The Worst Film Ever

From my favorite movies..

Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.

A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.

The story behind this film is original and well written. The actors are well known and very good at what they do as well as the director. I would not say this was not a horror movie, but it most certainly was a well organized psychological thriller. It has a relatively slow beginning but grows to be more and more intense through out the film. So if you liked "The Shining", "Paranormal Activity" and "Sinister", I highly recommend this film. Also, If you don't like a particular genre of movie, please don't rate it! It spoils it for others who are looking for a good film. Ex " This movie was too scary" or "i generally don't like..." If you never liked the genre to begin with, chances are you wont like the movie... So don't give it crappy ratings giving false impressions to others!!! Some genres just aren't for you!!!

Hammer is back, and I grew up with hammer so I thought to know what I should see, pure Gothic horror with a bit of nudity, was I wrong,well if you have fast eyes there's a glimpse of nudity to spot from the two female leads. But I should have known better with the new Hammer flicks seen the last years.But this time I didn't liked it that much. Not that it was all that bad but it doesn't add anything to the paranormal genre. There aren't that many jump scenes if their are any but it's the atmosphere that makes this flick. No gore to see this time only a lot of talking going on a a movie that slowly turns in things go wrong. Not a typical Hammer like in the heydays of Hammer but a mediocre flick.Gore 0/5 Nudity 0,5/5 Effects 2/5 Story 2/5 Comedy 0/5

Set during the 1970s, charismatic Oxford professor Joseph Coupland (Jared Harris) enlists a couple of his students and a cameraman (Sam Claflin) in an experiment to prove his pet theory that supernatural powers exist but are a manifestation of psychological trauma. In order to do this they study a young woman by the name of Jane Harper who displays telekinetic abilities but attributes it to an evil entity called Evey. The group hole up in an abandoned house-cum-makeshift research lab and Professor Coupland's theory is put to the test as all manner of creepy incidents take place and relations between the group become strained.The problem with the movie is…it just isn't that scary. The reason? Well, to me it felt like in both its content and its execution it was trying to be too many things at once. In terms of content it felt like the movie was part possession movie/part haunted house/part occult thriller. In addition, the religious doubt subplot of the cameraman introduced at the beginning doesn't seem to go anywhere and I have no idea why it was set in the 1970s. In terms of style, this confusion comes out in the feeling that it was trying to straddle both traditional narrative conventions and found-footage. Additionally, the movie seems to be going down an English understated scare approach for most of the movie until we see a conspicuous special effect which, in context, just looks cheap. I get the feeling that, given Hammer's heritage (and the success of 'The Woman in Black' from 2012) the movie was written as a slow and subdued Gothic atmosphere soaked piece but execs worried it wouldn't cut it and decided to ramp it up in a few places.I don't mean to sound so damning, as I found it quite easy to watch and not unenjoyable. However, I constantly found my attention drawn to other things (characters' wardrobes, editing etc.) when the movie was trying to build suspense which is always a sign that something is fundamentally missing. Still, the movie does carry with it a certain base-line creepy atmosphere from the locations and the performances are solid. But I just can't help feeling that it was imagined as being something slightly different and which would have been much better.

This movie is So. Incredibly. Boring. Oh my god. Maybe it is because "The Babadook" (which was incredible) was the movie I watched before this one, but I don't really think that's why. The acting is not believable at all, even Jared Harris was not very good. I like him, I loved him in Fringe, but here he just comes off annoying. It sounds like the actors are talking fake British. The dialog is weird and stupid. The story, what little there is, is strange, and not in a good way. There are almost no creepy scenes. It is not scary at all. The only scares are sudden loud noises, but they are not noises from scary things, oh no, they are mostly from people clapping their hands. Yeah, clapping. I watch a lot of scary movies, and this has got to be one of the most boring ones I have ever seen. Oh, _so_ boring. It has a couple of mildly entertaining scenes, but then goes straight back to boring. The last part of the very last scene, like literally the last couple seconds is the best thing in the whole movie. Stay clear.
