As the Village Sleeps

Really every thing is at worst level..actings,plot cinematography etc.

Boring movie.

We open on a car pulling over to the side of a desolate road - the woman inside goes to bury something in the dirt and set it alight. Only to be disturbed and runs back to the car, the guy who was driving is missing and we hear ominous growling as she is dragged out of the car by an unseen force.

I went into this blindly and with that opening I assumed it was demons haha. I was wrong! What starts off as an indie film with questionable acting is actually a fun (bad but enjoyable once you find out what kind of bad) werewolf movie! Or is it?!

The main group are staying at a cabin on a Native Reservation when they decide to play a card game (I think it was either called Lynched or Townsfolk) which marks players as werewolves, civillians, a witch and a cat. Cut to the next scene where they're all waking up, seemingly drugged and realising that the game is real and they're being hunted. Through hazy memories and splitting up, some start to turn on each other, others banding together to try and figure out the mystery of whom the werewolf is to survive by sunrise.

I mentioned the questionable acting, and it is very questionable at that, however the werewolf makeup designs, film score and just plain wanting to find out who would end up being hunted next kept me watching.

As The Village Sleeps is out now on Prime Video!

Well this is an indie film worth watching! As a filmmaker, really enjoyed the cinematography and the tone. It felt a little like stranger things meets teen wolf as far as tone/vibe. Really enjoyed that. I love watching these gems as an indie filmmaker myself. Acting was on point for the material, it never takes itself too seriously and I mean that in the best way. Shots and lighting were really well done. I wont give anything away but, it has its twists, but also knows when to hone it in and let the characters work. For what they sought out to do, I thought they did a great job! Check this out!

This film does an excellent job at giving us a story we haven't seen before all with some very good actors. The Camera work was great I found myself pausing and rewatching several shots because I enjoyed them so much. I really enjoyed the music including the end credits song I'll have to find the name of the song. I really loved that they incorporated the werewolf card game into the film I don't think that's ever been done before. I give the film an 8/10. I recommend this film if you're looking for a good watch you won't wanna miss this. Good indie films don't get enough credit. I found myself on the edge of my seat throughout the film. I kept guessing what might come next. Loved the twists and turns.

All actors are act horrible... No plot,no scare,no stories. Like students' project which is very low budget. Better you you watch Mr. Bean again and again...
