Review of Shadow People

Actually I wasn't expecting very much watching Shadow People, but seeing a movie as inept in every department as Shadow People is enough to make anybody reel. Amateurish is insulting to the word amateurish when talking about the movie from a visual and technical point of view, the editing is very choppy, the lighting dull, the sets looking even worse than a hoarder's home and effects that don't even look finished. The direction is incompetent, the pacing drags on so most of the movie is unbearably tedious and the dialogue is clunky at best. The story is ridiculous and paper thin, and just when I was questioning the point of the Guorde Shadow People doesn't even try to give an explanation. The characters have no development and I ended up hating every single one of them. The pastor was hilarious in how unintentionally odd he was but that's it. And it certainly doesn't help that they are wildly overacted by the whole cast.

Overall, a shockingly awful film that was bad even for my already low expectations. 1/10 Bethany Cox
