The Ghosts of Monday

To ''the bad luck hotel'', most surtainly an experience weve all been dragged into once upon your lifetime, a hotel with bad vibes and bad omens , because the real estate of land, or as they call it in the mediterranean area, an ''imobillien'' or hypobank offers, where rinsed and caved out on an ancient gravesite, making the sleeping spirits of mortals wake up in anger, full of revenging vibes...just like a ghost...

this is not a spoiler of the plot, rather a thinking of my tank what the makers of this antiscare horror movie, with sudden flashes of sound and glimpses of something. Its a cheap financial project happening in a tv-series pace and style, and at the end you feel just as stupid as the caracters why you entered the show.

So ''let there be ghosts'', i do believe in the phenom,enon, but not in this bluesued shoe like highbrow circles of human kind. Its not scary, romantic, nor funny if youre in for that. A weak try, go somewhere else for your holidays thinks the grumpy old man.

About the only good thing about this movie is that Julian Sands was in it. A very promising premise, there are so many great directions this story could taken. Instead, it ends up being this weird slasher movie that really has nothing to do with ghosts. And the ending is...vague, at the very least. At least I can say I saw it? Hmmm. A review must have 600 characters. So I'll just add that I like the hotel's owners, even if that is the one predictable thing I guessed from the start. I've seen a lot of ghost movies over the years. I guess that's the thing about ghost movies- when one is bad, it's really, really bad!

A promising premise but no matter how forgiving your b movie taste is this is going to be a challenge. There nothing good in this movie. There I said it.

It has an interesting idea and a few influences (one of the characters is even named rosemary) but it all falls flat, directing is bad, the acting is ridiculous, I swear one of the actors is annoying on purpose! Even the sound is bad! An elderly couple enters the room- cue scare music, nothing happens. I have seen lots of horror, even b movies, and this is one of the worst I've seen. I give it 1 because of the hotel setting which could have been cool, but with absolutely no talented people on this production it's just all bad.

Well, I wasn't exactly harboring much of any expectations or hopes for this 2022 horror movie titled "The Ghosts of Monday", yet I still opted to see it. Why? Well, first of all, the movie has Julian Sands on the cast list, and secondly it was also a horror movie that I hadn't already seen.

Now, I am pretty amazed by the fact that Francesco Cinquemani, Loris Curci, Andy Edwards, Barry Keating and Mark Thompson-Ashworth could collectively manage to compile a script so mundane and bland. I suppose it goes to say that too many writers does not make for a particularly better end result.

The storyline in director Francesco Cinquemani's 2022 movie was bland. And as the movie came to an end after 78 minutes, I must admit that I was left with a sensation of 'was that really it?'. Yeah, this wasn't by any means a memorable or outstanding horror movie experience. It was watchable, sure, but you're not in for a stellar experience.

The acting performances in the movie were adequate. Nothing outstanding here really, but then again, the actors and actresses didn't really have all that much of properly constructed material to work with.

Visually then "The Ghosts of Monday" was adequate. Though, keep in mind that this movie is not heavily relying on special effects, so you're not going to be blown away by a display of grand CGI and practical effects. There were some effects here and there, and they worked out well enough.

"The Ghosts of Monday" is the type of movie that you watch once, then shelve it and never return to it a second time.

My rating of "The Ghosts of Monday" lands on a three out of ten stars.

The title should have been the entire review but as i am forced to write more about this trainwreck, so i shall.

Every cast member cannot act themselves out of a petri dish. Made for tv random movie has 10 times the talent that is used here. Every word is flat, literally read off a piece of paper. Faces are frozen in some i don't want to be here daze; dialogue itself is pitiful and the voices and even accents are annoying. They are just annoying; no other way to put it here. Every single thing about every person in this movie is annoying and bad.

So maybe well there is a story here to make up for it.. nope. Maybe something happens that keeps you engaged.. nope.

Just skip this. Save yourself. It has no redeeming features whatsoever. I was so petrified I could not even select the worst actor of the year. It all became a blur and i wished i were a ghost so i can hoover myself out of this through the nearest wall. Viewer beware.
