The Summoned

What is this? I mean like not awful but also not good ¿ i might just be extra disappointed bc i did read the reviews before watching & they were all extremely good. Overall, semi-decent but cringey.

Sadly, everything interesting about this movie could have been accomplished in a half hour episode of outer limits, without the boredom and wasted time.

No its not complete garbage actually, but its just not that good movie, on the plus side I think the acting works well and direction is good, production is ok , low budget but they have tried their very best

But the story, the story is stupid, the whole idea is just stupid, feels like someone wrote this in a cab on his way to the studio, material is thin as a paper and so many holes in it a cheese would be green of envy

But its not complete garbage, you can watch this with a half eye a rainy sunday, but you cant watch it a saturday evning with popcorn, actually its a very typical 3-5 star movie not lower not higher.

"The Summoned" promised a suspenseful horror, but the finale product is deeply disapointing. I feel like in some ways it tried to mimic "Get Out" and definitely didin't succeed. The story itself is quite messy because the main plot is basically only told (by the characters) and not shown. Because of that the story doesn't really come through and in the end you are left with asking yourself "what was this film actually about?". Most of the scenes are horror cliches and in my opinion some were too cheesy and even laughable. Overall I am sure I felt extremely bored watching it and I am going to forget this film very soon.

Was able to catch this at Overlook and it was a really fun time! Loved the acting and the camera work. Not super bloody/scary which I appreciated, but more fun/tense. Fun movie to watch in a group!!
