One Must Fall

One Must Fall suffers from fairly bad writing, directing and acting that isn't exclusive to small budget movies but nonetheless brings down the movie.

Although set in the 80's, the time period itself does not factor into anything, other than perhaps to eliminate mobile phones from the equation, which could have been taken care of in other ways.

Barry Piacente stands out, playing his role quite well, and being surrounded by the other mediocre to outright bad actors makes him stand out even more. The practical effects were good and very well done for a small budget movie. There is some tension, but the movie is ultimately brought down by the aforementioned bad writing and directing, even going so far as to use lines from other movies.

All in all not a movie I would recommend, but director Antonio Pantoja definitely has potential once he gets some more experience under his belt and realises that not many people can pull of writing and directing simultaneously, especially first timers.

I'm always looking for lesser known movies that have been well reviewed, and I saw this pop up and thought "Hey, 7.2 with 1000 reviews, this is gonna be pretty good."

Little did I know that I should've actually READ some of the reviews, cause it turns out this movie was heavily review bombed with 10's and it shows. Though not all the actors are terrible (Sarah and Dorian are passable), the dialogue is particularly awful and the scares are non-existant. The practical effects are standard b-movie fare, definitely nothing to write home about.

Pretty bad, even by b-movie standards. Shame about the blatant vote manipulation, guess it's the only way to get people to watch your lousy movie.

Was a good first attempt. But not impressed. Was reading the other reviews and I find it hard to believe that all these people believe this film is a "10". They obviously know nothing about film and true horror. It did look nice, but even that wasn't that great.

First off never in my life have I seen a film where people give it 10 stars on IMDb not even classics such as The Godfather or Taxi Driver...so obviously these are family friends of the actors or filmmakers and I even noticed some reviewers ARE the actors and filmmakers. C'mon seriously?

Secondly the movie doesn't deserve even half of ten stars because it was just indie horror schlock. Boring dialogue, boring characters, boring gore. Completely forgettable. Thank GOD it was free to watch.

It tries. It starts out quirky and camp humor horror. Then it turns into sadistic slasher serial evil killer. For no reason. The killer tries to imbue some sort of philosophical element to the purpose, but this is wasted by the comedy start. Then it just gets ugly and stupid.
