Crazy Texas

This is a really neat film because of the twists and turn. It may seem hard to solve, but if you watch it a few times, it really kicks in. During the second half of the film, it really starts to click and pick up speed and dynamism. It's cool to another great Texas film! The cinematography is exceptional along with the set design. This really does make you think about the depravity of humans and what could actually happen at the extremes of behavior. This one is a nail-biter that pulls you along until the big twists swing through totally catching viewers for surprise. Bravo to the actors, they are believable and fun to watch.

Stumbling upon the 2025 horror movie "Crazy Texas" by sheer random chance, and never having heard about it nor seen it, of course I opted to check it out. I am a huge fan of all things horror, after all. But I virtually didn't know what I was in for here, aside from what the synopsis revealed.

The storyline fell short of entertaining me, and it was a rather monotonous and sort of dull viewing experience to sit through this movie. It was a bit amazing that writers Jordan Bradley, Marc Isaacs and Francis Juarez collectively could managed to come up with so little.

Needless to say that I wasn't familiar with a single actress or actor on the cast list. The acting performances in "Crazy Texas" was, for the most parts, actually fair enough, though there wasn't anything outstanding to be witnessed throughout the course of the movie.

As for "Crazy Texas" being a horror movie? Well, don't get your hopes up. Maybe if you are a newcomer to the horror genre, you might find something scary or disturbing in the narrative. But I've been watching horror movies for more than 40 years, so this was a mere walk in the park. A disappointing and dull walk, mind you. This is definitely not a movie that I will return to watch a second time. Nor is it a movie that I would recommend horror fans to go out and watch.

My rating of director Francis Juarez's 2025 horror movie "Crazy Texas" lands on a three out of ten stars.

Crazy Texas is a gritty psychological thriller that grabs you from the first scene and refuses to let go. It's not your typical horror movie-this one gets under your skin. The tension builds masterfully, with just the right balance of eerie silence, raw emotion, and shocking moments that hit hard without relying on cheap jump scares.

The story is smart and unsettling, with layered characters that make you question who's really the villain-and what's really going on. The atmosphere is thick with paranoia and dread, set against a uniquely Texan backdrop that gives the whole film a distinctive, haunting edge.

This isn't just horror-it's psychological warfare, and it leaves you thinking long after the credits roll.

A bold, original debut that proves indie horror is alive and well. Can't wait to see what comes next from this Director Francis Juarez.

Maybe you will like it if you liked Heretic. For me, it was very boring religious and philosophical talk between a couple of kidnapped girls and some sort of fanatic. An absolute lack of any interesting sequences or twists. Bad characters - just very boring. But what is especially depressing is how similar to Heretic it is. It really feels like your already watched this movie - I was very open to an interesting indie horror movie but this was very disappointing - I did not not even like Heretic, I obviously wasn't going to enjoy this lesser version. I feel very disappointed about this movie, since I gave it a try just because for some reason it had a good score. But no, it is not good.

It was a great psychological thriller. Characters were complex but not overly as that you couldn't connect with them. Main character was legit creepy. Choice of locations for scenes was on point and really captured the vibe. I really put myself in the girls shoes and caught myself talking to the screen, "don't do it" "just shut up", etc. Music at the end could have been a little better to really capture the plot twist. Don't want to ruin the ending, but really gave me 6th sense vibes.

Really original idea and I can't wait to see more from this Director and cast. Heeps better than movies popular movies like Blair witch project.
