Primrose Lane

I'd like to meet the people giving these movies high marks and praises, I'd like to punish them by making them watch this god awful movie over and over. I'll give it this one positive remark, it's a definite cure for insomnia. NOTHING happens but 3 or 4 people in a house talking. The scariest "special effects" are a marble and a can of dog food falling to the floor. OOOooooo

Let me start by saying you can't have a flash back within a flash back. This movie was a drag. Nothing happens the entire time. The dialogue sounds like it was written by someone who doesn't understand the English language. The story never unfolds. The strange scenes of the past, the terrible Chinese accent, and the oddly racial tension in the past scenes makes you ask: what's the point? I suffered through this movie so you don't have to

Just as it gets interesting it ends!!! Way too many unexplained happenings. You have to have a story, not just a series of unconnected events. Where are the great story tellers? Clearly not in this movie

I was lucky enough to catch a screening of Primrose Lane at the Philadelphia Independent Film Festival. While the festival was a blast, Primrose Lane was a bit of a let down. The film follows a couple who hole up in a remote house that happens to have nefarious elements within, leading the couple to a horrifying discovery. The story isn't anything groundbreaking or particularly memorable. Writer-director Kathleen Davison wears her influences on her sleeve and Primrose Lane demonstrates her ability to capture tension on screen but she falters in delivering the truly scary moments and this leads to the film having a very disappointing payoff. The performances are nothing to write home about, they're not bad but they're not particularly good either. The technical aspects of this film definitely are the strongest points here. The camera work is extremely well thought out and feels very professional in its execution; a nice color grade on it really captures the tone very well also. The lighting was also very well done and captured Davison's tone even further. Overall, Primrose Lane feels like it was made for die hard horror fans, especially those who seem to gravitate towards supernatural horror but, as a whole, the film didn't do it for me. Despite this, I feel that Kathleen Davison did demonstrate some great technical work that added to the suspense of the film and I look forward to see what else she has in store for us in the future.

Terrible acting, ridiculous plot & not a horror movie, maybe a bad comedy. Stupid conversation regarding immigration for no reason. Gay guy"s acting was only good when he wasn't trying to sound gay. I can't say 1 good thing about this movie.
