With Halloween just two days away, I decided to kick back
and relax and see what I could find on Netflix. There are some flicks that I
have passed over in the past, but could slide in this week. Before I get to my
review for 7 Below, I would be remiss if I did not mention the passing of
former Velvet Underground front man, and punk poet Lou Reed. Reed was an
inspiration for me, and his CD, The Raven, is a perfect soundtrack for
Halloween. Here is a sample.
Plot/ a group of strangers are trapped in a time warp house where a terrible event transpired exactly 100 years prior.
Now I know why I had bypassed this flick for so long. This
one was not really worth the time I invested in watching it. A thriller, this
one suffers from some head scratching flaws. From poor scripting and dialogue,
to terrible sound quality, to uneven performances, this one scuttles the small
creativeness allowed for in the storyline before it can get started. More
importantly, as a ghost story, it truly falls flat and produces nothing more
than a slowly paced and boring thriller. If you are reading this stay away…
Stay far away.
