Unhuman

When I sat down to watch the 2022 horror comedy "Unhuman", I hadn't even heard about the movie. I didn't even know what it was about. But since I hadn't already seen it, of course I opted to give writers Marcus Dunstan and Patrick Melton's movie a chance.

And I will say that the movie was sort of semi-adequate. I mean, I figured this was a zombie movie outbreak, from what was going on there on the screen. Now, it wasn't the most impressive or most entertaining of zombie outbreak movies, but it was fairly watchable for what it was.

Now, then when director Marcus Dunstan finally revealed what was going on, about an hour into the foray, the movie went from being semi-adequate to being utter rubbish. The whole flip and switch of storyline events was just a slap to the face with a cold, dead fish. In fact, it was so stupid that I didn't even opt to finish watching the movie. Now, I will not reveal what was going on here, as you have to watch it for yourself.

It should be noted, however, that the effects in the movie were actually fairly good. But special effects can only do so much for lifting a broken movie.

"Unhuman" started out okay enough and was watchable enough, right up to a certain point and then everything just came crashing down. And believe you me, I have no intentions of returning to finish watching the rest of the movie.

My rating of "Unhuman" lands on a three out of ten stars.

The movie is plagued by a tired idea everyone has already seen in dozens of other movies. Within the first ten minutes of the film, the viewer knows who the villains are and who the heroine is.

Fresh young faces, the lack of tedious CGI, and fairly decent production values combine to do a good job of holding the viewer's interest, but aren't sufficient to make this into a good movie. Still, it's great to see young filmmakers get a chance like this one, and I hope this group makes a better movie next time.

As for this film, the company should start with a better script, better editing, and better zombies.

The plot of the movie was basic and not interesting, at all. Eventually, the plot of the movie has nothing to do with the movie. The storyline was kinda clever, but there were some plot holes. The execution, wasn't successfully done. The characters were basic, not well-developed and uninteresting. The location of the movie was just okay, just a big abandoned building. The cinematography was just okay, it reminded me of a YouTube video style, lol. The kills were AWFUL, most kills were off-screen and not bloody at all. It wasn't scary and the jumpscares were predictable. The casting was nice and the acting was descent. The plot twist was totally unexpected and it was kinda good.. Overall, it was a low budget horror movie, kinda innovative, but it wasn't well-developed.. The ending scene was unexpected. I don't think a sequel is needed. Actually, I don't think they're gonna make a second movie.

What started off as a typical cheesy teen horror movie that would be serviceable for B flick horror fans turned into a nightmare itself. Clearly this director tried to follow suit with other Blumhouse directors by turning up a huge plot twist for its audience but instead turned up an epic fail of direction, execution and any sense of practicality for even a Zombie flick.

We learned that this was another attempt at cool for poor Blum. Sad thing is I still have faith in the man that he will eventually get it right again. Hell, if I didn't have faith I would not even finish watching any of his movies. Overall the story was original but any movie that has time for stupid chit-chat instead of actually running away, just pisses me off! Dumb and dumber is what I would classify this one as, then the thought that they are even thinking about making a pt. 2 is just confusing to me. When you are thinking of making a pt. 2 at LEAST make the first one GOOD! Maybe it was an age thing but this movie just sucked for me. Please Blum, if you ever just need someone to tell you if your movies suck or not before releasing them just hmu. I have no problem in being completely honest with you! @53x13_M3x13.
