Min anoigeis tin porta

This is my first review, so if the movie motivated me to write one means that the movie did something wrong. First of all let's begin with the good aspects of the movie. Lighting and in general the picture was quite good. The sound didn't make you feel that you were watching a horror film. Now about the plot... Was there any? The female lead was quite good but that wasn't enough to make a horror film. The film felt quite repeating. Some scenes were too long too long even for the dramatic effect that they were trying to achieve. The movie was decent for the first try. But definitely it's not worth the 8+ that all the people above me are giving it.

Judging it as viewer and not as a fan.

The movie was as expected from such as small crew with no experience on this field. Predictable story outcome, static images, not a lot of camera movement, same/similar shots etc. I don't know if there is an influence from all the horror games you've played, but I could see a pattern here. Definitely, the movie needed more characters and also, a little bit of faster dialogs, it was way too dramatic and at some point you start getting bored because you can predict what's coming. The sound design was exceptional for me and overall, I would say it was a very very good try for the first time.

Generally, it was different approach on this genre for this country and it is worthy to go check it out.

Aim big, go bigger!

Best of luck to the next one!

I hope the creators read this cause this text can only help them and make them better. I'm dividing it into bullet points to make it clearer.

Image: Maybe the best part of the movie, excellent colors and the forest just bangs.

Sound: The synth of the theme is strong, although it sends you a little towards cyberpunk. The rest of the sounds are reminiscent of the previous videos on YouTube, which is not good, a big movie is something else and should be treated as such.

Actors: This is where the trouble begins because the acting is below average. The way the actors speak is like kids do in school plays. Cringe af & very amateur. Let Karatzas teach you boys.

Screenplay: The film's biggest problem. The script is indulgently bad. Empty, slow and monotonous. From it, I remember the music and two illuminated faces, nothing else, because there is nothing else. A haunted woman and a man with guilt for his son's death. I expected at least an explanation at the end of the movie for it to make sense, but didn't even get that. Guys, it's not enough for the idea to slap in our own mind and containing a ton of symbolism. The viewers are not mediums and abstraction without limit is very bad.

Btw, what nostrils does Fotini have, you softies, in a low shot of Alex, I almost fell in lmao.

That's it in short. Take note and differentiate yourself in the future. Leave the horrors and the pitch-black nights and do something more lively and out of what you're used to. Differentiate the style you have had until now on youtube and you will not lose. And something very important: stop drowning in the adoration comments from all over the country. I saw such stupid comments from such stupid people praising the script. This will keep you stagnant and hurt you in the future. All the praise should go to the effort.

Beside the result itself you managed to create a wave of energy along all the theaters in the world and thats amazing. That's why we love you.

See you next time, friends.

I have been following UH since 2018 and their growth in the matter of film shooting, editing and composing has gone to extremely high levels. This movie proves that. However, it should not be viewed as your average horror movie. There is deep symbolism and underlaying themes, motifs that the Karpas Brothers have shown in their previous short films "Lurking Near" and "Breakfast". The only problems with the movie for me were the way dialogue was delivered and the unnecessary number of long takes, accompanied by black screen. Overall, it is the best possible setting stage for Greek horror movies yet to come.

First I want to say that I am their fun and I have seen all the videos from the guys for years. I don't miss a single one of their livestreams.

Positives: unbelievably good cinematography by Alekos with incredible shots that I actually expected. The actors' performances are very good with the one of the bright one standing out. The music and sound gave me quite a chill.

And this is where the negatives start: The script and plot border on mediocrity as it was nothing we haven't seen before. You put in supernatural events happening that didn't even depend in the movie. At one point I started laughing and in a scene with the bright girl we all know who she is now. The ending wasn't predictable the truth is because it simply didn't even make sense. I didn't connect with the characters in the movie at all because I think there were more scenes and dialogue missing as far as their back story is concerned. Guys really the ending was something I can't forget. It felt like you guys wanted to get it over with and really send it.

Conclusion: The film was a good effort for the Greek horror scene. For God's sake don't expect it to be a generally good effort of world-class calibre like this. For 7 people who made it it is obviously the best you will see from a film by such people. ( Horror films have a small budget anyway ) I bet you could have done better and I bet you can do better because I don't think after that kind of support it's the only one you'll get.
