Hellen I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much
GurlyIamBeach Instant Favorite.
Plustown A lot of perfectly good film show their cards early, establish a unique premise and let the audience explore a topic at a leisurely pace, without much in terms of surprise. this film is not one of those films.
Mandeep Tyson The acting in this movie is really good.
dreamerlives Lame plot which goes absolutely nowhere. Somehow hypnosis (did the writer bother to research the subject) turns a bunch of kids into angry pseudo-zombies that run around and chase people in a small town. There isn't a single likable character in the film. We never care if anyone lives or dies. The action and pacing are slow. The movie is way too dark. Bad cinematography. Then in the prison for about 20 minutes we get strobe lights and sparks in a weak effort to pass for visual excitement. The end is the worst part of all. It's downbeat, pointless and dull. Typical of Horrorfest films, maybe even sub-par, and that's saying a lot. The director and writer haven't worked much since this came out. So I guess that's our happy ending.
The_Void Of all the '8 Films to Die For' that I've seen (which is most of them), this one is undoubtedly the best (though that isn't saying much). It's not what I'd call brilliant horror, and certainly could have been a lot better, but there are some really good ideas here and they're well carried off by the director and his cast. The film could be called a zombie film - although I think that isn't really an accurate description. The film does take some influence from said genre, but the monsters in the film aren't zombies - instead, they're teenagers high on PCP. The plot focuses on a small town cop, who is devastated by the loss of his young son some years earlier. He's called into work after one of the other cops took the night off sick, and is intrigued by one of the prisoners in his cells. He notices the guy is missing a finger, and jumps to the conclusion that he's holding the man who kidnapped his son. After sending another officer to the prisoners' house, all hell breaks loose when the fourteen maniacs being held in his basement are let loose! The whole film takes place at night, and director Craig Singer (who previously made the half-decent 'Dark Ride') makes best use of this as it gives the film a tremendous dark atmosphere that serves the central plot line well. It's basically a film of two halves; the first half focuses on the interaction between the two central characters - the cop and the prisoner. The best thing about the first half is the suspense and intrigue drummed up as we wonder exactly what is in the guy's basement - the sequence that reveals it is really well done. The second half is much more action packed and sees the maniacs let loose on the streets, and then we watch as the cop desperately tries to keep his family safe. The film is rather savage in the gore department - though to the director's credit, he's restrained with the gore and uses it only when needed - which ensures the biggest impact. The fact that the special effects are well done is also to the film's credit. The plot line flowing throughout the film regarding the officer's son is interesting; but soon gets silly. It also has to be said that many of the character decisions throughout the film are questionable. Still, this is an interesting effort and I would say if you only see one 'film to die for', make sure it's this one.
Claudio Carvalho In the resort town of Stone Cove, thirteen children are missing for more than ten years. One of them is Kyle, the beloved son of Sheriff Dwayne Hopper (Patrick O'Kane) that is obsessed to know what happened to him. When the pharmacist Ronald Perkins (Richard Brake) is arrested, Dwayne suspects that he might have abducted his son, and he asks his pal Hal (Dean Sansone) that is at home to go to Perkins' house to investigate. Hal goes to the basement and finds many cells, and accidentally he releases the creatures that are imprisoned. Hal is murdered and the creatures escape. Dwayne goes to the place with Perkins and discovers the fate of the missing children that are released on the streets of Stone Cove in a hellish night.The gore "Perkins'14" is a sort of combination of the disturbing and sick Travis Betz's "Joshua (2006)" with any zombie movie. The result is disappointing since the attitudes of the lead characters are stupid in many times. The funniest part is when Janine asks her husband if he is all right. The guy has just found that he is a cuckold; his teenage daughter is a slut; and his beloved son has been abused for ten years and has become a monster. Further he has just seen many dreadful deaths and they are trapped in a basement under siege of powerful zombie-like creatures. Couldn't the writer have a more appropriate line for that moment? The conclusion is so imbecile that ruins the promising parts if this flick. My vote is five.Title (Brazil): Not Available
redsguy I got to see the first public screening of this film at the After Dark Film Festival and thus was able to meet all of the actors and directors from this. And I have to say that this was one of the greatest horror movies of all time. It is original, the first fan based horror movie ever, there is no hope, its dark, gory, mysterious, and just plain evil. Some of the death scenes are fantastic. The premise is set up extremely well. The acting is right where it should be, not overdone. And the plot was great. Even though the ending leaves you with so many questions it is the greatest ending to a movie ever. It was single handedly the most unexpected turn of events in a movie. I just had fun and loved this. Should get a nice big release if you ask me.
