Lovesusti The Worst Film Ever

Erica Derrick By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

Philippa All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

Marva It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,

Paul Magne Haakonsen I was initially drawn to the movie because of two things; the first being the movie's cover. This DVD cover was quite interesting and it definitely showed that this was a movie in the horror genre. The second thing was that this is a horror movie, which happens to be my favorite and preferred genre of movies to watch.However, I didn't know what the movie was about, as I had no prior knowledge of the movie before picking it up and actually sitting down to watch it.I managed to sit through a whole 36 minutes of the ordeal that is "AfterDeath", before I got up and turned off the DVD out of sheer and utter boredom and pointlessness."AfterDeath" is definitely one of the more boring and uneventful movies that I have seen in a long, long time. And there was just nothing in the movie that proved to be appealing and substantial enough to warrant me to keep watching it.Sure, the special effects and CGI were adequate, from what I managed to see during the 36 minutes. The smoky apparition, or whatever it was, looked quite interesting. But the special effects could do nothing to salvage the movie.The characters in the movie were generic, one-dimensional and were struggling with worthwhile dialogue and just blatantly turned out to be characters that you don't care for in any way or relate to in any way.I am sure that the actors and actresses on the cast list were doing their best, but they were severely hindered by a lack of script and proper storyline. Also, the characters they were hired to portray had no dimensions to them, so the cast were fighting an uphill battle while wearing heavy chains to pull them down.The story was pointless and had no selling points, at least none to keep me interested or motivated enough to want to go on. In fact, I can guarantee that I will not return to finish this movie, solely because it was a snooze-fest of unheard proportions.If you enjoy a proper horror movie, then there are far better movies available out there in abundance. My recommendation is to stay well clear of "AfterDeath".

Alex John So this movie plays on the idea of a Christian afterlife. In most Christian churches you can redeem yourself in various ways for your sins, but this movie has a much more dark and brutal approach to sinning. It actually is scary if you think about that it might be real, for me it was anyway. The acting was OK, the actors look good, maybe the atmosphere could have been more creepy, it was OK, but the general idea of the movie is very creepy, in any case. I don't know if you have to be Christian to like it, or get scared, but it probably helps. If you're not, at least you can think of this movie as another perspective on the afterlife and the implications of every action one does in his/her life.

chinazauche-549-175155 AfterDeath- is an intelligent existential twist on a Horror film. Relying less on "Jump Scares" it packs a more psychological punch.5 people wake up in the middle of nowhere realizing that they are unable leave - and that this is all some sort of punishment for the lives they have lead. At first it seems like not much of a punishment- but when 5 "bad" people are trapped together BAD things start to happen. The cast is talented, pretty and fun to look at, but it is the ugliness of their actions that keeps you watching.I found myself still thinking about some of the questions brought up in the film, days after.

Scott McKenzie A girl wakes up on a beach. She walks inland and discovers a house with others like her. They're all dead - victims of the same accident - and they're stuck in a nightmare land between the real world and the afterlife. If that sounds like I've just given away the spoilers, I've got news for you - that all happens in the first few minutes of AfterDeath. On the face of it, AfterDeath is the classic setup of young beautiful people stuck in a house with weird things going on, but in a similar way to The Cabin in the Woods, the unique world around the house allows the filmmakers to play with the rules of the horror genre. They're already dead, but the threat they face is even greater. And the fact that everyone is photogenic is actually a plot point, rather than being a convenient coincidence. And that's what makes AfterDeath so compelling. Embarking on their first feature film, directors Gez Medinger and Robin Schmidt could have played it straighter, choosing to film a story that was a by-the-numbers slasher movie. That would have been enough to get their scores on the filmmaking board, but instead they've produced a film with genuine originality in a genre where it is difficult to stand out. The cast do a good job too, with notable performances from everyone involved, in particular Miranda Raison in the central role as Robyn. My only wish is that it would have been great to have more moments of humour. There were two genuine laugh out loud moments, but that's because there were only a couple of funny bits, not because there were loads of jokes that fell flat. However, that takes nothing away from an incredibly strong debut horror movie, and I'll be waiting with baited breath to see what this pair of directors come up with next...
