I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

If you're interested in the topic at hand, you should just watch it and judge yourself because the reviews have gone very biased by people that didn't even watch it and just hate (or love) the creator. I liked it, it was well written, narrated, and directed and it was about a topic that interests me.

"Dead Still" actually turned out better than I had anticipated, given the less than impressive reviews and overall rating that the movie had received here on IMDb. But still, it is a horror movie, and that alone had me interested. But given the negative vibe to the reviews and such, then I must admit that my hopes for the movie weren't great.However, I was more than genuinely surprised that the movie was better than I had hoped (or feared) that it would turn out to be. Sure, it wasn't a horror masterpiece, but it still an entertaining enough movie, and it did have some originality to it, which was what kept the movie afloat.The story was somewhat different from what I had expected and it was that aspect of the movie that particularly turned out to be a fresh addition to the horror genre. The storyline is about a wedding photographer who inherits an antique camera, that has been used previously to take obscure death-scene photographs. And strange deaths starts occurring around the talented photographer, which are tied to the old camera.I will say that I was actually genuinely entertained by the movie, despite it not being a groundbreaking monument in the horror genre. But it still turned out to be entertaining and it did have a sense of originality to it.The acting in the movie was adequate for most parts, but I must say that it was especially Ray Wise who carried the biggest part of the movie with his performance and his usual wicked charisma on the screen.The effects in the movie were actually quite good, especially the creature make-up and designs. I liked those quite a lot. Just a shame that they weren't more actively used in the entire movie."Dead Still" is actually a good choice for a movie if you are in for an evening of horror movies. I was more than genuinely entertained and pleasantly surprised with it. Who knows, you might just be as well...

I've seen a lot of Horror Movies, and although most aren't even a touch original, I still have no Idea what I was expecting from Dead Still. If you haven't already seen it, spare yourself the 80+ Minutes of your Life you'll never get back. The acting was awkward, and uncomfortable to watch, almost like watching a School play performed by 12 year olds. If that Isn't enough to put you off, the Storyline is probably something you've seen at least a dozen times. The crappy Dialogue also left a bad taste in my mouth. I lost count of how many times I cringed while subjecting myself to this "film". Not only does the whole thing feel forced, almost like the script was a rush Job to try make a few bucks, it actually felt like a chore to sit there and watch it to the end. Sure, I was cheering when the credits rolled, but not for the right reasons.

I admit I watched for Ben Browder. I was very surprised that the film more story than effects driven. The effects and production values much better than I was expecting. Cast led by Ben Browder,Gavin Casalegno, and Ray Wise was also solid. Filmed in Louisiana and outside shots had great feel/look to them. The Booth Brothers used the visual effects well to enhance the story and create the world rather than take the place of the story. It was also nice to see a horror story that didn't involve a group of partying teens but rather a father and son who are both dealing with issues. Gavin Casalegno had to rely a lot on reacting and conveying his "dialogue" without speaking and he did it well. Ben Browder delivered as the dad with father issues of his own. Worth a watch for horror fans as well as there were some good creepies!

I enjoyed watching this movie...the basis of the movie was great...got me to wondering about those old photos and "maybe" with the camera itself, what there capable of doing....It was nice to sit in ones own living room and chat with the Booths...while the movie was on...like many of the movies out here you either like it or u don't...to each his own....and if u didn't like it.it takes a lot of guts to stand by what u write...but for those of us that liked it let us have our moment in the sun....I'm hoping they will keep putting out movies for us to review...my favorite characters were the kids...and the young man with the beautiful eyes...the children came across well in there character...excellent choice....OK this is it for now...tata....Bandits mom
