8/10
Quite the surprise. Solid low budget horror.
14 December 2014
When I saw the title, I went in not expecting much. Imagine my surprise when I found out this was a truly scary horror gem. Lately, I've been disappointed with the big budget horror movies like Annabelle, which left me jaded and longing for the true horror movie genre.

Cellblock 11 is realistic, solid, and believable. It's the stuff that you want to see on all these paranormal TV shows that flood your cable TV. After watching Ghost Hunters, Ghost Adventures, Haunted... you're left wanting. Never seeing anything conclusive gets a bit boring. I know they're supposed to be reality, but I get tired of the off-screen noises and things being thrown off camera that only the team can see.

For a low budget feature, it gives you everything that those shows miss. It's a very good movie, it gets right to the point with no wasted unnecessary dialog and uncomfortable characters. Don't expect a bunch of cgi and camera tricks. It's simple, basic, clean, and definitely worth a watch.
