The Lockdown Hauntings

I wasn't going to bother with a review of such a terribly inane move, but there were so many high rated reviews that I felt people needed to know they were being lied to.

This movie was made obviously for low information horror fans who are the only ones who could possibly buy this premise.

Filled with bad acting and stupid scenarios, it's an absolute insult to our intelligence.

They used that guy from Candy Man to give it credence I guess, but don't waste you time on this one. Even he can't save it.

It's not scary - it's just plain stupid and full of nonsense.

The odd thing is that there are a dozen 8 to 10 reviews for this but the average is below 4, telling us that most people just didn't bother to tell us how bad it really was. And it's likely that the high reviews are from people involved in the production, because anyone who really gave it an honest review would not give it more than a 4.

I gave it lower because it was exploitative to an ignorant number of viewers.

I notoriously ALWAYS finish a movie. My wife even makes fun of me for it, calling it a waste of my time.

Well... I found my white whale. The first movie in literally decades I couldn't be bothered to finish. With just 12 minutes left, I couldn't justify the waste of time and braincell function to keep on watching this movie with a, honestly, interesting concept.

I forgive the actors. We all have to start somewhere, right? But the writing, pasing, cinematography and sound design... I just couldn't anymore.

I spend the 12 minutes doing something stimulating, by cleaning the vegetable drawer in my refrigerstor.

As boring as lockdown was for all of us, this was pretty bad even by the standards of nothing to do for months on end. Pretty sure it was written, directed, and acted during lockdown to be silly, but meh.

I feel bad that tony todd was in this. He deserves more and his character couldve been utilized in a better way. Its a very mismatched film as we have these different segments and I suppose being filmed during the pandemic didnt really help its chances, there are just random scenes of seeminly unrealated characters talking to loved ones and many scenes are pretty boring. There are some supernatural goings on but they feel cheap and dont really cause any realy haunted vibes. The killings seemed weird to. If you want a good film by director howard j ford id recommend dark game it has a much beter story.

I'd just write "zzzz" and you'd know everything you need to know about this movie. But IMDB wants more words.

Tony Todd does a small cameo, wow, I guess his die-hard followers had to rate this higher than it's worth because of that fact. Still doesn't make it any better than a "zzzz" flick.
