Reverb

This movie started out slow which is why I only rated it an 8 out of 10. Most movies aren't like this these days. Most movies are either rip offs of older movies or are completely cliché and dull. This movie was well worth my time. I'm glad I took the time to watch it. I realize this movie got some bad reviews but not everyone agrees. If we did, wouldn't life be rather dull? Once it got going it kept me on the edge of my seat. I actually jumped and shrieked a few times through it. And the ending, wow, SURPRISE! I would recommend this movie. This movie would be even better as a book. If you like psychological thrillers, horror, and supernatural genres, this is the movie for you. But don't take my word on it. Watch!!!

Okay, so I love a good horror movie. And I don't mind a few clichés. But what I hate more than death or taxes is goofiness. American horror too often goes for the goofy or the gross-out, and a lot of whatever genuine creepy you might get out of the concept is dissipated by the Beavis & Butthead-level jokes.

Reverb has none of that in it. What it does have is a somewhat standard horror trope--think _Cigarette_Burns_, if you've seen it--played absolutely straight for all the chills it can muster. There's a good performance by the female lead, who I hope to see more of. There's also some fine camera work (the lighting of the studio is a natural) and a nuanced bunch of cheap audio jump-thrills.

Now there are some plot holes. For instance, who might have been holding the camera in a pivotal bit of video (nobody mentioned could). There's also an awful lot of yelling at the screen, 'Just get out! No, dude. Just get out!' But I'll forgive a lot for a genuine chill or two, and I got them.

I don't know what movie the last reviewer saw, but this one's a pretty effective and moderately original bit of Brit-horror. 8/10, because frankly, low-budget horror has a pretty low bar.

A rock band prepare to record their comeback album by locking themselves in a recording studio overnight.They sample an old recording which turns out to hide a mysterious voice that opens a gateway to Hell."Reverb" was currently released in Poland on DVD,so naturally I wanted to give it a look.Unfortunately the film left me disappointed.The premise of "Reverb" is actually pretty interesting,but its execution is unsatisfying and rather dull.There is no suspense,just a lot of quick cuts,even the amount of grue is minimal.Overall,I didn't enjoy this film as much as I wanted.Still if you have enough time to kill give it a chance.5 out of 10.

I am a really big fan of British movies, i think they have a slight edge over our American counterparts in the fact its all about the imagination and what is not there.

However, with Reverb; i was disappointed and didn't feel anything for the characters at all. Not much going on about the music or the reason behind all the crazy actions, it just is. I like a little history to why it all began in what i watch, it gives me a sense of understanding.

All in all it is an okay flick, for an hour and 23 minutes you could find your mind wondering as slowly chaos takes over. The pace is a little slow for my liking although the acting is good but i feel that something was still slightly missing from it all.

It is no Deathwatch or 28 days later but still an okay movie.

Apparently, the evil spirits have Sharpie markers. The premise of evil in a recording is decent, and hasn't been done to death. The acting and production aren't awful. The script and execution destroy this movie. Completely flat and boring, relying heavily on imagery. I couldn't wait for it to be over.
