I love stupid movies and halloween, but this was punishment. My wife found it on Amazon Prime (I usually avoid their content) and said lets watch it. These people should never be allowed to make another movie. There's no plot, you don't see the gore until the end, the acting is awful, the only tension is when you are screaming "hurry up and kill her so the movie can end. The protagonist, if you can call her that, spends half the movie running around doing about the dumbest things she can and the antagonist makes zero sense, isn't fun, isn't scary, isn't threatening, and definitely isn't interesting. Please, please, do not waste your time with it. I'm still pissed that she made me watch it.

It's sad because all that expense went into such a piece of garbage. It's was as if you gave a bunch of elementary school kids cameras and equipment and said..."go make a movie!" I guess when you think you are a film student, act like a film student and have access to equipment yet have zero brains and absolutely no concept of...well, anything, this is the workmanship. Hope at least the food was good.

Don't waste your time on this movie. Very slow. Very boring. Long quiet camera shots of nothing. Wish I had chosen a different movie to see, this one is not it.

It was a boring advertisement for, Saunders Halloween Park and 4ever 20 shirts. The acting was horrible. The character barely cried for her husband, she slept, drank juice, nothing really going on. I thought the main character, rose, was the killer due to her lack of compassion and tearless screams for her loved ones. I mean who leaves their friend tied up in barbwire, mangled up, bleeding to death to only call out for help 2km away from a busy highway? Someone who doesn't care that's who.

Why in the world didn't she call the police ? It's not very believable. I couldn't get past how stupid Rose was. There were cars on the road in clear view. Run out into traffic and stop someone. Or better yet call the police !!! I found myself getting mad and screaming at the screen for her to call the police. Instead she runs around like an idiot sobbing. 🙄😒👎

Sometimes a movie comes along that bucks the conventions of cinema in a good way. This is not one of them. Things start off on a promising foot. Early on there are two outstanding jump scares, perfectly timed junctures of sound and image that should be studied by aspiring horror directors. The downhill slide soon follows. Narrative means story, and the director of a narrative film's primary job is to tell one. Beyond that simple dictum lies plenty of room for creativity. And the director's toolbox is loaded with cinematic tools. CInematography is the primary tool used to convey the details of the story. Whether the director made his own cinematic choices or gave the cinematographer free reign, the unorthodox camera angles and lighting are at times interesting from a photographic standpoint, but much more adept at drawing attention to themself than serving the story being told. Underlit establishing shots, critical action taking place off camera, artily framed shots that only distract, do nothing to enhance the story and often create confusion. Rather than impress with their uniqueness they add to the tedium of a lightweight storyline stretched thin. Where close angles are needed we get wide shots. Or extreme partial close-ups that again are simply distracting in their self-consciousness. There is virtually no character development of the protagonists and even less of the antagonists. Not much to care about. There are some effectively horrific bloody bits for the gore-lovers, mostly at the beginning and the end, between which is a long stretch where nothing much happens and when it does it often happens off camera. If you're a photography buff and an involving story or crisp direction aren't important to you, you might like it.

Tip: for any Gravitas Ventures movie you have about a 10% chance that you'll make it through the whole film. Interestingly each GV movie is terrible in its own special way. This particular movie has slow lingering scenes that are meant to be artsy but actually just cover up the fact that this movie is completely dumb and worthless.

The torture was mine, as I struggling to make it past the 1 hour mark without slipping into a coma. I finally gave up at 1:02. The pain was in watching each dreadfully boring scene linger... and linger... and linger. The misery was in realizing I had paid $5 to bore myself to the point of tears. But, if you really want to know the details so you don't think I'm just unfairly taking out my frustrations on this film by throwing vague insults... The direction moved at a snails pace, or slower. And I wish I was exaggerating, but I am not. The dialogue was minimal and delivered with a total lack of enthusiasm by any of the actors. The camera work made things even worse. Long, slow still shots from weird angles or perspectives. There was no action, no character development, no witty dialogue, no suspense, nothing to make you care about anyone or anything in the film. Maybe something happens at the very end, I'll never know. And, lastly, I understand this is a low budget film. I actually like low budget, independent films. But the problems in this movie had little to do with the budget. It really seemed like an intentional, stylistic choice. And that choice was a bad one.

Initially, there was some thing to work with when hubby comes back from service and struggles with keeping things together while at the halloween hayride. But it quickly devolves into masked killing followed by 40 minutes of solid crying from the lead.

This movie felt a lot longer than an hour and a half. The lead actress was good, but they gave her too much weight to pull. If some of the long shots were cut down it might be more effective. Also I wasn't sure if her boyfriend had PTSD or just wasn't into her.
