Featured reviews
Was really impressed by this movie. Andi is a new scream queen. It was slept on during its release but I have a feeling this will have a cult following in the years to come.
Some people may find this movie slow to start, you have to be in the mood to watch the story develop as I was aware before watching, therefore I enjoyed it but I can see why not all people will. I enjoyed that it was a bit of a satanic movie with twists and turns along the way. The kid actor played his part well and the ending was good.
Son is worth a watch. It's good enough to keep you entertained for the entire movie. The story itself isn't new, in fact it hasn't been done a lot before, but that doesn't mean it wasn't entertaining. The horror scenes were not that frequent but the once that were are bloody and well made. It's all more suggestive horror, but the sound isn't bad and that helped creating a dark ambiance. As for the cast it was all good enough to see they know what they're doing. Son isn't bad, but it has that little déjà-vu feeling.
Emile Hirsch doesn't seem to want to act in the movie. The sound in the movie is very bad, not even heard. What keeps the whole movie alive; Luke David Blumm
The acting was actually pretty good by most of them. BUT!! The storyline was very slow and very predictable!!!
Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaIn the restaurant scene David made a sword with six blades out of plastic straws. This might be a reference to the six of swords in tarot that holds a visual and metaphorical meaning similar to the movies plot.
- GoofsLaura reports 'people' in David's bedroom, and later claims they poisoned him. There is no evidence of either, but a police officer takes her claims seriously. It seems inconceivable that Laura would not mention that she escaped from a cult while pregnant with David, or that police would spare a detective apparently to indulge her allegation of crimes with no evidence they even took place.
