Everwinter Night

Caught this one on Tubi and have to admit that it took a little while to get going but it grew on me. Typically don't watch slower burns but this one was different and the ending is a certified banger. Everybody was believable - really well acted from top to bottom. Cinematography was top notch for something that sounds like it had a smaller budget. Setting was cool. And yeah, it takes a lit bit, but once it rolls into the last act, the blood is flying and it's a hell of a time.

Can't wait to check this one out again to see how all the threads work. Definitely check this one out if you like your horror with a bit of drama. A real indie gem.

The 10/10 star reviews must have come from people associated with the film itself. Calling this movie a "Classic" or anything else positive is garbage. I couldn't even finish it. Frankly, I'm not even sure what the hell this movie is about and I watched 3/4 of it! Definitely NOT a horror movie. The writing is terrible which contributed to the confusion about what exactly the movie was about. The acting was pretty bad. Only the main actress had a bit of talent. So I hope you will do yourself a favor and skip this one. I wish I could get my time back. I guess I know now why a 2023 movie went straight to Tubi streaming?

Please take my advice and skip it. It was so boring that even at the climax ending I used fast-forward to get over with it.

It has nothing to offer. The story sucks and so does the script and the acting. After half an hour you hope that something will come up but it doesn't untill the last 5 minutes and what a dissapointment!

Some guys praisint it must be out of their minds. Comparing it to the Evil Dead! And classic comedy! Where the hell is that comedy?!

I guess people have diffrent tastes but this one must be the norm for bad taste.

Better spend your time elsewhere.

Don't say you were not warned.

I was initially intrigued by the movie's cover and it's title. Sure, I had never heard about the movie, but it seemed like a horror movie that might prove interesting enough. And given my love and fascination with all things horror, of course I opted to give the movie a chance.

The storyline in "Everwinter Night" was a massive swing and a miss. There was nothing entertaining enough it as it dragged on with its pointless narrative. And I am not kidding when I am saying that there was nothing worthwhile to sit through as director Adam Newman stumbled about like a bull in a fine porcelain store. It was difficult to sit through this borefest of a movie.

In fact, I endured a staggering 73 minutes of absolute boredom out of a total of its 105 minutes total runtime. By then I was just bored to tears. There literally was no point to the storyline that writers Chris Goodwin and Adam Newman had put together.

I was not familiar with the actors and actresses on the cast list. But I will say that the acting performances were fair enough, just a shame that the actor and actresses had nothing wholesome to work with in terms of script, dialogue, characters or contents.

Do yourself a favor and give "Everwinter Night" a wide berth. It just simply isn't worth the time of day. Some of us suffered through this dumpster fire of a movie so you don't have to; you're quite welcome.

My rating of director Adam Newman's 2023 borefest of a movie titled "Everwinter Night" lands on a one out of ten stars.

Trying to have a weekend trip together, a group of girlfriends are coerced into joining a group of frat guys at a mountain lodge where they're holding a special party, but when they start to believe the men have invited them there for a different reason must try to solve it and leave before it happens.

This was an abominably awful genre effort without much to like here. The only positive to be had here is the final few minutes where it actually has something going on that requires genuine genre thrills. Realizing what the full extent of the gathering is about, the occult ritual and demnic creature being summoned has a grat atmosphere to go along with some frenetic action involving the bodies getting ripped apart in gruesome fashion. The imagery and atmosphere of what's going on makes for a fun time here with this being the only part where something happens and the bloodshed occurs, but it's still not enough with it being too little too late. There's quite a lot to dislike with this one. The irritating characters that are impossible to care about or root for with their braindead banter or holier-than-thou attitudes, mysterious dialog that's supposedly meant to be funny or the sheer lack of anything thrilling happening makes this one excruciating to get through. As none of the characters are unlikable, with the girls being obnoxious party-girls willing to do anything at the drop of a hat because their company has money and the sensible one is a wet-blanket worry-wart upset over any change of plans while the men are hierarchy-focused beta-males trying to carry out this secretive ritual that is never explained so the group here is immensely hard to get behind. On top of that, there's nothing here that's really all that focused on the antics of the group that it doesn't have much of anything interesting happening. With the majority of the running time spent on getting the group established, what the ceremonial gathering is about and the different interactions possible, it takes so long before anything gets spelled out and revealed that it's just not entirely exciting anymore. With so much of the running time spent on aspects not even remotely interesting at all and a group of characters we're not in the slightest bit interested in, these elements all manage to drag this one down incredibly well.
