Well this 2021 horror movie titled "The Spore" from writer and director D. M. Cunningham certainly sounded interesting from the synopsis and the movie's cover/poster also had some interesting appeal to it. However, as I sat down to watch I must admit that this was a movie that I hadn't even heard about.
And as the movie unfolded on the screen, I have to say that the first half of the movie was an inconsistent mess that just didn't really have much of any narrative connection, and I was somewhat lost as to what this was really about, since it felt like I was watching fragments of stuff shot randomly and put together. Then the second part of the movie made more sense, but it wasn't exactly top notch entertainment.
I feel like writer and director D. M. Cunningham didn't really have an aim with "The Spore" and it just felt cluttered, random and chaotic. The entire movie lacked a proper narrative and a red thread throughout it all to tie it properly together.
But I did manage to endure the entire ordeal, though the movie didn't get better as the storyline trotted on and on. So this 2021 horror movie was somewhat of a swing and a miss for me.
Visually, though, then "The Spore" definitely had some interesting visual effects and it looked rather good and realistic, so that part was working for the movie, just a shame that the storyline was such rubbish. And a real shame actually, since the concept of the storyline had so much potential.
My rating of "The Spore" lands on a generous three out of ten stars.
