Showing in local theaters only now, this 2009 film has been re-titled as "Revenge of the College Ghost." From that cheesy awkward title and the awful poster of zombie-like ghosts, you knew instantly this was definitely going to be a B-horror flick. And surely enough, you get exactly what you imagined.

Let's pick on the new title. First, there is "Revenge". A mistreated girl Angela seeks revenge on the kids who were cruel to her. Of course, these kids die one by one in all sorts of violent gory ways. Then there is "College." This is a teen horror flick. But the kids here were high school graduates, just about to go to college. And then there's "Ghost." Angela's ghost was awakened during a juvenile spirit-summoning game the teens played in a cemetery, and she wastes no time to exact her revenge.

The only aspect I liked in the story is how after each character was killed, he or she was somehow erased from everyone else's memory (except for the lead character Sandy, who used to be Angela's best friend). This of course made poor Sandy look like a raving lunatic to the people around her. Aside from that though, everything else was run of the mill teen horror, from the sexy girls to the gory deaths. The actors were all unknown, generic and acted in a campy manner. The ghosts were portrayed in the style of Sadako in "The Ring" with jerky movements, only here they acted like they were in the "Thriller" video. Maybe good for a temporary shallow thrill. Do not expect too much.

I decided to finally watch Forget Me Not today and I must say it was better than I expected.

I enjoy all types of horror movies and I have seen quite a bit in my life and this is something new to me.

I haven't seen this type of story used in any horror movies I have seen yet and I did enjoy the plot and the characters were played nicely.

I gave this a 6 because some of it was predictable as most horror movies are but all in all I liked this.

Not sure if purchase worthy but for sure a rent.

Now this was a pretty out of the Hollywood mold for teenage horror movies. It had everything you expect from a standard teenage horror movie.

The story isn't bad, don't get me wrong. In fact, the story was actually quite nice, and had a good constant flow to it, so you weren't left bored. Now, what makes the movie halt a bit is the predictability of every single scene. Everything here is by the Hollywood-book. You see everything coming a mile before it actually happens.

The acting in the movie was fairly good, though I am not really familiar with any of the cast. But still, they did a good job.

As for the apparitions, or whatever they are supposed to be, well they look pretty cool and move in a nice way as well. Now what ticked me off was whatever that was going on with their mouths. Every time I saw one of these apparitions I was laughing because of the mouth. So it was a bit hard to take them seriously.

Now, with the supernatural touch of the movie, this is a little bit more interesting than your average standard teenager horror movie. But it is dangerously close to being just another mediocre type.

Watch it if you like teenage horror movies, but don't expect to be scared out of your seat. There are some nice deaths and effects, but that is about the size of the fireworks.

Forget me not is an interesting attempt at making film that mixes traditional teenage American horror with a ghost story influenced by recent Asian cinema. You get a cast of teenage characters not unlike what you could find in a Final Destination sequel, mixed with a ghostly threat not unlike what you could find in a Grudge/Ring spin off.

The plot development pertaining to the Ghost is actually well done, and the flashbacks featuring our teenager crew when they were younger are interesting, in fact more so than they are in the present.

Unfortunately, what really kills this movie is crappy direction. There's really no attention to details, the actors (far from A-list) were obviously not guided very well either. Early in the movie, we see a girl throwing a necklace in a lake, moments later, she is seen clearly wearing it in a crappy edit that lasts but 2 seconds but leaves you wondering how stuff like this could be missed. From that point in the movie, you have to accept you're going to kill time watching an uninspired direct-to-video or turn it off.

I went with it and must say the basic premise and general plot could have made for an interesting movie. I don't regret watching this. I only regret seeing lots of high ratings by horror fans. As long as horror fans will be undemanding and accept to be short changed, producers will cut corners and deliver films which, like this one, needed a lot more work before being released.

In the end, do not expect much scares from this. But if you are a horror fan and want to see a mix of Asian and American horror, then maybe director Tyler Oliver's botched film will be enjoyable.

This is so bad. Unimaginative story, annoying characters, horrible acting. It is an insult to the genre to call this horror.

So a bunch of obnoxious teenagers are having the best time of their lives. We are supposed to think that they are having a lot of fun having parties, sex, alcohol and drugs but to me it looks shallow and boring, sad actually.

Then bad things start to happen and annoying characters are killed one by one by some ridiculous looking creatures. Nothing scary here, no suspense, no chill.

After we've seen quite a few of these pointless deaths (which was also an opportunity for these so called actors to show that they cannot act)- the grand finale and a very thin explanation of what was happening and why. Not much imagination here.

Watching 'Forget Me Not' is a waste of time. Avoid it please.

I saw the rating on this and wasn't sure I should bother, but I went ahead and watched it and I'm glad I did. The plot is interesting. I'm happy to see that there are some original ideas out there yet for horror, and it isn't all remakes. The acting wasn't bad, I really enjoyed the plot, and the effects of the creatures in it were awesome. I actually yelled once out of fear, and that rarely happens. Pleasantly surprised at how much I enjoyed the film, having never heard of it or heard about it. It's not the greatest horror movie of all time or anything, but it's worth a watch as long as your expectations aren't too high.

Take a creepy nursery rhyme ala Freddy Krueger, throw in a pack of adolescent horny youth, some Asia-style broken jointed ghosties. Mix together and sprinkle with some Final Destination deaths. Add a side of cemeteries, An instant winner... not. A group of senior friends inadvertently evoke the ghost of a long forgotten girl named Angela. Soon a mysterious series of deaths occur. The memory of the murdered person is instantly erased. Except for Sandy (Carly Schroeder), who is the sole person alive to remember their names.

A tired directorial execution of an idea, which really didn't convince me in the first place. The blatant formulaic approach in selling a teenage slasher story short of any real concept failed to catch attention. The prerequisite cascade of deaths fail to keep attention and the all engulfing hunch that you've seen this scene before assuredly does this movie no favours. There were a couple of sensible ideas roaming around somewhere within the wooden acting (save for a instantly appealing Cody Linley) and uninspirational heartless death scenes fail to make up for the borefest. The movie has little to no suspense throughout and basically goes from death to death in a by the numbers fashion. Anyone counting on a final payoff twist will be left aghast at how terribly the roof scene was executed.

Special effects are decent, especially in regards to the ghostlies (however generic they may be), but all in all nothing worth spending time and money on given the onslaught of better movies from Asia.

Yes the movie is heavily clichéd and the acting in some areas is more than weak as well as a less than impressive start but I can see an effort to be unique is on display here. The movie starts off like most generic slasher films with a cast of beautiful unknowns who just recently graduated from high school and throws a huge party, get drunk, have sex and after everyone leaves a handful of close friends decides to drive to a cemetery and play a silly game that's like ghosts in the graveyard. A mysterious girl then appears and wants to play with them and they let her, then things turn for the worst. To me from there on the movie gets way better with effective kills and a way more effective dragging a victim to their grave underground than in Drag Me To Hell, terror and suspense also come and maybe a too complicated plot and story for its own good but I give it kudos for trying to be ambitious. The acting too for some reason gets slightly better and far less annoying than it was in the beginning with Carly Schroeder from the indie film Mean Creek stealing the show. The film never gets truly terrifying and the zombie like ghosts though at some points creepy and scary were mostly not effective enough and seems too similar to the killer ghosts in Asian ghosts flicks of the past and they could of done better in that department but for a limited budget they weren't half bad either. The twisted shocker of an ending which they all had it coming was very effective to me and kept me from giving it a lower rating but I just wish it had a better first half and setup like it did in the middle and last half and because of that it was uneven and it also could of gone further with its interesting premise. Overall it's like Prom Night meets I Know What You Did Last Summer meets Tormented and at that was an entertaining watch if you have nothing better to do or watch. Rent it! 6 out of 10

First of all, if you actually enjoy this film and you are over the age of 18, you should probably raise your artistic standards (for lack of a better phrase)just a bit. This movie suffers from a number of problems,not the least of which, are its bodacious use of clichés and flat-lined characters that we have all seen hundreds of times (and probably better executed)over the years. The actual story had potential in the hands of a competent film maker,and the special blood effects were pretty well done. HOWEVER, the awful monster effects are something you can see on any youtube facial transformations videos and FAR sub-par for a so-called movie. I hated the majority of the one dimensional characters immediately,and the only one I was convinced might have been modeled from a realistic personality-type was the younger brother. From the exaggerated, MTVish usage of the terrible soundtrack to accentuate the recklessness of the 'typical teen' archetype, to the bogus reactions of the characters in various situation ( see: the cop and his daughter...yeah riiiiight)this movie utterly fails. I'm pretty sure any real horror fan with access to a laptop and track board could have made a superior production. Seriously, if you are able to make it through this entire nonsensical movie I commend you for your resilience and shake my head at your having voluntarily wasted your time on this turd of a movie.

Min. 23:54.... Girl throws ring in pond....minutes later after she walks away from the car....it's still on her neck. Editor ...you suck ! I'm probably the only person who caught this.

Yeah I enjoyed this horror movie. Good acting and kept me on edge. But did not see the connection with the young girls nose bleed and two of tombstone with Ford and dodge. American car companies. What was that all about baffles me. Jacey out. Rock on.

I'm a horror movie fan and always try to give a chance to every single movie that isn't highly popular. First of all I didn't have great expectations so this might be a reason why I liked the movie. The effects were fine. The subject keeps you concentrated. And when you give something emotional to a horror movie it makes the movie more compelling. I think that the leading actress wasn't all in there. I'm sure she tried her best but she could do better. Other than that I think the cast was coherent. If you're a horror movie fan you'll like it but won't love it. If you're not into these kind of movies and get easily scared you might not watch it till the end.

I completely agree with modgirl-3. Everything you said was so true. Yeah the four brunette girls in the movie looked very similar. It was a good film apart from the cameraman's shaky hand and the acting was on point. The lead girl was very good, she carried the story well. Definitely an original idea which you don't see in horror films nowadays. Very different, very interesting and clever in how it was presented. I found myself urging to get to the end to find out what was going to happen. It's obvious it didn't take a lot of money to make it, but sometimes the lower budget movies are so much better than mainstream titles. It really is worth the watch.

A very good, scary movie. Better than what I was expecting from an Indie film. The special effects were actually pretty good. It was fairly predictable, but it was still frightening. The ghosts, or monsters, or whatever they were, did a very good job of being scary, from the way they moved to the sounds they made, to the way they looked. The ending was a nice little surprise, definitely breaking from the predictability of the rest of the movie. The acting was sub-par; better actors could have made this a really good movie. But as it is, it is a good movie, definitely worth watching if you're looking for a horror flick you've probably never seen.

FORGET ME NOT is the story of eight high school friends who share a terrible secret. Sandy (Carly Schroeder) seems to be the only one who is aware that her friends are disappearing one by one in grisly "accidents".

Viewers know that something supernatural is afoot, especially since each new victim is stalked and killed by a growing number of hellish ghouls. Adding to the mystery is the fact that the survivors have no memory of the ones who have just died.

Appearances are deceiving as the secret finally comes out, revealing the motivation behind the macabre action.

An effective horror movie with a novel plot...
