Off to the good stuff first. * The killer clown is the creepiest and scariest i have ever seen. * Considering its budget, the cinematography, gore, effects and make up are outstanding. * The killings are amazingly enjoyable. In this part the movie does not hold back! * It starts out very promising.

Now for the bad stuff: * They kill the main actress at the half of the movie. So.... there is no one really to care about. * The killer clown could have EASILY been killed AT LEAST 5 times during the movie. Once you realize the pattern as a viewer (the clown hurts the victim, victim fights back, knocks off the clown, runs away, the clown re-hunts the victim), it becomes extremely boring and predictable. * They put supernatural stuff crap at the end of the movie, so the clown can be resurrected at any time, hoping the producers to have an easy sequel excuse.

The worst thing of the movie is the "pattern" as i mentioned. I ruins a movie that had the potential of becoming a cult classic.

Boring, boring, boring!

1. From the beginning you can see the movie tries very hard for character developing. And what is the best way to do that, by continuously having memories! Half of the movie is memories which adds to the boredom. It kinda gets the job done, but too many flashbacks boomeranged the purpose.

2. Very low budget. I don't mind for that, but the monster does not look real. Having said that i must admit they did their best for the given budget and the blood/gore was good.

3. Stupid decisions. Again, for a million time its one of those movies where characters actions make no sense. (SPOILER: Pretty happy the monster killed almost everyone. Idiots! Also, the monster outrun the ambulance, how the heck a little girl will outrun it and survive? Suriously, that is your best plan as a mother?)

4. They are supposed to be stuck on the main road. OK granted. Why the f*ck are there any other cars passing by? Not even one?

5. The final blow was just dull, uninspiring and unrealistic.

Overall the movie tried very hard for character development, but succeeded to bore me with too many flashbacks. It also tried to be "realistic", but the characters are just plain idiots. Do not watch the movie. Want something good and original? "Dont breathe" (2016) is an excellent one. Trust me.

This is an excellent example that a movie does not need high budget to be good and enjoyable.

Don't want to mention much, but be prepared for 1:30hr with only one house and 2 actors. That's it. So, having said that if you are the kind of type who liked "Burried (2010)" (only one actor in a coffin), and "The Triangle (2009)" (loop movie horror) then you will love this one. It combines these two films and does it perfectly well.

Keep in mind this is not a pop-corn movie, to watch with friends and comment the movie. You need silence, lights off, and your attention to it (no checking emails, fb, etc) otherwise it will be extremely boring and dull.

Did i mention this is one of the few "loop" movies that actually has an end? Yeah, this movie has an end, and a really good one!

This is a film someone is going to see for the CGI, we already know that.

Thing is, it fails in everything else! No character plot, no story, but most importantly Godzilla appears only 15-20min in total of 2:30hour movie, and with interrupted short fights! It kinda reminded me of Dark Knight Rises and Superman Returns, where you only have about 10-15min (at best) fight scenes. Finally when the fight starts with the two bugs, it is continuously interrupted by US soldiers trying to do their stuff. I did not pay to see US soldiers, but Godzilla!

Looking for a story? Well, the excuse of a new Godzilla movie is that Godzilla "must restore balance to nature, that's why he must kill the two bugs". Real movie dialogue! Go figure. At least in the 1998 movie it wanted to reproduce, that's why it surfaced. We had a reason for its appearance.

Overall, please ignore this insult to the Godzilla movie history. Still my best movie is the 1998, and i really do not know why reviews bury it. Prefer the original 1960's Japanese movies. They are so much better than this, and Godzilla fights much more, with extended screen time appearance.

Plot: long story short 2 friends end up being on a "true filming" bizarre thing where it must end somehow. It tries to be "original" but fails in all the aspects. Hey, it doesn't even have an ending, how nice is that!

First off all for all those user reviewers idiots here in IMDb claiming this is a horror movie, ITS IS NOT A HORROR MOVIE!!! Were the hell did you see the horror in this?

Additionally its core story is so small, that it gets filled with fillers all the time, introducing characters with no meaning in the movie (ex the salesman, talking with a chained guy, like these things happen all the time, so why worry about it?). If it was a short 20min film it might have been interesting. But 90min for this film is way too much.

This is one of the top 5 worst movies i saw in 2013, seriously flirting the 1st place. God why do they still make crap like that?

After reading all these good users reviews in IMDb, i thought i'd give a chance & watch this film. I didn't expect action, cgi effects, but really good script.

PROS: The truth is the actors get the job done, makeup is extremely good considering the films budget, music is also pretty good, and as for the script it keeps you till the end of the movie.

CONS: This film has only one flaw, and for me it ruined the whole movie, and that's its ending. Basically, it ends in a moment you didn't expect & as a viewer i expected to see at least 10-30min in order to clear things up & end with a conclusion. Any conclusion would be accepted at this point it ended.

Personally i hate films with no ending, letting the viewer thing whatever anyone wants, especially on films like this where possible scenarios left so wide open, making me thing that producers & writers are planning to make a sequel, which of course i will not fell on the same trap again & won't bother to see. If thats the case, the why bother seeing it from the first place?

I liked the trailer when i saw it & was waiting to watch this movie. First of all mistakes have happened even before starting the film: the trailer itself shows you the best 2 minutes that occur almost at the end of the film (main road with cars smashing everywhere) so this kinda sucks. OK now, the movie is REALLY slow! I mean come on, if you have nothing to show us, make this movie shorter. Don't torture us (ex) with 2 whole minutes watching the girl going from the house to the toilet. And there are many similar shots. Also have you noticed the movie is called "Children of the corn"? Well, damn me if you see children for more that 10' & there is no corn field at all! Story makes no sense at all after half of this movie and even before that you'll be bored by its extremely slow pace, things happen just to happen, and acting is not good with the exception of the husband doing excellent job on his role. I was left with one question during & after watching this film: why the heck producers did you even released this? Didn't you saw it first? This movie is terrible and a disgrace to horror films.

PROS: First part of the movie is clear enough of whats going on. Really good job by the "husband" actor. Liked the policeman's death & the smashed cars.

CONS: The movie's existence & public release. First part of the movie is really boring, second part makes no sense by any means. No corns at all (are you serious???). Slow pace in many parts for no reason. Ending levels up the "no sense" phrase to "i want my 1:30 hour of my life back & first thing if the morning i will sue the producers".

I like European cinema, i really do. And the producers of french horror/thriller films tend to create excellent atmosphere, effects & acting. This movie has all these i mentioned but, unfortunately nothing more. First 1/3 was interesting and wanted to see more. But as the film progressed i was getting bored, and at the end i couldn't care less about anything and anyone on this film. It lacked scenario and tried so hard to shine from the bunch of its kind, that failed miserably.

pros: as previously written effects, acting, atmosphere. cons: really bad "wannabe good" script, no character development, classic till "bored to death" ending.

First of all i'd like to mention from all reviews i read the best one is from user "dean2804" with whom i agree 100%.

Having said that, yes this movie is a mess. The good or the bad way? Well basically the mediocre way. Its 3 movies all presented in one: begins as a typical thriller with religious Christian psychos a-la "God hates gays so we kill them all", continues as a war/action and concludes as political.

The GOOD: nice work by the actors, camera, music, direction. Loved them all. Nice character development, not even one of them is a "random character just waiting to die" type. Really good job on changing the film from thriller/action/political without annoying the audience. Explains pretty much everything in the end, plain and clear.

The BAD: The "echo sound" at the end of the movie was useless & almost hilarious as an explanation. Simply put, just ignore it. Although liked the film & kept me till the end, i felt there was something missing. It was an OK film, but for some reason lacked the "wow" factor.

OVERALL: i'd suggest you to check it. You won't regret it and even if you don't like the whole film, at least you'll enjoy some of its parts.

This film has... nothing. Absolutely nothing. Extremely low budget without scenario, and some dumb twists (or they wanted them to be) to spice up this, uh, film. I expected it to be similar to "BURIED" (one man only for 1.5 hour putting yourself becoming one with the character), but no, this crap has nothing to do with that. Avoid it at all costs. I watched it on 2 "empty" hours on my job and still felt that i lost 1.5hour of my life! Prefer to see an episode from "the love boat" instead of this. And yes, you might find it too much, but this movie is THAT BAD! ---SOME NOTES FOR THE MOVIE--- 1. Almost 50minutes of the movie are just camera shots with literally nothing happening. 2. The main character actually does try & gets the job done, but there are so many flaws, that he just wastes his talent. 3. Don't want to add spoilers, and how could i since there are none to mention!

This is a "love it or hate it" movie. Obviously from the rating i hated it.

I must admit that it kept me from the begging till the end, just to let me down so much by its end. This movie starts good, keeps going really good, and after 60 minutes it goes way out of logic and sense.

Some rich people torture young females just to find out "what exactly" is on the other world? They beat the hell out of them & even put their skin out in order to make the young female see the other side. I mean, come on! And when a woman learns it at the end of the movie, she kills herself without informing the others. I mean what??? She says "keep wondering". Yeah, right. You kill people for the last 20 years, you finally know whats going on the other side, and your best decision is suicide. Well, that makes sense!

Not to mention where the girls kill a whole family, but yet they sleep on their beds like nothing happened. Or when a girl finds a prisoner, instead of getting her to the hospital or call the police, she just sleeps by the side of her dead girlfriend, letting the poor prisoner suffer by its wounds. Well, all of these make absolute sense!

I also don't know how some of you guys compared it with Hellraiser or Hostel. This movie has nothing to do with any of these films.

3 out of 10 just because (despite its flaws) it kept me till the end. -7 out of 10 because the end disappointed me very, very much.

Basically there's a family where a little boy (Jake) thinks there's a zombie in his closet & his parents are fighting all the time.

This movie is slower than a soap opera... and suddenly, Jake decides to become Rambo and kill the zombie.

OK, first of all when you're going to make a film you must Decide if its a thriller or a drama! As a drama the movie is watchable. Parents are divorcing & arguing like in real life. And then we have Jake with his closet which totally ruins all the film! I expected to see a BOOGEYMAN similar movie, and instead i watched a drama with some meaningless thriller spots.

3 out of 10 just for the well playing parents & descent dialogs. As for the shots with Jake: just ignore them.

simply because its THAT awful. This is one of those movies where you wonder "why" did they even bother writing it, and "why" did they even put money on it! In summary, there's just a guy who killed his parents, gone to prison, learn karate in prison (say what???), and after that tries to find his sister, but ended up somehow just trying to be the best on fights.

Did i mentioned the scenario twist? It makes you suffer 2 whole hours for a twist that's so pointless, and by the time they serve you this, you have no interest about the movie. His sister has killed their parents, now she works as a ho-re & sees his brother fighting.

No, i haven't read the original manga, but after this movie, i don't even have the curiosity to do so.

Overall, stay away from this movie as hell. 2 stars only for some semi-good fights, but even those are not special or something...
