Fairaher The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.

BelSports This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.

Allison Davies The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

lucifuge2001 It is hard to know what works wrong for the movie: the story, the script, the actors, the editor, the continuity supervisor or the director. Probably the sum of all. There are a lot of fails in this movie but the worst is the story which left us with two hypothesis or there is not story from the beginning or someone kill it in the way. I hope to help and avoid others to lose time with this crap. There are a lot of better movies around for you to see. Happy trails.

tigerknightt This is one seriously engaging horror film! I have been guilty, even during some of the best films out there, hitting the "fast forward" button to get to the "good stuff" and skip past what I call "filler clips". You know, where John has a bagel with cream cheese and talks to the waitress about the meaning of life according to an insurance salesman. I'm like "can we please just KILL him already"! Can we look and see if there's a tiger in the bathroom...right NOW? Oh, look, there's a squirrel! Look at the clock...what time is it? Popcorn? It's very rare that I come across a film so captivating that I don't even care where the remote is because I'm completely sucked in. Lost in every moment. That was my experience with this film. It viciously grabbed me by the throat and glued me to the screen! An intoxicating nightmare I'll not soon forget!

BA_Harrison Three American fitties, Alex, Julia and Rachel (Ciara Hanna, Emily O'Brien and Jackie Moore), travel to Thailand in order to teach English to children (and to pick up sleazy British guys in bars for casual sex), but find themselves menaced by a Kumari, the vengeful spirit of a young girl who was sacrificed in a bloody ritual.Borrowing heavily from post-millennial horror hits The Grudge and Hostel, James Cullen Bressack's Pernicious is a wholly unoriginal torture porn/creepy girl ghost story that tests the patience from the word go. Its three central girls might look great in a pair of tiny shorts, but they're unsympathetic characters, behaving in an irresponsible manner that is bound to end badly; the torture element is suitably nasty with fine gore effects by Jerami Cruise, but it's nothing we haven't seen many, many times before; and the supernatural scenes are totally predictable and scare free, supposedly nail-biting moments including the old 'it's under the duvet' trick and the tried-and-tested 'bathroom mirror reveal' (yawn!).Just about bearable thanks to the lovely ladies (alas, no nudity!) and the gore (best bit being the shot of a pulsating brain in an old woman's crushed skull), but don't expect Pernicious to deliver anything remotely original.

Zebb67 Bad, buh-bad, bad, bad!!! Three young women travel to Thailand to teach young children (though they all look more like Victoria's Secret models forever strutting down a runway). Let's see, you have the irresponsible, horny blonde chick; the irresponsible, not-so-bright blonde chick; and the one smart, responsible chick (brunette of course--no cliché goes untouched in this cr*p). The chicks (I'm only using that word because that's clearly how the filmmakers view them) decide to party down before school starts, but it seems the house they are living in is haunted with...well, something or other. Some gory murders to wake you up, but since the victims are always tied down, there is no tension or suspense. Additional caveat for those interested: though the three chicks often prance around in their underwear and short-short shorts, there's no nudity. I guess they didn't want to lose their dignity. Why the rating for this garbage is not hovering around 2 or 3 suggests the cast and crew (and friends and relatives of both) were instructed to vote.
