The Changed

Its a complete waste of time. The actors are doing a lousy job. Its very bad acting. Its bad cinematography. It reeks of being a b-movie. I liked The Invasion with Nicole Kidman and Daniel Craig and also Invasion of the Body Snatchers both the classic from 1978 and the one from 1993. This crap tries to be like them, but fails big time. I didnt even finish this utter b-movie crap. Avoid.

I recently watched The Changed (2021) on Tubi. The storyline follows a mysterious outbreak that transforms people into eerie, emotionless shells of their former selves. These infected individuals work to persuade others to join their ranks. A group of survivors hides in their home, capturing one of the infected in hopes of understanding their motives and finding a way out of their dire situation.

Directed by Michael Mongillo (The Wind), the film stars Clare Foley (Gotham), Tony Todd (Candyman), Jason Alan Smith (Before I Wake), Carlee Avers (Veronica Mars), and Doug Tompos (Masters of Sex).

While the concept shows promise, the execution leaves much to be desired. The movie heavily relies on a psychological cat-and-mouse game, with Tony Todd as the infected antagonist engaging in verbal battles with the uninfected. Though Todd delivers a strong performance and elevates the dialogue, the film suffers from its limited scope. Most of the runtime is confined to a single room, and the lack of dynamic action or meaningful interaction with other infected characters hinders the overall impact.

The infected design is solid and menacing, but the tension fizzles due to lackluster pacing and uninspired action sequences. The few shooting scenes fail to deliver the intensity the premise demands.

In conclusion, The Changed might appeal to Tony Todd fans, but it doesn't offer much beyond his performance. I'd score it a 3/10 and recommend it only for die-hard fans of the actor.

Everything about this movie was done very poorly. The acting, the script, the lighting, all horrible. Even the horror OG Tony Todd had a horribly boring character to play. Even if you're really bored, you'd be better off watching Nicole Kidman in Invasion. If you don't mind horror, an ultra low budget film done right: It Follows.

I don't usually write reviews for movies but when I saw the trailer for this movie I thought it was going to be so cool. Truly this was the worst movie I have ever seen - at least that I can remember.

Low budget doesn't even excuse the poor cinematography and terrible acting. Kim was probably the worst of them all though. She was so awkward, I don't know what they were thinking casting her. Honestly though, they were all terrible actors.

The movie was legitimately painful to watch. The odd camera angles were so bothersome to me. I kept thinking MOVE THE CAMERA. I don't usually even notice this kind of stuff in movies but it was THAT bad to me. The way this movie was filmed literally irritated me. I was getting fidgety watching the movie.. I just wanted it to end. If I were watching it alone, I definitely would've turned it off but the person I was with doesn't like cutting movies short.

The concept itself was alright I guess, but the storyline was terrible. It was just plain boring. There was no real buildup, the ending was so dumb and none of the characters were likable at all. I don't think I could find one good thing about the movie other than the general concept.

Definitely would NOT recommend watching this movie. Truly a waste of time.

This is the worst movie I have seen in a very long time! I have always liked the body snatcher genre, this is a joke though and you will be left wondering how you will ever get back the time wasted on this garbage. Bad acting, bad direction, lousy story!
