Guy has tree trunk shoved through eye and brain.... "You OK Son? ... Hang in there"...
I think that sums this movie up completely.
Instead of Hold Your Breath it should have been titled Close Your Eyes...yes folks, it was *that* bad. Some of the lines of dialog were absolutely hilarious though I am quite sure they weren't meant to be. I'll never see bobcats or sandpaper in the quite the same way again.
The actors attempts at actually acting were quite painful to watch and it would appear that most of them all used the same dentist as a majority of them had teeth that closely resembled chiclets.
The entire premise of this ridiculous film was flawed from the beginning but I won't try and explain why this movie was so awful and in so many ways as I am currently trying to erase it from my memory and forget that I ever watched it. Avoid this one at all costs.

No spoilers here, just basics.
The acting was fair to OK. The story/script was fair/OK (interesting, but maybe a little to detailed and over-thought, which COULD be OK or great).
But the direction and production of this just blew any "watchability" elements apart. What was reoccurring themes got lost in the convoluted mishmash of the director over emphasizing things that didn't matter, and letting things that do matter just slip right past. Then throwing in totally unneeded special effects that added nothing, and actually detracted from the ability to get into the story. On and on and on, ever 10 minutes part of me went "ok, I get why the actor played it that way, but why did they shoot the scene like that, and edit it that way, it might has well of been a live play on stage..."
If you can see past the horrible production of this movie, there is some decent acting and an interesting story underneath. But, to be honest, it's SO difficult to see because of the horrible production, I couldn't recommend ANYONE try to watch this movie (unless you are only doing so to get horror movie story ideas and see if the actors in it are any good).

I understand movies are supposed to be fantasy and what not, but people can't be this stupid. Even if you are curious enough to check out the abandoned building, thoughts of sex usually don't pop into your head. And who willingly sits in an electric chair? And you see the power surging so you tighten the electric chair head strap on your friend instead of taking it off? Not to mention giving up your phones into 1 location instead of just turning them off for the weekend? And let's not talk about the jank ending. You couldn't kill these kids off fast enough. Normally I'd complain about the lack of minorities in the film, but I can see why other races would not be bothered with this crew of plastic surgery nightmares
This movie is the stupidest movie I have ever watched... Waste of 2 hours of my life...Serious waste of money... If you have any mind... do not watch this movie... Awful Awful AWFUL... I hated every minute of it... the effects sucked and it was just stupid... They made up scenes that NEVER FRICKING happened... I watched the whole thing to see if it got any better but it didn't... it sucked... the whole movie sucked... I would never tell anyone to watch this movie ever... the preview looked good but the movie was horrible... it was just straight horrible... I am so mad that I watched this movie... I don't know who would ever come up with a movie so stupid... I am so disappointed... I seriously thought this movie was going to be good but it wasn't... it was dumb... Even though this movie was so dumb I will still always hold my breath going past or through a cemetery and I will never use an egg beater ever again....
