Did I miss something?
HorrorFanLewis2 August 2021
Warning: Spoilers
I'm absolutely confused. Whilst the movie was low budget, the ghost FX low budget, the acting sub-par, I wasn't dismayed by it. In fact, whisper it quietly, I was almost enjoying it. And then...what happened? Did it skip 20 minutes of the end of the movie? So they wake up, after having sex, which he didn't remember, and then it skips to the end with the YouTube guy saying he's singing (sic) off. What happened in between? Where's the rest of the movie? Bemused.

This is abysmal.

Hyper-low budget without any filmmaking or a ting capability to make it a niche amayeur indie film, this is an absolute waste of an hour of your life.

Avoid.

Wine Box

Warning: Spoilers
A young woman comes home to her apartment and receives a phone call from the police department telling her that her mother was killed in some sort of vehicular mishap. Upon receiving this tragic news, the young woman begins to wail and weep uncontrollably. She then collapses into a shuddering heap on the floor and continues to sob and shriek hysterically.

At this point in the movie, as a viewer, I was tempted to join her, not because of the tragedy of the moment, nor because the actress's performance was so compelling. It was because her performance was so over the top. A woodchipper would have chewed the proverbial scenery with less bombast and aplomb.

After crying and wailing hysterically, the young woman begins drinking heavily, and I mean HEAVILY. She downs glass after glass and bottle after bottle of wine hour after hour for days on end. I'm not much of a drinker, but I was again tempted to mimic what I saw on screen because, yes, this movie was that bad.

With the assistance of a coworker who was blatantly and obviously smitten with this drunken, sobbing wretch, the woman tries to make contact with her deceased mother via the use of an Ouija board, and then through Tarot cards. She has no practical experience with either form of communication, but has a conniption fit when she isn't instantaneously successful with either means.

Frankly, I fell asleep at that point. Ironically, it was during the scence where Drunky McCryerson was vehemently insisting that therapy would be of no use to her, because the therapist would only prescribe her anti-depressants that would make her feel disjointed, benumbed, and lethargic... the same way that I had felt watching the movie.

The "independent" Drunky McCryerson drank so much in the movie, consumed so much wine virtually nonstop that "Wine Box" would have been a more suitable title, with "Whine Box" being a very close second choice.

Lies

I don't know what movie these other people watched but it definitely was not this one. It was slow and boring. Don't waste the time. I'm a huge horror fanatic and have no problem watching b films.... This particular film was just awful. HARD PASS.

A girl's mom is dead.

She drinks herself silly!

When a friend tells her "You can't go no like this", she replies "If Trump can be president...."

Well, yes, good luck with that, I'm off!

Where's the end?
wendolphred21 August 2022
I actually made it through the whole hour, I've seen worse. The acting and production are better than a tv movie but obvious it's low budget. But what was the point? Where's the explanation and why did it end with no conclusion? It literally just stopped.

The only decent thing about this film was that hot bloke. Pwwoooarrr lucky girl. Yep boring film. And the sex makes no sense. Pile of poop. Was expecting better, It could of been a better film. The ending just made no sense.

MUST WATCH
agatasiemienczuk12 August 2019
The movie really holds you in tension, the music is very well chosen which sets a very tense mood for the movie. Hopefully there will be a part 2 as I was left at a cliffhanger! The music at times is too loud, understandably this will be edited, as I watched this at a screening Amazing movie, recommend highly.

Engrossing

I am not a fan of horror, but I thoroughly enjoyed it. The movie put me through multiple emotions, also the music choice really helped set the mood and ease into the tension. Would suggest some sound edits to make the movie 10/10. Must watch!

WOW
dorotajarzabek12 August 2019
The film was very psychological, showed an amazing POV of reality and how people believe in everything. Due to this movie, we was able to discuss various important topics which aroused from watching this movie The movie left me with a lot of questions, will there be a part 2.
