Ghostland (2018)

Best movie ever!

Beautiful, moving film.

In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.

Worth seeing just to witness how winsome it is.

I watched this film knowing nothing about it so I had no expectations. I think that's the best way to watch a horror. I nearly didn't watch it due to the % it got on rotten tomatoes, but like most horrors, the reviews never seem great. Where as in fact this movie was great!!! I think your own imagination helps when it comes to horror movies and mine is freaky. A horror like this could so happen in real life and that's the most terrifying part. Put it this way I made sure my doors were locked when I went to bed. My husband wasn't as freaked out about it as me, but he wouldn't give the film a second thought. I went to bed thinking about it and dreaming about it. I love a good horror and this was most definitely one. Give it a try.

Oh, my god! Absolutely horrifying. We bond with the family right away, including hating Vera, but then...Spoilers should not be allowed for this movie. It is new. It is different. It is not a dime a dozen slasher. It IS a psychological roller coaster. If it were not for the male inside of me constantly yelling, "There are weapons all around you. Use them. Kill them. Help your mom!", I would give it a ten. Well worth your time, and if you can figure out how only 1:31 has passed, then you win.

Coming from the director of the scariest movie in the horror genre this was such a disappointment on all fronts. So many shadows fill the screen so you can't see 80% of what's going on.The "scares" are relegated to jump scares that only startle you. Jump scares are annoying and a cop out to making a movie scary. Being startled does not equal scary. Your other part of "scares" are just gore scenes. They were done very well in Martyrs and actually added to the story, here it just seems like it was to check off boxes rather than lend to storytelling. A collection of some of the most dreadful bunch of female "actresses" that were hired purely on their ability to scream and wail rather than actually you know, act.Then you've got little taylor with her former non-scared face that sued the production because "she'll never work again". Her IMDB page says differently. Honey you're not getting roles, not for a scar on your face but for the fact you cannot act. Then you go on to sue the people who SADLY took a chance on you? You shouldn't get any roles, not because of the scar but because you're literally not able to act and are headed down the Katherine Heigl path of biting the hand that feeds you. Hope her lawsuit gets thrown out since she's had several roles since this supposed "career ending scar".Then we have some disgusting transphobic grossness which I never thought this director would do but here it is mocking us trans women. In the words of Rockstar from BB20... DISGUSTING! It was at this point I turned it off. The screaming, wailing and jump startles you can see coming for a mile for the majority of the movie was horrid enough to sit through but I will not continue watching something that mocks who I am. Bad form and totally disappointed the director would do this.To anyone that wants to make horror movies and is casting roles for the love of fake god STOP HIRING WOMEN JUST TO SCREAM FOR AN HOUR! And STOP bashing trans women. I'd give it a zero if I could. Totally disappointed in you Pascal Laugier.

ScreamQueens only all the way from start to finish Just. Do. Not. Watch. This.
