect this.

As with most low-budget indie flicks, the technical shortcomings are plentiful; edits are either too choppy or linger unnecessarily and the sound too often feels looped. However, these faults could easily be forgiven were any other intended aspects accomplished. The films greatest failure is in its soulless facade. The dialogue is flat and stock and the actors do little to breathe any life into it. Not that they've much to work with at all but seriously, there are some professionals here turning out low-rent work. There are moments where you can almost see their thought process; ACTOR: "Recite dialogue, drink from cup, pause, frown, hit mark, speak again". There is nothing organic going on here and that is the most glaring issue of which there are many.

The female cast come out slightly ahead, not that it is saying much, but at least during the more intimate and dramatic moments Pop Star Tiffany (in her film debut), budding Scream Queen Penny Drake and to a lesser degree Danielle DeLuca come close to conveying genuine emotion. Funny (or is it sad?) when you realize their male counterparts are the more seasoned acting professionals. This includes wasted cameos from genre vets Michael Berryman and Mickey Jones.

In early interviews, director Jason Stephens tagged the formula for his film as "The Big Chill meets The Shining." This is somewhat telling of his approach because after watching Necrosis, one cannot help but wonder if Stephens has actually seen either film. Ultimately, Necrosis screams amateur from start to finish and it is unfortunate because there were mounds of potential to mine from.

The first few scenes of the movie made me expect something really gross, like cannibalism and lots of gore. In fact, this movie has no gore at all - except for a few gunshot wounds which are so inconsistent that they made me laugh instead of making me say; "Ouch, that's got to hurt!" All right, if it has no gore, at least i expect some good plot and at least a 3/5 score acting. A real shame, because none of these objectives were met; the plot is shallow with some flashes of brilliancy now and then (psychological terror) but truth be told - i wasn't impressed. Not even scared. The other weak points are the actors - really, that kind of bad acting was not seen since... well... i have never seen it - or maybe i have (one movie comes to my mind but i won't tell the name, let's just say THAT movie takes place in 2012).

Unfortunately, i don't have anything positive to say about this movie, except the ending which is not expected, and that makes it somewhat brilliant.

Do not waste your precious time with this title, those few strong points (i am being generous) are not worth wasting 1 hour and 13 minutes, that's how long this charade lasts.
