HOUSE OF THE WITCH - F
This film was terrible. It had absolutely nothing going for it. From a lazy, no effort given script to what felt like absent direction, this film fell flat in every category.
The script was uninteresting, cliched, boring, predictable & above anything else painfully unoriginal. It brought nothing new to the table. It felt like it took tidbits from a variety of sources in outright plagiarism, disguised as a what was supposed to be a horror film.
Did the director simply yell action and let the whole script be filmed from start to finish without ever yelling cut? Did he avoid giving his actors any motivation or direction? It sure felt like it. Was he even present during the editing process? "Let's take a lunch" resulted in him leaving and never coming back? Sure felt that way.
The actors in this film felt stale, obligated and as if they were as bored and uninterested in what they were doing as I was. There was no investment. Just people reading lines and going through the motions in what can't even be described as half-assed.
Even the music was pathetic. Not good at all. Horrible.
The tagline for the film should be, "If you thought the Blair Witch Project sucked..."
Do not waste your time.
