Vashirdfel Simply A Masterpiece

LouHomey From my favorite movies..

FirstWitch A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.

Neive Bellamy Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.

renegadesiha How could anyone find this scary or even believable is beyond me. It is tons of little things that don't add up. Firstly the guys weird contraption in the car that gives it a turbo boost....why?!! It just seems pointless. The geocache part was okay. When you find a cache you may take something and should leave something. I don't know that gps works under water but maybe they had one that does as I have seen underwater caches. I liked the fact that the characters looked different, unlike American films where everyone is a carbon copy of each other and you cannot tell who is who. It had the potential to be a really interesting story. Maybe if people know a little about HAARP before watching it will make more sense as the movie doesn't explain it. It just briefly touches on it and shows some pics and a folder with no explanation. Maybe it was just translated badly and a lot of things got lost, who knows. The random guy in the woods....why was he staying there when he knew it was dangerous? What the heck was a campsite doing near this secret facility? When they built the campsite they would have seen the signs saying "radiation danger" and yet they built a clearly well used site. Where did all the people go? Why does a gov't facility have no guards? How did the guy know the code to get in to write it on the dirt...did he work there before? How is this tower a plan for WW3 or to brainwash people? You can't really brainwash dead people Why is there radiation? Radiation has nothing to do with electromagnetic anything. Pick one or the other and if you are going to pick both, give a reason or backup. I mean...the electromagnetism and mind control, okay, then where does the random radiation come in to play. !!!!!! If they were exposed to that much radiation they would not be able to just leave. They were be radioactive. The body they bring out with the hand outside the bag...WHYYYYY It isn't scary, we know it's a body in the bag and also that body would be radioactive and need to be shielded not have the hand sticking out. Really .... the cops and locals have no idea this tower exists, come on. Anyone staying in that camp would know it, it was right up the hill. Why are the lights turning off behind them when they get into the facility? Were there people watching them? I HIGHLY doubt the computers of a top secret facility would be left open so you could scroll through at your leisure. They get into that main control room where the computers are and find a radiation suit and start freaking out over radiation....well firstly, that room had lockers and the bathroom had soap, meaning the people who worked there CLEARLY suited up and washed or whatnot in that room. Meaning the room was most likely protected from radiation so what the heck they are freaking out about is beyond me. They could have stayed in that room and tried to phone for help. They find one suit, yet there are lockers, maybe try looking for another suit?!!! and on and on and on the ridiculousness, which is a shame because it is an idea that in the right hands could have been a neat movie

Horst in Translation ([email protected]) "Lost Place" is a German German-language film from 2013, so this one will have its 5th anniversary next year. The writer and director is Thorsten Klein and this is actually his only filmmaking effort to this day. His co-writer is slightly more prolific. This is a horror movie that runs for 95 minutes plus another 5-6 minutes of credits. The most known players in here are easily the actors. Francois Goeske has played lead characters in several movies. Jennifer Ulrich was one of Germany's most known from her age group a while ago. Pit Bukowski appears in some solid films too, even if he is not as well-known as his male co-actors. Taubman has been in some pretty well-known Hollywood films. Böhrnsen I must admit I have not heard of I think, but I see she has been in some Til Schweiger films. And it is between her and Bukowski who gave the best performance in here. Both certainly elevated the material and the film for example got a lot worse when Bukowski's character died. Goeske is simply not good enough to carry the second half of this film mostly on his own. A bad casting decision. Böhrnsen is also incredibly easy on the eyes and it helps, but I also think her performance was fairly strong. As for Ulrich, she is entirely forgettable and her character is probably also the one who was written the worst in here. The suicide scene makes little to no sense. Goeske's character was written badly too, but there it is a mix of bad performance, casting and writing overall I guess and he is of course the central character in this film, it is a bit of a negative deal-breaker. What a shame.The horror action does not really feel that convincing overall. Lets just say there are many magnetic and electric and acoustic irregularities causing havoc for the protagonists. And the question if Taubman's character (who appears surprisingly briefly only though) is a main antagonist, a smart helpful guy or something in-between. What I actually liked about the film was the simple premise. 4 young people out there for a geocaching event and also thanks to the different physical looks (hair colors for example), it is easy to keep in memory who is who and who stands for what. That's also why I believe this introduction part was done very well and the first 30 minutes or so were when the film was at its best. Unfortunately, when the focus is really on the horror element, it all gets worse really quickly. The metal bug scene at the very end also feels a bit desperate in terms of scare factor as it cannot make up for all the weaknesses before that. And the ending that implies some kind of police/political conspiracy is also not half as smart as it attempts to be. I really wanted to like this more than I did and it only worked out for me for one third of the movie. It's a thumbs-down overall. Not recommended and as a whole it did not get me curious about potential future projects by Klein if he returns to making films. Not recommended.

marco-30-384328 Tecnically, it is in my opinion just an average 3D Movie. Nothing special about acting, nothing special about special-effects, nice but not overwhelming 3D-effects, pretty straight forward story-line. I still gave 7 out of of 10 points. Let me explain: Why not less? The movie thrilled me from time to time. That was exactly what i was expecting and what I wanted to see. No hardcore slasher, just a thrilling story of 4 teenagers in the forest. Why not more? In my opinion, neither acting, special effects, storyline or 3D-effects were that extraordinary that I would want to watch the movie again and again and again. I do not want to say that all of this was bad, please beware... It just didn't overwhelm me. But there is indeed one point that I really want to criticize badly. Before watching this movie I have never heard anything in my life about "geocaching". Didn't know that this exists. In my opinion the background of "geocaching" was not explained sufficiently at the beginning of that movie (only if you had watched the specials at the DVD or BluRay. I think it took me until the jump into the lake until I really understood what "geochaching" is all about.

epiceffectss I'm gonna start this by saying I actually quite enjoyed this. It's lo fi sci fi horror. It's not proper horror so your not gonna get a good scare out of it. But it was well acted and the premise for the story is OK. It's all centered around a harrp weather system which causes danger to our intrepid 4 young pioneers. It's fun and they girls are fit , some die , some live till the end. It was entertaining , and had this of been made in the eighties it would have stood up as a classic of the time , of course nowadays things have changed. Oh and must mention that it is German , which made it a bit diff for me , girls were so hot , omg...
