Bleed

If you're looking for an action packed horror thrill with nightmare fuel look somewhere else 70% of this movie is bland and boring some scenes don't add up to the film or characters at all which leaves u confused at times acting mediocre at best lightly poorly made horror film attempt

It is kinda all over the place. Also it isn't very entertaining.

"Bleed" is the sort of film you might find in a cheap, paper case tucked way in the "Discount" section of a dollar store, and even then I would't say it'd be worth the price. Any basic description I've seen for this film makes it sound like a typical, low-budget "hunting ghosts in haunted building' film, which is most certainly isn't. This film attempts to take that idea and recreate it using a forced, confusing story line that leaves it's viewer bored and hungry for something better.

The film starts with a typical horror movie trope, as most do. The "Couple moving to new place to start a new life" is a story you may have heard before. From there on it then drags you into a story that is seemingly unique but that feels poorly written and rushed. What was, I assume, meant to be something new and unique in a genre filled with familiar ideas turned into a steaming, messy pile of poor acting, forced story, and endless disappointment.

All in all I'm surprised anybody actually looked at this, said it was good for release, and then actually released it to the unsuspecting public. It's cruel, really.

I'm a big fan of low budget horror and this one clearly had enough backing behind it to not let its budget hamper its production values, but that is about all this movie has going for it! The characters have nothing to them and the plot jumps about with little sense or reason.

Sometimes when a movie has shallow characters and directionless writing it is at least saved by big original or daring in what it is trying to portray, not here. Instead we are given a generic plot and a bunch of clichés, just jumbled up so it doesn't even make a standard horror movie. It is boring and yet confused at the same time, I'm not even sure how that is possible!

Overall I can't recommend this movie, it's not like it's even 'so bad it's good', it's just bad because it has no real entertainment value and very little to say for itself. You would not be missing out to watch most any other low budget horror movie instead of this, seriously.

What did I just make myself sit through? At first it felt like an indie film and I thought oh boy here we go. Then when the group started exploring the hidden prison and the whole part about the main actresses birthmark and the ties for her and her girlfriends new boyfriend being tied to the Village that they live by developed, things started moving and getting interesting. The story about preacher Kane was interesting but then they threw him into prison apparently, but then they intertwined him with the story of the locals, and then things got really bizarre. I'm just left very confused. The whole point of the guy's storyline just dropped off the face of the Earth never to be brought up again. The lead actresses storyline just kind of went off in a completely different direction. And I don't want to give away any spoilers, but let's just say that I got my hopes up for nothing because this movie ended up following the most typical of Horror templates that ever there was! Literally even the last line was spoken in a very famous horror movie! I can't believe they're not getting sued for it! I am trying really hard not to give away spoilers because this movie is just too hard to describe without explanations because it's so bizarre. I won't even say watch it for yourself because I don't recommend watching it for yourself. The only interesting character in the whole movie is preacher Kane and he's on the screen for maybe a total of 15 minutes and they completely confuse his character! I'm not going to get into the pros and cons because it would be just a waste of my breath at this point. If you try to watch this movie Good Luck because you're going to be disappointed!
