Little Bone Lodge

This was surprisingly well put together, with great cinematography and a fitting score - a rare quality in B films. All casting and performances from actors I've never heard of were excellent and convincing. Newb writer Neil Linpow, who also played the Jack character, makes his full length feature film debut with a fairly decent screenplay, albeit a little predictable. Directing by Matthias Hoene was also impressive, as he was able to maintain a constant tone of suspense. The pacing did have some issues, and certainly could've been a little faster in some areas, because the 93 min runtime did feel much longer. Nevertheless, a decent one-time watch and a well deserved 7/10 from me.

This is a movie to my taste. It was recommended to me and I was not disappointed. The story has some unexpected twists that worked perfectly and pretty soon you realize there are more secrets than what meets the eye. The acting was overall very good and each of the actors really did a fantastic job. I was particularly impressed by the dynamic between the two brothers and their intense and complex relationship. The film takes place during a stormy night which adds mystery and atmosphere to the set. It's a low-budget production but often (not always) they surpass bombastic, big-budget Hollywood movies filled with CGI effects. Another this I appreciated was that the action began pretty early so it's not really a slow-burner. The ending is somewhat predictable but all in all this is definitely a film worth watching if you like mystery thrillers. I give it 7 out of 10 easily.

From the first 10 minutes you can pretty much predict the general plot, and while many movies would fail there this one does not. The acting is excellent, and there are still enough plot twists to add some spice to the story.

It is very well made. The setting is fine the camera work is excellent, the sound is great.

It has horror elements albeit grounded. Its horror like watching Hitchcocks Psycho is horror. Some of the shocking scenes are worthy of the movie Silence of the Lambs.

Not normally what I like, more of an Insidious type of guy, but the whole family liked it including teenagers. The ending is also pretty good, bittersweet but ok even for those who like "happy" endings.

Recently I have seen a few movies that have been put into the horror genre that are really thrillers with some horror which is more to do with the evil that humans are capable of. This falls into that category.

However, once I got past the realisation that this was not a horror in the true sense, no ghosts, no demons, no serial killers in masks, it was a very enjoyable movie.

The acting was top notch through out and although there was a twist and a bit of a reversal towards the end, the story felt somewhat familiar But done so well, it actually didn't bother me. As long as you don't go into this movie expecting Paranormal Activity, or Halloween, it is a suspenseful and enjoyable thriller.

I had this on my radar for quite some time but never could find it as I was looking for "Little Bone Lodge" when the title on streaming is "The Last Exit". I far more like the title "Little Bone Lodge" but that is neither here nor there.

This was more interesting than I thought it was going to be. It had quite a few intriguing aspects and was a very layered story. It had many building blocks that I have seen before but maybe not all together in one story. I think some of the intrigue was dimmed a bit due to its predictability, but it was still there nonetheless.

The pacing was also just a little off for what it was. I think some of that was due to this movie faining as a horror/thriller, and while there were certainly aspects of each, it felt like mostly a drama to me.

There is no denying the exciting twists and turn throughout this story all while being supported by some pretty stellar performances. I think this was on the edge of being something quite cool but missed just a little bit. Regardless, still above average and would recommend.
