Karma

Seriously, how the hell have people given this travesty 8,9, and 10 stars? It's dreadful. I have no problem with the obviously low budget, many of my favourites have been made on small budgets. What is so egregious about this is the very low calibre acting and poor quality. Very unconvincing and almost amateurish. Also, for a slasher horror film that's supposed to be rated 18+, it was just not scary or even very gory. It feels like the writer wasted a decent premise on a very amateurish cast and director. I am extremely suspicious of the "glowing" reviews; they feel fake. No one who actually genuinely saw this film could have given such effusive praise.

Thought we'd give it a go as it had some good reviews. But, this has to be the worst film I've ever watched. The acting was terrible. Ive seen better at a secondary school. It was completely embarrassing. The camera work was awful. The sets were obviously too small in one scene as the camera had to film through a window to get some cast in. The sound was less that low budget. A scene filmed in a car was so quiet we had to switch on the subtitles. Filming on a mobile would have been better. The script was abysmal. The murderer killed people without getting a spot if blood on themselves, so those calling it a slasher movie, have never seen one. How this got so many 10/10, I can only imagine they were cast members. It's not even good enough to watch as a low budge film.

Karma is very well written and surprisingly funny! The film is filled with a cast that is able to effortlessly pivot back and forth between moments of fear and realism. Such instances make the film relatable to viewers and grounded in accuracy. Jas Banks showcases her writing fluency in a such a way that ensures that the cast can rely on what feels like natural reaction on screen. Providing a glimpse into what could be the actual reactions of the cast if ever dropped into a "Clue" type of scenario. Film keeps viewers on their toes in their guess as to who is under the very well crafted mask. But more than anything, the movie teaches viewers the lesson that Karma always comes back to bite you in the end.

I usually don't leave reviews but I felt compelled to do so in this instance because I feel as if some of the ratings and reviews are a bit exaggerated in terms of saying how terrible the film was. Yes the film definitely has its huge flaws and issues I agree. The sound quality is not the best and the camera man choices of shots particularly through the window in the first half of the movie was not a good decision. Considering this is a very low budget film and there are Hollywood productions with the means and resources to put out better films which they fail to do all of the time, I think this is a nice little first project. Once it gets past the first half maybe 30 mins in the film gets better! I saw a reviewer mention there was no blood on the killer and in slashers that's impossible he must not have saw the first prom night after the killer beheaded a person and had no blood on them as well as several other horror/slashers where the killer had no blood splattered all over them. I feel like some people are digging too deep into this as if it is a big Hollywood franchise😂 To me the project is a nice little 5.5 I have saw way worse films! The mouse trap, Winnie the Pooh, anything with Amy Schumer and many many others the only thing that makes this one stand out as worse than those is the window shot! That is one of my biggest issue with the entire film honestly it was very distracting and made the first half of the movie seem so long, a little boring and drug out. Some of the actors were a little over the top, some things could have been better but the film was amusing to us and the ending was good. Give it a chance people, and remember just because you don't like something doesn't mean other people won't. I could for sure see some people possibly rating it a 2 or a 3 but a 1 no way I don't think so at all it wasn't that bad seriously

Give the movie a try and decide for yourself.

Tried my best to stick this film out as I'm a fan of low budget films, unfortunately I had to turn the film off after 30 minutes. The acting was really bad, in fact all the character's over acted. Didn't see any humour in the 30 minutes I managed to watch. Don't know why it's getting high ratings.

No real horror or tension in this film just overacting from the cast, it was like they were reading the script for the first time. It's rare I give a very low rating but there is no redeeming qualities in this film. I watch a lot of low budget films and some times you come across a gem or two. Not this film though.
