Very good movie

 

[LoyaltyisaCurse]

Even more bonus points for being filmed in my hometown...they must have upped their tax credits.

 

[Shane]

I really enjoyed this. the first 30 minutes were fantastic

 

[Brian in Mesa]

We really enjoyed it. Very intense.

 

[cheesebeef]

this was one of the dumbest movies I've ever seen.

 

[Ouchie-Z-Clown]

I liked it.

 

[LoyaltyisaCurse]

It was decent. Though tough to truly gauge with a blindfold on.

 

[Mike Olbinski]

Garbage lol...bad writing...people running in forests without crashing into trees every 5 feet, the entire river........

And it wasn't scary at all despite the hype lol.

 

[ajcardfan]

this was one of the dumbest movies I've ever seen.

All you had to do to enjoy it was to get over the quandary why these powers that can get people to instantly suicide, or turn into murderers, cannot overcome blindfolds that admit some light and buildings.

Once you buy into that, it's totally cool!

 

[GatorAZ]

Would’ve rather watched it blindfolded

 

[Rivercard]

I liked it.

I agree with both of you actually. I thought it was kinda dumb overall but I still enjoyed it quite a bit.

Best part: cheese and I watched it together.

the simple son...

 

[Krangodnzr]

It was ok. Not even in my top five favorite horror movies this year.

Hereditary was the best.

Hmm I didn’t even really consider this “horror” but I suppose that’s where it likely defaults.

 

[Ouchie-Z-Clown]

You’re an idiot.

Seemed more like a "thriller"

 

[oaken1]

Got the SB on record... Watching this today

 

[oaken1]

The similarities are eerie... If i have to watch the patriots win another SB i will either kill myself or everyone in sight

Could've worn a blindfold and been more entertained than that crap superbowl.

makes me glad I chose to watch the movie instead.

 

[Bada0Bing]

I thought it was suspenseful and a bit scary. Better than most horror films these days.
