The Scorned Trailers

After terribly gory happenings occur one day in a hidden beach house on the Malibu Shore, it leaves one person crying, one person soaked in blood, and another one dead. 17 months later, a group of hot twenty somethings move into the now abandoned beach house, all of them unaware of what had happened in the place over a year ago. One by one, temptation seduces the house mates into betraying their romantic relationships and they are punished for their infidelities, by an avenging angel of death. When the first victim is killed, the police believe that it is simply a drug overdose, but a whacked out spiritualist believes in actuality, it was the ghost of the dead girlfriend. With the help of the spiritualist, the new tenants of the house fight to survive and search desperately to unlock the shocking mystery of...THE SCORNED.

Reviews
Evengyny Thanks for the memories!
Salubfoto It's an amazing and heartbreaking story.
Ariella Broughton It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.
Walter Sloane Mostly, the movie is committed to the value of a good time.
kosmasp Not sure whom this was aimed at (one tag line being "Watch your favorite reality stars ... DIE!". Was that for fans or haters of reality TV? Plus does anyone even remember those people after those shows are of the air? Like the 15 minutes of fame are over, who are you again? But it would be unfair to scrutinize all of them. Because some of them seem to actually be able to act.Not that there is much chance that they were going to show it in this movie, but I've seen worse. Story is pretty simple and you can see things coming a mile off. What is really interesting and might be a better story, is the making of the movie. Seems like a lot ruckus went down behind the scenes, which you only get a glimpse of in the making of section (second DVD). Looks like a reality TV crew was following the "real" crew around. For real! (the show has a promo on the DVD and is called "Kill reality") Seems like not everyone was happy about that ... watch the outtakes for that ... again the special features are almost more intriguing (in a car crash kind of way) than the movie itself
miababy2 This contains spoilers* My love affair with this movie definitely began during the "making of" TV show on E!, Kill Reality. By the time the TV show ended I was geeked to see just how these people would die! I was happily surprised by most of the script.I actually thought that the casting was brilliant. It has most of my favorites and I got a huge kick out of watching their first attempt in the movie business. I thought Ethan Zohn was super convincing. His death scene, although super bloody was my favorite! Sweet justice is served watching Jonny "Fairplay" Dalton finally get what he deserves. The DVD is way better than the E! version. The extras are classic.
Luna-tic For some reason because E! sponsored this movie I thought that it could be decent. Decent...not good. But what was good about this thing? Seriously. THe acting was horrible (Bob Guiney withstanding). THe special effects were horrible. The picture/sound quality was horrible. And the plot????? Come on, there is a ghost killing people for 'cheating' on their lovers. The only thing....the ghost was for a woman that was still alive! Doesn't that tell you all you want to know. The story was not scary at all and it was very boring. You think soap opera acting is bad....wait until you see this.....actually please don't waste your time.
nagyovafan The Scorned (2005) 5.5/10 Trish Schneider, Steven Hill, Jenna Lewis, Bob Guiney, Trishelle CannatellaI just finished watching "The Scorned" on E! I give the movie a 5.5/10... the Unrated version will probably be a 6 or 6.5/10, so.... yeah, the acting was bad for the most part, except for Trishelle. Her chase/death scene was pretty awesome. Jenna Lewis, Stephen Hill, bad. Stacie J, Bob Guiney, bad.Trishelle Cannatella, Trish Schneider Tonya Cooley, Ethan Zohn, good. And by good, I mean by comparison. The movie is about an "angel of death" who returns to the house where her fiancé cheated on her to kill every unfaithful lover who is there. The movie had a very small budget, but the visuals and such are all good. It's the acting that brought the score so low.The movie is campy. It has a lot of funny reality TV references in it. There's plenty of violence, which is always good, and plenty of sex. It brings you back to the old 70s and 80s horror movies where it was mainly about sex and violence. It's not "genre-breaking" like it claims to be, but it is a fun little ride.As a horror movie, it's not very scary, but I wasn't expecting it to be. Some of the editing was scary (and I mean scary bad, not in a good way). The script suffers a little bit from an ensemble of first-time writers (including Rob Cesternino of Survivor fame).Umm... I guess it's worth a watch. Don't go in with high hopes and you'll enjoy it.
