End of the Road

I watch this movie after reading the only review available on IMDb. Too bad I didn't check the message board before. The person who wrote the review, studio scarab, also appears on the board talking about "our" film. No wonder the review is good if it comes from someone who worked on it ! The movie is on the level of a bad TV movie The story, the directing, the acting, all this is really bad.

That's one more example of fake review about a movie that is bad and seems even badder when members of the crew seem desperate enough to use such attempts to make people watch it.

At least if it was worth it, but sadly it's not, far from it.

Don't waste your time or your money on this.

1/10

Well, it started okay with a standard "ghost hunter" show from the behind the scenes perspective. It never explored the supernatural aspects much focusing more on personal motivations. And the twist at the end. The acting was shaky at first, but the last bit of the movie displayed the weakness of the actors all the more. Sigh. Okay, I did finish it, and production while decidedly low budget wasn't overly poor. The main actor seemed decent enough to carry the film.

Not what I was expecting, but in a good way. And it's not a FF film, which bumped up the over all rating.

Fun twist on the reality TV ghost hunting genre.

Although there does seem to be some confusion regarding the name of the movie. I found it on Amazon under the title "1, 2, 3... Scream"

Stars are given based on my personal enjoyment of the film and plot.

8- Good movie, I'd give it another watch in the future.

So, this has some pretty putrid ratings, despite more than 30% of the reviews giving it a perfect 10 point "greatest ever" rating. So why is it listed with a 2.5? How is that even possible? I'm guessing that IMDb realized that the 10's are done by the production staff and they tossed them out.

So, what is the quality of it? I'd rate it as SyFy channel grade. Yes, I could see this as one of those movies sandwiched between "Titanoboa meets Godzilla" and "The Monster Alligator From Space." So how did this turkey get made? As it is a "show within a show" movie, my guess is that somebody at some drunken party had an idea for how to make a movie that was SO cheap that it HAD to make a profit. As such, I've seen a whole lot worse. I rated it a 4 because there is no 3.5, which is what I'd give it if I could. It definitely ranked above a 2.5 in production values, acting and originality.

The concept for this movie was a good one. Unfortunately the acting fell flat. But that's not the worse part. Acting in a movie like this isn't expected to be great. The worst part was the effects. They were just terrible. Not just low-budget "doing the best they can with what they have" terrible, but carelessly terrible. Even simple things like blood sprays were just done wrong.
