Baby Blue

The plot was great. I kind of knew that it would be a good movie because Anthony Turpel was there (and c'mon, look at him). But that suspense was WOW!. It was so hook grabbing that midway I almost forgot about Turpel and just enjoyed the film. I have to say the best part of these movies is the realism they bring compared to big Hollywood movies. They kind of create a documentary/curiosity feel that's never too tense so you can rest easy at night. However, I have never cursed (no pun intended) out so many people while watching a horror movie in my life. I wanted to punch each character in the face or become Baby Blue so that I can make them punch themselves. I really do praise the directors for articulating the best annoying hipster character they could. They deserve a raise. But other than that, really great movie. And there was no sarcasm in this review (literally) 😐.

Been wanting to start writing reviews. Not a slasher movie. More them trying to fix their mistake. Poor August. The first few minutes I was being critical to, and It doesn't take long to take off. It is entertaining, and keeps you watching. I'm sure this will be a cult classic one day. Tubis actually got a nice original. No I'm not a family member, or staff cousin. If there's a "little secret" behind the credits Tubi won't pop up a new movie. I know I just said I'm not a family member, but I wouldn't mind watching more of these lol. Got all here. Laughs, creeps, cool characters. 34 yo was a indie fan back in the day. Well I thought that was max character limits.... I personally thought it was great.

Honestly this was one of the best independent films I've seen in while. It truly had me jump a couple times and was well edited.

I wanted to watch this to see Cyrus Arnold. Loved him in Mr. Harrigan's Phone, and wanted to see him in a less mean role. He did amazingly! He sold it on the fear factor and just hit it out of the ballpark on his choices for his character's reactions.

The other cast members were great too! The siblings played well off each other. Baby Blue just was fantastic with his serial killer vibes. He kind of reminded me a bit of Ricardo "the Night Stalker" Ramirez meets Henry Bowers.

I am not sure what movie everyone else in the reviews watched, but it was not this one. I am willing to bet that the reviews praising it are either friends of if not the actual people who worked on the film, because besides cinematography, it was terrible. This movie is a amalgamation of several tropes that make other movies good, essentially trying to be 3 separate movies...and fails on all fronts.

The film references way better movies like "The Ring" and "The Shinning", the director stating something along the lines of this being a love letter to the genre... nope. As a mess of a film that can not seem to figure out what it wants to be, and can not seem to keep it's own plotlines coherent or consistent. Referencing or nodding to better films does not make yours any better. Even as a student film it would be subpar. The film attempts so many potentially great things, yet somehow can not deliver.

If "edging" was a movie, this is it. Go watch a classic horror, or a gritty crime drama. Would have rather put toothpicks under my toenails and kicked a wall than watch this again. Trash movie, garbage story, sad credit for all involved. Unfortunately, it isn't even a "The Room" kind of movie that is "so bad its it's good" and will becomes a cult classic. It's just plain bad in all aspects, besides the cinematography.

If it seems like I am ranting or hating on the movie, I am. I have no skin in the game, but the fact that this is my first review in my entire life, and the only film I walked away feeling like I wasted my time...that should say something.

The final scene was seemingly thrown in last second in hope's of a sequel, although fitting as it was a terrible ending.

This is a cross between Smile, It Follows, The Ring and even Barbarian believe it or not. It's also a combination of tech horror/found footage/reality. It's really unpredictable and well paced, thoroughly enjoyable film!

So for once Tubi puts its hat in the ring for a (probably licensed after finished) movie that's actually good! Yay!

The plot is simple, like many neo-slashers, this is about an entity that kills. For those that haven't seen it THE ENTITY (1981) is fantastic and ahead of it's time.

No spoilers, but the movie is quick paced, funny at parts and the plot is well constructed as well and has some good creepy and scary moments. 6.9/10!
