Down Below

So happy to see low\mid budget horror making a comeback! The movie was a little disjointed and abrupt, but that's a subjective thing that I don't love, and has nothing to do with the quality of the movie. Story was good, acting was good, production was good. Definitely would recommend every and any horror fan to give it a watch! My grandson (13) loved it and wanted an immediate rewatch. I thoroughly enjoyed it it, and plan a second watch over the weekend when I can sit and really immerse myself in the experience. Horror fans (and honestly any indie movie fans) should definitely give it a watch!

This is one of the worst movies I've ever seen. It's clear that the director (who very foolishly cast himself in the main role even though he absolutely cannot act) clearly thinks he is a new David Lynch. He very much is not. The script is terrible and overacted; the cinematography is pedestrian and looks like a teenager filmed it and thought it was deep. No one does a good job acting in this, and for some of their sake's (how did this happen, Doug Jones?!), I hope I am the last person to ever watch this. The story is disjointed without the connective tissue of a Lynch film. I can find no rhyme or reason for the bleached out filter throughout the film. And who financed this? Why?

I am furious that I paid to watch this on Prime. The high rating here is clearly due to friends of the filmmakers writing fluff to combat the lower scores. The same is happening on Rotten Tomatoes-no real reviewers even saw this film.

My only guess here is that Dobrofsky thinks himself far smarter than he is. He should really reevaluate his professional choices.

This one is just good. I don´t care about the bad reviews (stars are only a formality). Today it is hard to find original movies, that are not sequels, remakes or IP. This one feels hand made and has the enthusiasm of a young filmmaker. Eric Roberts is cool here. It is hard to make a film and Spyder got it going. He will get better and better with his coming films. I admire writer/directors who get things done. No film is perfect by any means; everyone feels a film critic nowadays. I love film and original filmmakers. Like it or not, this guy is writing his own world and for me, that is it. Cheers and keep the puck sliding.

"Down Below" is a horror gem! It's got a killer cast for the genre, spooky small-town vibes, and a plot that keeps you guessing. Eric Roberts and Bai Ling crush it as always, but it's Alexis Knapp's gritty performance that steals the show.

Also Mr. Monday is one of the most unpredictable villains I've seen in a long time, not the classic Jason knock-off we've been accustomed to 100 times over! If you know you know.

The whole film is eerie and actually original-a rare find in horror these days.

Plus, it's only 90 minutes long! Finally a movie that knows how to pack a punch without dragging on endlessly for hours like so many 3+ hour sagas lately.

OK where do you cross a bad film with bad acting skills?

Answer: Down Below 2024 Movie!

Dreadful plot to start off with and some jumble scenes that went well over my head.

Typical religion and horror mixed in for good measures but the scenes fail because they are just so boring.

Dialogue is weak especially with the annoying ginger kid who just aks the most bonkers of questions to his pastor father.

Sex scenes are laughable and the killer in question is as wooden as a set of stairs.

If there was an oscar for poor acting would go to the Chinese kid who is in bondage gear. Talk about give a performance that your laughing your head off instead of being en-grossed in the actual scene as being serious.

I see some fake reviews on here where they are praising this bore fest on a huge level.

Dont believe the hype as I turned the movie off at 54:23 because I was bored, so yeah go figure folks!
