The Trap Door (2011 Video) User Reviews

A horrible horror movie. Not in a funny way.

This movie could not possibly be worse. I got an IMDb account just so I could warn people of how terrible this movie is.

Saying that this movie has 'bad acting' would be a compliment. Stupid storyline, randomly jumps from scene to scene, the women never stop screaming and it's not even possible to like even a single character. There were random scenes of people walking down corridors and jump shots of people sleeping or wandering about without any purpose. There are characters that don't even have any purpose. I stupidly thought that this might be a fun horror movie but it's a disgrace to its genre. The movie relies on cheap horror tricks and random screaming to get its thrill factor. Viewer beware.

I must agree with the prior scathing review

This is not even a movie. It's a MESS! Incoherent incompetence. Was there a script? Did anyone read the script (if there was one) before greenlighting this project? No story line. No character arcs. No hooks. No set ups, and thus, zero payoffs. The majority of the cast don't even know they're in a scene. Obviously the filmmakers just cast their friends or squeezes. With a couple exceptions, the 'acting' was atrocious. Even the great narrator's voice, and one or two decent acting performances were completely overpowered by the total lack of clarity in the clumsy-ass storytelling. As for editing? Well, a story should arise out of the edit bay. BUT, it needs to be on the page first, and then in the can. I dunno, maybe the editors had little decent footage to work with. All movies have outtakes. But if what is actually on the screen here was the best stuff they shot, then this thing was doomed from the onset. The makers of this POS have no business making movies. Uggggghhhhh. Painful.
