The Waking

This piece of junk may have floated into the new release section of your local rental shop. BEWARE !!!! It is neither silly nor scary nor even cheseey. The movie is very much like the film "Coven" that the guys in American Movie were trying to get finished. Lots of smoke and many local actors featured in black capes and bad walmart halloween masks. Not bad if handled with a wink and a smile by the film maker. Problem here is that this piece of drek was done with a very heavy hand. Way too solem for it's own good. Do yourself a favor and avoid this movie at all cost. Do anything...read if you have too............ but stay away from this !!!

Aka "Keeper of souls"

Wish I could give half a star - this must be one of the worst movies, I've ever seen. The actors are awful, the filming is awful, the lighting is awful. Good story though, just a shame, that everything else is Terrible.

Within the first 5 min I was thinking, that this didn't seem like a good movie. I gave it a shot, but after 1 hour I simply gave up, my life is too short to watch the ending - maybe the ending is amazing - i don't know, i don't care. I rarely make reviews but this movie was so bad, that i had to spend some time on warning other people to not watch this movie. Go watch some paint dry instead, I promise you, you will feel your time was much better spent on that :D

I was able to see the movie "The Waking" at a cinema draft house in West Melbourne Florida about 8 months ago and I must say that it was very well done and I think that this film has the potential to become a cult classic. I cant wait to see it out in the box office.

Keeper of Souls (2001) is just another lame "straight-to-video" d.v.d rental floating around at your local major video chain. It's lying in wait for another poor sap to rent this waste of a perfectly good D.V.D. ROM disc. This "movie" itself is not worth anyone's time. Even bad movie lovers will skip this one. This is another case of film makers being banned for life for making another "movie".

Currentally, this feature length video is under the name of Keeper of Souls. You might even find it sitting in the new release section for some reason. If you're foolish enough to plunk down $3.99 for this movie, then they should take away your rental card and cut it in half. A "movie" filled with phony plot twists and a bucket full of red herrings all wasted for naught. Don't be fooled by the cool cover. This is one sign of a lame D.T.V. movie. If the cover is cool looking, stay away. A good movie doesn't need a cool d.v.d. cover. Don't say I didn't warn you!

Keep away, stay away, just run away!!!

Other than R.G Armstrong(who played "Franks" one of the Druids in Warlock: Armageddon - a cult fantasy movie from 93) you won't recognise a single person in this movie. Don't get me wrong i'm all for new talent but there's just no original appeal to this at all and it had the unfortunate added touch of reminding me of a Jim Wynorski flick, without the "is it or isn't it a porno" confusion of a first time rental victim.

This isn't even a B-Movie its just a collection of Bad actors talking to each other in that annoying "i know there's a camera in the room" way and running around in the woods for no apparent reason. I don't believe i'm going to actually say this but the Director Tim Card could have actually made this movie better if he'd have shaken the camera a few times and done a close up of some girls nose in a tent...Blair witch was better than this and it was crap...Don't rent it, don't even look at it and yes....i'm a harsh critic, but only because so much crap gets released onto DVD/video these days.
