Really Surprised!
It is a performances centric movie
Good movie, but best of all time? Hardly . . .
It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.
Some familiar names from the big and small screen who had seen their day or had yet to achieve a modicum of fame dot the cast of Forget Me Not. Every time I see one of these teen slasher flicks I'm convinced that people are cast in them because they can overact outrageously, have a ball doing so and no one notices.Carly Schroeder is a popular kid in school, definitely one of the cool ones with a smart brother and dating the school quarterback Micah Aliberti. After a ghost girl appears to her who looks a bit familiar, her friends start getting eliminated and I do mean eliminated. It's like they were never here.Some kids game way back when unloosed some demon spirits who are playing havoc with time and space. The ghost girl is a friend from childhood. More I will not say.An interesting concept, but just the usual guts and gore in the end.
I decided to finally watch Forget Me Not today and I must say it was better than I expected.I enjoy all types of horror movies and I have seen quite a bit in my life and this is something new to me.I haven't seen this type of story used in any horror movies I have seen yet and I did enjoy the plot and the characters were played nicely.I gave this a 6 because some of it was predictable as most horror movies are but all in all I liked this.Not sure if purchase worthy but for sure a rent.~Joe
I was pleasantly surprised with this movie. Sure there were the typical low budget movie errors but if you know this genre than you expect that. The ending turned out different than I had expected. It had a very good story line and followed well. The effects were very good for the budget and level of this movie. It had enough suspense to capture you and enough foreshadowing to keep you informed without killing the movie. Now the one thing that definitely hurt this movie was the character development and the ability for one of the girls to reach out to the audience and have them win the audiences support. The ending kind of took me back, but at the same time left me unsure how to feel about the end result of the main characters. The movie did a very bad job of developing a clear protagonist and antagonist with the main characters. It was like either one would have deserved the win or loss. If they would have gave more time to filling in the characters before they moved on to the next kill scene it may have been a more in depth film with a clear protagonist and antagonist. Overall the movie left me with a wow did not expect that, but left me thinking it is what it is for the main characters.
Take a creepy nursery rhyme ala Freddy Krueger, throw in a pack of adolescent horny youth, some Asia-style broken jointed ghosties. Mix together and sprinkle with some Final Destination deaths. Add a side of cemeteries, An instant winner... not. A group of senior friends inadvertently evoke the ghost of a long forgotten girl named Angela. Soon a mysterious series of deaths occur. The memory of the murdered person is instantly erased. Except for Sandy (Carly Schroeder), who is the sole person alive to remember their names.A tired directorial execution of an idea, which really didn't convince me in the first place. The blatant formulaic approach in selling a teenage slasher story short of any real concept failed to catch attention. The prerequisite cascade of deaths fail to keep attention and the all engulfing hunch that you've seen this scene before assuredly does this movie no favours. There were a couple of sensible ideas roaming around somewhere within the wooden acting (save for a instantly appealing Cody Linley) and uninspirational heartless death scenes fail to make up for the borefest. The movie has little to no suspense throughout and basically goes from death to death in a by the numbers fashion. Anyone counting on a final payoff twist will be left aghast at how terribly the roof scene was executed.Special effects are decent, especially in regards to the ghostlies (however generic they may be), but all in all nothing worth spending time and money on given the onslaught of better movies from Asia.
