3/10
its a graveyard movie
23 June 2020
Well, after this roller coaster use of hifi drone filming, with droneshadows spot on and dust and leaves coming from the groung when hovering above the ground, tells me abit about the experience the crew of filmakers has. there are also some terrible sound work that shouldve been dealt with in postproduction. a little plus i give for the choice of locations, that really gives you the brackish feeling of the devilish undertones of this film.

its a newbies project thats for sure, the story tries to pretend something sub-supernatural but its no more than a copy of hundreds of bad flicks made in the 80's and 90's, its ploting gives great confussion, and the timeline hard to follow. the use of slowmotion is pure overkill for the impatient one of us, the acting crew do have some credibility and experience in their turns, but stumbles a bit herenthere, espescially on the swat and military tactics, and its all merely due to bad direction.

the first five mins do have an interesting chime of promise , mostly due to the score, but that very soon gets smashed by use of cheap synth sounds, that can be effectfull if done right but not here.

the makeup crew and special effects department shall be praised for their job making this a blood dripping experience, but thats it. the grumpy old man feel this was a copycatish, lets make a fake movie to make money, before the real horrorthriller hit of the summer reach the market-production, like the nun, midway, and top gun 2 films has had. its not a film thats unrecommended, it just didnt feel right on my swollen tounge, its a max of three stars out of ten
