I read the reviews prior to watching this short flick and between them and overall rating >5, I thought I was in for a fun 60 minutes. Suffice it to say, I was wrong. If you look at my history, I have watched thousands of movies, written hundreds of reviews, and rated countless films. Most of the time I can find at least one small facet of a film, no matter how unenjoyable, that prevents me from rating it a '1.' That was not the case here.
This was terrible. The acting was bad, the special effects were non-existent (and by that, I truly mean non-existent...as in, they were not needed, as there was nothing even remotely catalogued as blood in the film, except when some folks vomited). There is no real scenery, as they used existing stores and buildings; there was no music other than some pre-packaged Halloween sounds; costumes? What costumes?
After watching, I re-read the reviews and not a single one (except the one "poor" review) held any truth about the film. I don't even mean subjective opinions, but the things people mentioned in reviews didn't even happen in the film. In other words, the majority of reviews are fake.
Truly a first for me. A movie without a single shred of positive opinion from me. And I consider myself a rather forgiving viewer. This was the first film I've rated a 1. Don't say you weren't warned.
