Empty Rooms

Fear is a motivator to bring people together or tear them apart. Fear for your child with or without disabilities is primal and all encompassing. "Empty Rooms" brings out all these emotions in a terrifying and "edge of your seat" narrative. You leap out of your chair many times in this psychological thriller directed by Adam Lamas. Get the right director and you will get a million dollar scare.Loved the retro feel of the film. It reminds me of when I would hunker down into my seat at the old Roosevelt theater, popcorn in hand, ready to cover my eyes in anticipation of the terror filled horror about to leap off the screen. What a thrill ride, a good story, good acting and a shocking hour and half that keeps you wondering what happens next. Loved it.

The plot/story is of the typical haunted house movie. Which isn't bad, but nothing that original. The acting was believable to me, unlike other low budget films. Although it was a little slow, it wasn't The Village slow. What stand out as exceptional, is that although the budget was $47.36, whoever put this together did an outstanding job at the creepiness and complete lack of stupid dialogue which usually prevents me from enduring a low budget film. I was very satisfied with the ending as well. To me, a 5 rating means that it's nothing to get excited about, but definitely a decent movie.

I really liked the maddie character. There are few jump scares, but I wish they had gone more into the back story of the house to see why it was haunted. It's not the worst movie I've seen but could have been better

This is a horror movie that is not scary. It has an awful story line. It has an awful ending. Do not see this movie. See The Amityville horror. See Amityville II. Do not see this movie. It is awful.

I really enjoyed this film.

Refreshing to see a low budget horror flick with some thought and heart put into it.

Amazing to me see movie after movie made with 1000 times the resources these guys had that don't demonstrate any feel for telling a story.

The acting performances are right on, the writing is superb, and the look and feel of the movie is cohesive and chilling. It is obvious from the start that they knew what story they want to tell and do so without apology.

The sometimes frustrating while simultaneously loving relationship that a single mother has with her special needs child is unexpectedly heady fare for this genre. Ramlah Yavar and Adam Llamas deserve serious kudos for bringing this to this movie and making it so accessible.

Tegan Ashton Cohan is also adorable as the "new age auntie". It would have been so easy to make this character a caricature, but Ms. Cohan manages to make her lovable and real while also bringing a lot of weight and power when needed. This girl means it when she tells somebody they have to do so something and we the audience can not help but agree; an impressive accomplishment considering we also get see her dancing around like a drunken yogi while burning sage in an attempted 'energy cleanse'.

Really hope to see more from these guys. Great work!
