At the End of Eight

This movie is so low budget, so poorly acted and so bad... so bad it's almost good. If you are rating based on fun, this gets more than one star! Come on, one star reviews! I read in one review they made this for under $5000 and you can tell. But it was $5000 well spent. The premise of the movie has been done before, but there's an interesting twist to it and it is not in the least bit boring. The "villain" Macbeth is actually very well played by this actor. Actually you can see the potential in most of the actors here. It's not necessarily bad acting, but purposely played off that way. And how can you not love a movie where instead of running out the front door, they actually do run upstairs? It's too corny not find some joy in the ridiculousness of it all. The movie never tries to be something it's not. Although I do get the undertone of current society's reliance on social media possibly leading otherwise innocent people to ensue in mayhem, etc. Not an original idea, but there is a platform here. Even the part with the ripped shirt... it doesn't come off as "oh, give me a break" in a bad way. It's actually endearing. I'm not going to give a summary of this thing. Others have already done it. But honestly, it's a good mindless watch if that's what you're looking for. And the director (who also acts in the movie) is alarmingly attractive. Would love to see more from him.

The concept was there: a contest to sneak into a house and stay there for 8 hours. "I see you" did it well, so they tried too. However, the movie just stumbles along, literally - the characters enter the house and stumble, and hit everything, making as much noise as possible! Oh, no big deal! I'm not surprised they were found. The "twist" raised it to 3 stars but i can't forgive bad audio editting (voice overs made me think this movie was a foreign film), nor the clumsey screen writing where they tried to advance the plot with weak dialog. I appreciate the motives of each character but not enough to like any of them. I was just so disappointed.

The first scene was well done, but unfortunately the movie went downhill from there. The rookie cast and high school direction resulted in laughable moments that were intended to be intense. Giving it three stars for the effort.

All people cry about anymore is how no one writes anything new and when they do, they don't like it. I loved the premise and honestly, it's a really good movie! For a $2,500 budget, the acting was decent and yes it's very low budget but good story that kept you guessing. It's a lot like don't breathe, another movie I love but has subtle differences. Not understanding the hate at all. A low budget wonder in my humble opinion.

I paid $1.99 to rent this and I overpaid by $1.99 At first it seemed ok because there wasn't much dialogue but once the "actors" started "acting" it went downhill fast. No budget. No talent. Ignorant story. I could see this as a high school film class production at best. I only finished it because I paid for it -had it been free I would have stopped once the "acting" started ugh. Drivel
