Evengyny Thanks for the memories!
Majorthebys Charming and brutal
Griff Lees Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.
Asad Almond A clunky actioner with a handful of cool moments.
Prue L what a waste of money.I seriously want to go back to the video shop to get my money back. I mean, how did this even make it to Australia???? The film is shot without a filter and has absolutely no atmosphere whatsoever! The acting was terrible, the script was a total waste of paper and the cinematography.... what cinematography? All the action takes place in one house, with some crappy bluescreen scenes for good meassure. Honestly, I've seen homemade porno films with more ambiance. In fact I was disappointed that it wasn't a porno. My boyfriend and I fast forwarded the whole thing to see the sex scene and it was the lamest thing ever.I just don't understand how this movie was even made! Who funded it?, where'd the money come from? The amount of time and effort put in to this could have helped the UN children's fund or something. So far the only thing they have achieved is a heap of bad reviews on IMDb and a few fake glowing ones that I'm sure the the filmmakers wrote themselves.Not scary. Not even funny.I feel so ripped off.
sally1-1 The copy I screened was packaged nicely. I admit that 3/4 of the way through it I almost shut it off. But bad movies get made all the time. This isn't the unusual thing about this DVD. Upon reading the reviews here at IMDb, I'm convinced that most of the reviewers had to be in the filmmaker's camp. There is no other way to explain someone actually saying "this is a great film." The story, directing and acting are all mediocre at best. But how they got the lead is really a mystery. Her full frontal sex scene is somehow more embarrassing when you start thinking how they talked her into it. Did she think this was going to be a critical success, a breakthrough role for her? I don't know. After a little research I discovered that the producer and director are the team that created the wonderful short film "Whiteface." How they made a picture like this is a good question indeed. Now, I did visit the website. This is where things get even more bizarre. They started a petition to try to get the film distributed into theaters. They somehow reasoned (according to the website) that the lead's previous voice work for the xbox game "Halo" would somehow be a box office draw.
darkorion98 I thought Inheritance was a very cool movie. I have always loved these kind of movies. Inheritance is one of them movies that will make you sit there and watch right to the end because of the interest it gives off. Although this is a low budget movie I thought they did very well with what they had to work with.A lot of these big budget films are just in it for the fancy graphics and the special effects and most are done with computers now anyways but with this movie you can see it was done with the viewer in mind. I highly recommend this movie if you would like to see a movie from start to finish without getting bored.There is nothing I like more then a movie where a person dies off and leaves the house to someone and when they go to the house freaky stuff begins to happen.
frellingdren I am a very open minded movie-goer. And I have seen EVERYTHING out there (in terms of horror/sci-fi)...even the crop of low-budget, filmed on video crap that is flooding the video stores these days.This movie... was one of the WORST THINGS I HAVE EVER MADE MYSELF SIT THROUGH IN MY ENTIRE LIFE.I RARELY write reviews like this. But. I often come on IMDb and other such sites and read reviews and look at ratings... to get a basic idea of the tone of a film. I recently saw DEAD BIRDS because of IMDb reviews and really, really enjoyed it. It is now clear to me now that the only people who could have POSSIBLY enjoyed this movie enough to write theses glowing reviews I have read about it...were people who worked on it or stand to make a buck from it.There is NOTHING redeeming about this movie. NOTHING. Well... I take that back. There is ONE good camera shot in the entire video. But even that shot lasts 2 minutes too long... so. yeah. NOTHING REDEEMING.I don't mean to be a jerk... but. PEOPLE. PLEASE! Save your free rental.... this movie is not worth it! I turned it off after 40 minutes... and then decided to MAKE myself watch the rest so that I wouldn't feel like a heel when I came online and vented my frustration at having spent 4$ on this slime.The main girl (from HALO, I hear...which I love)... is NOT LEADING LADY MATERIAL. She seemed like... a girl in my high school drama class who was only there because it was an easy credit. Her friend at the diner was more leading lady than she was. NOTE TO THAT ACTRESS: Please take my humble advice and GET A NOSE JOB. If you do that.... you will go much farther than drivel like this.The other actors in this movie (her boyfriend especially) were the WORST OF THE WORST. My god in heaven. There aren't even words. Where did you dig these people up? Maybe it wasn't the actors... maybe it was just that the script was SO BAD. ... No... It was BOTH. Horrid actors AND horrid script. Did I mention the horrid music yet? Reminded me of Friday the 13th: The Series... only... not quite that good.Some of the dialog was SO BAD... that I sampled it to my computer for future fun. My favorite line was: "You'll like death... its boring!"Please God in heaven.... Please. Hear my prayer. Stop people from making this kind of crap anymore. I honestly feel like I am going to have an aneurysm if I keep thinking about people spending untold hours on a waste of time such as this.Someone, somewhere gave this movie a greenlight. What planet am I living on? I could film myself clipping my toe-nails and it would be better than this WASTE OF TIME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
