Super low rent "Tales From The Hood" - AWFUL
8 August 2016
Warning: Spoilers
I know others have said the same before but there is no other movie to compare this to than the excellent low budget "Tales From The Hood." I expected something as good or even close but what a piece of garbage this is! It's very well filmed and I was excited in the first 15 min to see a good gory, fun movie. Instead, it just misses opportunity after opportunity to scare, entertain, present fun plot twists or anything else that makes a movie like this worthwhile.

What surprised me the most was NOT how poor the story telling was (although it was bottom of the barrel) but how absolutely beautiful the editing, cinematography, lighting and set design was. Such a shame that an investment of time and money was put into this when it lacks so much in writing and creativity.

Zero plot twists, zero screen play, zero fun!! Don't waste your time. If you're a fan of amazing low budget movies (like me), then get a hold of the movie "Favor". Wow. See my review on this if you want but either way, track it down and watch it.
