Incarnation

Well, sometimes you just have to stop and take heed of a low IMDb rating when stumbling upon a movie that you are not familiar with. But that is not something I do. Nay, I believe in giving a movie a fair chance and will watch it if I haven't already seen it and have the chance. And thus it was with the 2022 horror movie "Incarnation" from writers Tyler Clair Smith and Isaac Walsh.

I didn't know what I was in for here, as I hadn't heard about the movie. But I figured that it probably wasn't a whole lot given the low rating. But still, maybe it was a movie that would have some appeal for me. Who is to say that the preference and taste of those before me would match mine?

But as it turned out, then director Isaac Walsh didn't exactly dish out the worlds best horror movie here. Sure, it was watchable to an extend. But don't get your hopes up, because the narrative is slow paced and there isn't really a whole lot of anything exciting going on.

The acting in the movie was adequate, I mean for a movie such as "Incarnation". It is a movie with a small cast ensemble, so they had to perform well to carry the movie. I will say that the acting performances were adequate, and let it be at that.

Visually then "Incarnation" was a snoozefest. There was nothing interesting to see here, nor anything even remotely scary.

This is not a horror movie that I would recommend you rush out to watch. Sit down to watch it, if you have absolutely nothing better on the agenda, and if you are an avid hardcore horror fan. If not, then just skip on it and you will not have missed out on anything.

My rating of "Incarnation" lands on a three out of ten stars.

Couple move into an apparently remote house (although it turns out it's next to a freeway) and find demonic goings on. Not original. The demonic door opening/closing/voices are pathetic. The cinematography is appalling - constant shaky camera and dull lifeless colours. Diggs and Uberuaga are not too bad, but the characters they play are terrible and the whole film feels like it was stitched together from rehearsal takes. For Madsen to still be getting work is remarkable. The plot is half-baked. Why this has so many high ratings is beyond me. It's not the worst film ever made but there's nothing good about it, apart from maybe the house itself, which is interesting.

I don't like to be negative but this was painful to watch. The acting was stiff and the story didn't flow.

I was hoping it would get better or have a twist but I was let down.

Strong contender for 'Worst Movie of All Time Ever'.

I'm not going to waste my time going into detail (life is too short) but I recommend you watch something else, anything but this blob of drek.

Your time is valuable, don't waste it on junk reels like "Incarnation".

I rented this movie for 6.99 and I wish I hadn't.

For 2 famous actors I thought it was going to have a great plot when I say great I don't mean stupid I mean more of a thriller less than something that these actors would not be in!! This was just stupid all around!! When I see Mike madsen I think of Goodfellas this is not even a part that I would ever imagine seeing him in. What happened to him.

This was so fake and so stupid I wish I could turn back time and of rented something else.
