Old People

I have to say I'm surprised by the hate. Sure the ending was a bit flimsy and the movie pretty much came across as a zombie film but it was tense, gruesome and had a nice brooding tone. Some of the scenes were a little dark and a couple of "wholesome" scenes were a little cringey. I'm not sure why the start was shot with all these floaties in the air to give that fairytale look, came across a little cheesy. Horror film.-wise I was surprised who lived and died, it was not who I expected. All in all, not a bad film and if you like slashers and zombies, this one will be right up your alley. Also I always have a soft spot for German language films that aren't war movies!

I've seen a lot of articles about people complaining this movie was to brutal. I honestly don't understand. There were So many movies just as, if not more brutal that have passed through. The Hostel franchise, Green Inferno. I'm certain I'm missing quite a few. It might be the fact that it centers on the elderly that it offends, I can't say. All in all, I personally thought it was a solid watch. The acting was good but not over the top.. The family dynamic and characters were believable. Sadly in today's world life is like this for many of our elderly. I most definitely would recommend it to any horror fan!

Well no pun intended and I won't say the word, because you probably know anyway which one it is. It starts off with a quite gruesome scene - and then gets brutal. Yes you can say this was another pun. Old people in our society have it quite bad to say the least. Generally speaking that is - the director somehow made some observation of that, while being out in town. I guess he saw how alone they are - or he felt they looked that way.

There are some real worries and problems he integrated in the movie. I know that many at the festival I watched this had issues with the performances. I actually liked most of it. Yes you do have cliche scenes ... like the one about love and being eternal or not. Of course this also plays into the aging theme ... but could have been handled better.

This points at an issue our society has - one that will not end up the way it is portrayed here.

Yes, of course it could have been better and i rly wish there had been some other choices.

BUT at least this has a decent plot and the premise is relevant.

I am german and seldom watch media content made from "home", i just dont relate to the way actors tend to speak in movies and shows... so if find myself NOT beeing turned off by that, then it has to be sth. About it thst grabs me.

Surprisingly this did.

And i enjoyed this a lot more than 90%of the horror ive seen this year (and i watched over 120flicks). Eg i watched hellraiser22 right before this and though it has much cooler shots and overall set... the budget was huge and that made for great visuals... but that was all i liked about it.

At least this movie has something u may think about at the end.... if u choose to think, that is....

I think it's a very bad idea to portray old people as individuals who murder people for no reason and go crazy in order to explain the abandonment and loneliness.

Although I was extremely uncomfortable in many parts, I continued to watch this movie with sadness rather than fear.

I must say that some of the scenes, which are repeated in many places, are very amateurish. I had a hard time understanding the target of the main villain.

With all my good intentions, I would like to think that such a film was made to reach young people and tell the troubles of old people. That's why I recommend watching this disturbing movie.
