Behemoth

At times, this movie looks and feels like the slickest horror film you've seen all year. Amazing VFX, awesome sound design, and a cool score. But then some bad acting or crappy dialogue breaks the spell. For a no-budget horror, it mostly works, so I'd say it's worth a watch.

I have watched 38 min and the only reason is because I spent $5 for the rental. I keep hoping it will get better. The acting is bad, the story is bad. I just don't get it. If I could leave 0 stars, I would have.

Low budget, but pretty dope little indie horror. Last 30 minutes is nuts, with some gnarly monsters.

...but could have been much, much worse, considering the supposed budget of $65,000 for a movie like this.

The story manages to be captivating enough even if it isn't completely original. The mystery element is compelling enough even if it seems simple by the end. The effects they managed to pull off on this kind of budget are beyond impressive.

The movie has its faults but the only thing that really seems to drag it downward is the acting. Our leading man is by far the worst but there isn't much acting here that I would call adequate. With some better actors this could have been a 6, maybe even a 7, but the amateur hour was nonsense. I understand that it is difficult to find the best actors on such a low budget but surely there was SOMEBODY better out there.

Anyway, this director shows promise and I look forward to seeing where he goes from here.

Sort of like a poor man's Constantine, but without the benefit of a star to carry the movie. Surprisingly slick for an indie horror. The script could have been better, and the acting was really uneven, but the pace, vfx, and bad guy made up for it. Starts slow but picks up a lot of steam by the end.
