The Changed

Everything about this movie was done very poorly. The acting, the script, the lighting, all horrible. Even the horror OG Tony Todd had a horribly boring character to play. Even if you're really bored, you'd be better off watching Nicole Kidman in Invasion. If you don't mind horror, an ultra low budget film done right: It Follows.

The acting is bad. It's shot in bad video. The script is horrendous. I'm not sure if anything could be saved. On second thought, yes, there is: it's only 78 minutes long, which on the other hand, is way too long.

Anyone who rated this film high is probably a part of the production. I am insanely generous to give it a 3 (but I just got some better antidepressants from my shrink). Avoid absolutely. Ab-so-lu-te-ly!

There's a movie I started watching on Tubi a few years back that I made it maybe 10 minutes in and was done. I left my IMDB review on it but can't remember the name. There are some others as well. So, with that being written, I cannot say this is the worst movie I've ever seen.

After browsing through trailers, I found this one and said to myself, finally, my kind of movie. It looked like a pretty good movie. Seeing Tony Todd on the cover (clever move) and in the trailer, I just knew it was gonna be a great movie. It was also genred as horror. Well, to my not so shocked surprise, it was neither of those things. I'm not going to say too much more. There are enough comments before me that express my sentiments exactly. However, one thing I will say is, Jane I think her name is...that lady who played her and the character herself were absolutely irritating. She got on my everlasting nerve. Kurt was annoying as well. All the characters were typical, blah, blah. No character arch....look, I doubt they were aiming for the an Emmy so you get what you got and it is what it is.

I recently watched The Changed (2021) on Tubi. The storyline follows a mysterious outbreak that transforms people into eerie, emotionless shells of their former selves. These infected individuals work to persuade others to join their ranks. A group of survivors hides in their home, capturing one of the infected in hopes of understanding their motives and finding a way out of their dire situation.

Directed by Michael Mongillo (The Wind), the film stars Clare Foley (Gotham), Tony Todd (Candyman), Jason Alan Smith (Before I Wake), Carlee Avers (Veronica Mars), and Doug Tompos (Masters of Sex).

While the concept shows promise, the execution leaves much to be desired. The movie heavily relies on a psychological cat-and-mouse game, with Tony Todd as the infected antagonist engaging in verbal battles with the uninfected. Though Todd delivers a strong performance and elevates the dialogue, the film suffers from its limited scope. Most of the runtime is confined to a single room, and the lack of dynamic action or meaningful interaction with other infected characters hinders the overall impact.

The infected design is solid and menacing, but the tension fizzles due to lackluster pacing and uninspired action sequences. The few shooting scenes fail to deliver the intensity the premise demands.

In conclusion, The Changed might appeal to Tony Todd fans, but it doesn't offer much beyond his performance. I'd score it a 3/10 and recommend it only for die-hard fans of the actor.

Poor Tony Todd. He should not have to be involved in a stinker like this movie. It is pure amateur (except for Tony). Terrible, boring writing. Nothing happens. The dialogue is comical. Not even gold old Tony can save this amateur snorefest.
