The Forest Hills

Oh how i have missed miss Shelley Duvall, i love that she is returning to acting again, she has such a great talent, i love all here movies and she's still got it.

Also who remembers when Edward Fulong was John Conner in Terminator 2, when i heard he was doing this movie together with Shelley Duvall, i mean i was so excited and i was right.

This movie is a must watch, i will not give any spoilers, but this movie is a true gem, if you like outdoorsy movies, with a low key setting, truly highlighting the talents of all the actors, then this is a must watch. I hope Edward Furlong and Shelley Duvall make a lot more movies soon. Please watch!!!

I was excited to see Shelly's last performance. That excitement ended within about 2 minutes of watching the movie. The acting is terrible, the writing is nonsensical, and there's not much positive to say about this movie. There were 3 other people in the theater. They walked out about 20 minutes into it. My wife and I followed suit about 10 mins after they walked out. I can't recall the last time I walked out of a movie.

I'm saddened that this is Shelly's last movie. She was a wonderful actor, and she deserved so much more.

This movie goes to show that big names do not equate to a good movie. .

Shelley Duvall (rest her soul) and Edward Furlong. Yes they're in it and they add very little. One of the worst movies I've seen in my life. They're a few scenes of dialog that make me laugh and I'm not sure it's intentional. Other than that there's not much to offer and I can't believe I watched this in theatres. The fact that there were 4 people in the theatre including me says something. It's not worth a watch and in my humble opinion it's a disgrace to Edward Furlong career and the memory of Duvall. It's not even campy good it's just a waste of space. I think they used Duvall and Furlong's names to increase the popularity of this movie. Trash.

Okay, It's Shelley Duvall's last performance. She played Mama whose son, Rico, is a mess of a human being. He is either a monster or damaged beyond repair. The film especially the writing doesn't make anything clear for the viewers. I would have only seen it for Shelley's final performance. It's a shame that she didn't do more. The script and the storylines don't make sense to me as a viewer. I truly have no idea what is really going on with the main character, Rico. The actor who played Rico does an admirable job. I just wished he cleaned up a little bit. Dee Wallace has a tiny role as his boss. The other characters just don't make any sense. I see this film is dedicated to horror film directors. It's an independent so you can't be too harsh on it. Independent films don't have the budget. The film made me realize how much we missed Shelley Duvall after all these years.

The Forest Hills is little more than another forgettable, incredibly amateurishly-made horror film that does nothing to separate itself apart from countless other microbudget horror movies you'll find on Plex or Roku.

Admittedly, the only reason you've heard of this one is because it features Edward Furlong, Dee Wallace, Felissa Rose and Shelley Duvall in the final role of her career (and her first role in twenty years). Duvall is honestly the highlight, portraying a sympathetic character with natural charisma during very brief time on screen. But as for the rest of the movie, it was such a scattershot vision with no clear direction.

This movie was lost on whether it wanted to be a genuine horror movie or some kind of Lovecraftian fan fiction and it failed to ever stay on any of the paths it tried to set itself upon. The result was scattered, unfocused, talkative, slow and worst of all boring. And even at a brief 79 minutes it felt all too long, so I couldn't even make it to the end.
