Curse of Crom: The Legend of Halloween

Watched this movie because the story sounded fun and the cover looked cool. The movie lacks good acting from it's 2 main characters, although they still did a decent job. Scenes went on longer than they should have at times.

It also suffered from some pacing issues. They tried to add more depth to characters when they really didn't need to.

I would recommend this movie to someone who is trying to ease their child or friend into the horror genre.

Props to actor Halem Medina who played Steve and Monica Moore Smith who played Stephanie. They were the best 2 actors in the movie in my opinion.

"Curse Of Crom" had a lot of potential I just think it wasn't executed as well as it could have been.

A little spooky, a little cheesy, and a lot of fun to watch. There are parts that will be scary for young children, but for the most part it is a fun, spooky, family friendly Halloween movie. Comedic relief is scattered throughout One of my favorite parts is when a scared teenage guy pauses to grab his food off of the table before running off to hide, but leaves his cell phone behind. My son would totally do that.

If you're looking for a serious scary movie, this is not it.

If you're a parent looking for a "safe" Halloween movie for your kids, or anyone looking for something good, clean and not dark (albeit spooky and with demons) to watch, this is your movie.

Out of respect for the people who worked on this low budget piece of crap movie, I give it three stars. But literally everything about it was terrible. If my review below won't convince you not to watch this movie, suit yourself, but I had to rant about how bad this was to get it out of my system :') which is also a sign of how extremely bad it was.

Music/backgroundnoises sounded like a child on a spooky synth keyboard. Acting so horrible it makes you physically cringe. The acting by the two main characters (the girl and boy teens) isn't the worst I've seen in lowbudget, but everyone else had the actingskills of a pornstar. The characters say the stupidest sht and do things in the strangest way, so the script seemed like a 10 year old's fanfiction... And the unnecessary family drama sideplot was so ridiculous!

The story sounded cool, an ancient Irish demon/monster chasing a bunch of teenagers. Original, sounds fun, you don't see many Irish demon movies. So I started watching, but immediately felt that typical low budget "acting is wooden and everything looks as if it's filmed with a cheap phonecamera" kinda thing. I looked it up on imdb and saw it got a 5,8 - not that bad for a B-horrorflick, I thought, because horror movies are generally rated lower than other genres - and (rounded up) a 6 usually means the movie isn't great but it's not bad either. Oooh, was it bad!

It was a fun ride but watching 30 something actors playing scared high schoolers takes the edge off the spooky vibe. The monster is kinda cheesy, but the atmosphere is set up pretty well and the climax moments are pretty effective. For a no-name semi professional production company it was worth watching! The acting was pretty good and fairly believable with the main character being played convincingly by the lead actress. The only wooden portrayal seems to have come from the lead male actor who looks to be the oldest teenage in cinematic history who also seemed to be oblivious to the pretty overt love triangle that becomes apparent within the first ten minutes of the movie.. Sorry I watched it? No, not at all. Would I watch it again? Heck no!

I liked it. It's definitely not the best Halloween horror ever, but it's in an almost friendly and understated way entertaining. This is mainly thanks to the often deadpan humor with according funny dialogues and situations, and the overall good acting by the main cast. Chelsea Jurkiewicz is endearing as intelligent and exasperated Mary; Tanner Gillmann as bff Harvey is an absolute comic talent (and cute as a puppy!); and a special mention to Monica Moore Smith as the pristine and bewildered Stephanie. The story itself is a bit farfetched and complicated (an ancient Halloween demon pops up for some reason and has to be destroyed), but the sinister atmosphere with a ditto score is very effective. When the monster itself appears it's almost like looking at an ancient 60's horror flick, with someone in rubber suit in stead of topnotch CGI, but somehow that did't mar my appreciation, it gave it all a pleasant retro feel.
