The Dinner Party

I am not slating the movie, it is by far not the worst I have seen. I am sure many will enjoy but not for me.

Not a bad story line, have seen the whole dinner party massacre thing before. But this movie does it with a twist. starts off quite slow alot of diologue and opra, some scenes feel classic horror with the score and filming methods, which is intentional but works. Most of the gore is off screen and implied. Few scences of female nudity and a lot of profanity. For me it's not my favorite sub genre in horror, and I found the film a little strange and not massivly engaging. But the movie is done in the style of classic horrors films and not your modern slasher, monster movies. Overall not really my thing, but would suit fans of the satanic old school style horror.

1 2 and 3 star reviews are honest 5 Is being kind and anything above is a fake review . The story is thin at best the dialogue is tedious and some of the acting in painful to watch . I only watched because the IMDb score wasn't bad for a horror but really wish I'd not wasted my time

This movie in no way fits all of the positive reviews on here. People said it was intelligent, unpredictable, thrilling. It is none of those things. The characters are so ridiculous that it's impossible to take them seriously or be scared by the villains. Not to mention it's about a half hour longer than it needs to be. Even the good cinematography can't make up for the horrible storyline and pretentiously written dialogue. This movie does nothing new, we've seen it all a million times. I wanted to turn this movie off 15 mins in, but I paid for it and wanted to get my money's worth so I suffered through the whole thing. I am begging you not to watch this movie.

A good third of this no so good movie is talk talk talk around a dinner table. Not a good way to movie a story along.

Of course, the story is thin.

And in the first minute of the film, you know which way it's gonna go.

It's a really slow film that brings down the energy.

I'm not impressed with this one. I generally love horror movies where you know something is off but you can't quite put your finger on it. I like movies where the tension builds slowly until it reaches some unforeseen end. Unfortunately, the subtlety required to pull off that kind of movie was missing entirely in this one because the characters were over the top. They were caricatures rather than characters. It is so obvious that something strange is going on that you're not surprised when everything goes to hell. And the ending is cheesy. It's too bad. It's an interesting story and it could have been a good film had it been done right.
