Film d'horreur sans titre

With the tag line "You'll die laughing" and the movie labelled as a horror-comedy, you would think that I would have laughed, even once. I mean, maybe that's the point, if you laugh you die? So the movie goes out of its way not to make you laugh? Not sure. If you're thinking maybe it's just me, ask yourself just how funny the title "Untitled Horror Movie" is, and then ask yourself how funny the producers, or whoever, thought the movie title would be.

Essentially, a group of actors find out their tv show is being cancelled. They decide to make a horror movie instead, and read some sort of summoning they found on reddit. Of course, this actually summons a dark spirit which tries to kill them. Or at least freak them out. There is zero clarity on what the spirit really wants, whether the pendant is actually important, why it is attacking them, etc. This movie is just a bunch of scenes thrown together on purpose, by someone who thought that their laziness would be a good idea. Take, for example, how rather than each character getting their own scene in their horror movie, all the actors just perform the same scene. Did anyone think it would not be boring to watch the same scene performed by 5 different actors? The more and more I think about this movie, the more convinced I am that it was trying not to be funny on purpose. Surely.

Anyway, there are two Aussie actors in this movie, which is cool. It would have been nice if they were in a better movie, but whatever. It is what it is.

I see the ratings and I can figure why it would get a low score but really doesn't deserve it. They kept the movie interesting enough to keep my attention until the end. The actors weren't horrible so that's always a plus. There are a few comedic moments throughout -- a couple of which got me smiling. The Story is a possession story so nothing new there. But, they did put a little twist on it which you might find enjoyable. Movie was done all on Zoom, which I personally find interesting -- even before the pandemic. Although at that time the movies used Face-time as their medium. All in all not bad. If you like possession films and "social media" films then give it a go. It will at least keep you busy for a while.

This movie was a 1/10 idea with a 10/10 cast who did everything they could to pull it up. Nothing happens followed by no story followed by more nothing. Great cast though.

It was fun and there was just something about it that made me want to watch it till the end. I mean this was shot at home so don't bring up expectations that you would have from a movie typically shot on sets. They are just different wavelengths. But, the characters are stupid and i think that is on purpose, I get it. I really liked it especially Claire Holt and Darren Barnet... It had some parts that made me chuckle a little...and the fact it was shot on phone and zoom, well that's just great how it turned out to be...You should give it a try if you are looking for something light, not really serious...

All the nauseating camera motion of a found footage film in the making of a found footage film. Top that off with a reminder of all the Zoom meetings I've been forced to sit through during a pandemic, and I just couldn't like this film.

The character build up was thin, but that was a godsend because the characters were shallow. I didn't want to know any more about them than what was presented early on.

The concept is something everyone who owns a phone has thought of. It's only the most narcissistic of us that would even try to pull it off. It dates back to 2008 when "SMS Sugar Man" was shot entirely on an iPhone.

I'm sure there's an audience for this film, but I found myself browsing Reddit half way through.
