What Happened at 625 River Road

The way it was edited, does make it a little bit confusing to follow. I get it's a mystery unsolved, but rather than flashes to things that happened, and a little bit more explaining at the end would have gone a long way. Like with the detective giving what he thought happened, and what they found at the house.

I loved the first night in the house, and shots from the outside with strange movements and shadowy figures. It looked really great and really added to tension of the film. It was a really interesting way of doing it, and I think it worked well.

The production value seemed pretty good and so did the acting.

Well where do I start I could have seen it all the way through if the acting was any good, but it wasn't, so many plot holes you could fit a Boeing 747 in them, I was hoping they would all be murdered. Best acting goes to the cat. I need more words for this review but I really can't think of anything to say, as the boredom and bad acting have numbed my brain but I will endeavour to find one positive thing about the film, oh yes, it's 1 hour 10 minutes long, but I still couldn't bring myself to watch it to the end, my hubby had already picked up his mobile, a sure sign that he couldn't be bothered with it either.

This guy made everyone on the crew work for free, then buys himself a huge Cyber Truck with the money he made from this project...

He showed up at my apartment with his new cyber truck and asks me if I'm willing to cheat on my boyfriend of 7 years cause he thinks he is so cool with his new cyber truck and all the new hollywood connections he got.

Devon Jovi Johnson thinks it's okay to make fun of the love of my life just cause he makes more money than him.

Love is more than just money, Jovi.

He also stole my wide angle lens and plays dumb when I confront him on it.

Devon Jovi Johnson ruined his chance of ever becoming successful because he let greed and his hugely overrated ego take over.

He's a scam artist who's only in it for himself.

Bye.

The story itself is decent but the acting is so bad that it borders on comedic. The girl who plays Laura is okay but the one who plays Kelly is just bad. I hated the camera angles too. It screamed B movie but not in a good way. It's like they were intentionally trying to make it look bad.

This isn't a horror movie or a scary movie in any way. The story line moves too fast with a lot of missed opportunities for any kind of build up. It's the typical Airbnb story that goes wrong. But it jumps around to so many different people that there's no real story to follow.

There's zero character development so you really don't care what happens to anyone. And the parts that finally get going, the camera zooms in and out of people's faces, goes up and down and all around in a very Blair Witch kind of way that's just annoying.

This is one of those movies that had a lot of promise but went the other way and just failed.

What could have potentially been a good film was sadly completely ruined by the abysmal acting. I don't know if it was dubbed, or if this was actors actually voicing the dialogue, either way every line from every actor was delivered with a total lack of emotion or tonal change.

The story itself was interesting and had huge potential to something worthy of a 7 or 8 star review. It would be interesting to see a big name look to remake this with a bigger budget and better cast, as i think in the right hands this could've been something special.

As it is, i'm giving it 4 stars purely based on that potential and the overall story.

Is it worth a watch? I would say so, but please, do not expect anything of any real standard.
