The Blackwell Ghost 7

Well, I absolutely loved it! Bought it on digital today as soon as I heard it was out! Not disappointed at all! Bern buying and watching these movies as they've come out and not disappointed yet. This one goes rightbup there with the first six. I love that he's added a new human enemy element to this one so the stories can continue while yet still giving us that paranormal element we've come to know and love!! Very scary, especially that ending. Almost gave that slasher movie nod while still staying true to it's paranormal roots! I can't wait for the story yet again "to be continued!" I want to see more!

This is a really confusing movie. It has nothing to do with a ghost.

It's basically about a (perhaps) killer who is now stalking some dude in FLorida who fims it all.

Oh, yes, there are some ghosty things in the film, but that's not the plot.

And then there's the telephone guy who represents who, I don't know. You cant even understand him and he gets subtitles. Is this the FBI? I dunno. It's never explained.

To add insult to injury, there are some really silly scenes. Like in the beginning the guy says he had to move all his furniture into the kitche because of a leak. Only the kitchen has no furniture.

But the big bit of nonesense is the camera he finds in the woods. If this was placed there by the serial killer, why doesnt he get it checked for fingerprints?

In all this was a waste of my time.

So I heard this was out on the day, I rushed to Amazon Prime to Rent it, I was not dissapointed, as usual it was an immaculate presentation, less ghost activity but my godness was it gripping. As always Clay presents this in such a way as to immerse the viewer drawing you in and making you invest. I watched it three times and every time there was something new a little neuance, suggestive and dark. The final scene had me freaking out and dying to see what is to come next Can't wait for 8! Thanks Clay for making a series of films that just keeps giving and never dissapoints. The juxtaposition between Supernatural activity, pathos, loss and serial killing horror is so cleverly done.

I enjoyed all of the previous titles in this series. In the beginning, it really felt like it could have been a documentary, but as it kept going, the immersive reality of the series has been on the downslope. This is the point in the series at which there is no longer any question that this is scripted and not a real documentary. The natural feel of previous versions is lost, and you're left with the feeling that you're watching a very mediocre and completely scripted horror film. Shots that are supposed to be in an environment look like they're clearly shot on green screen, the police officer enlisting the help of Clay moves from unlikely in the previous titles to completely unbelieveable. The antagonist becomes unbelievable, obviously trying to get caught, stopping a hair's width short of leaving a map of his location with a full confession saying "I did all of the bad stuff, find me where X marks the spot on this map". Clearly he intends to make another movie in this franchaise, and while I really hope that the next installment fixes some of the mistakes made in this one, as things stand, I feel like he's gone from pushing his luck with milking this for sequels to clearly crossing the line. This title lacks the scares of previous installments, but foremost breaks the illusion that he established in previous films that make this believeable as a documentary. He's clearly running out of good ideas for the franchaise, and poorly done green screens in what's supposed to be real life, clunky acting with even clunkier dialog leaves this as the movie that even for fans of the series that he should have stopped before making. I'm undecided on whether he should try and get it back on the rails with the next movie, or whether he should just cut his losses at this point.

I was expecting more and I had high hopes as I was looking for a good horror movie to watch and this movie had a high rating but I ended up very disappointed. I don't know how this one is rated above 6.0 when it's so boring and the story is just mediocre, nothing that you hadn't watched before in a horror movie. It's not interesting, there's no action. It's hard to like this kind of movies when the actor just record themselves and talk to the camera telling the audience what's going because it just kills the plot. The actor was good, he did a good job and him is the only thing that made me watch it until the end.
