    Mind Blown

    I like the concept of this movie. I know that some people would say this is not a horror. I don't want to spoil the film so I'm not going to say much. However being a black woman myself, I would say hell yeah this is a horror to me. Definitely worth watching, be open minded.

    This film had a clear message!

    This film had a clear message, and I believe it's mediocre rating is solely because many people weren't ready to see it. Great plot twist, kept me interested, great acting, exceptional cinematography.. it's not necessarily a "must see", but it's definitely not as terrible as the majority of reviews make it out to be.

    Surprising, thrilling and twisted

    Antebellum may not be a horror movie like the trailer suggests, however: it is all about the horrors its main characters go through. Antebellum is an interesting ride throughout, with much contrast, a strong ambience and great acting.

    • Trivia
      Gerard Bush got the idea from a nightmare he once had. He initially thought it would be a good basis for a short story, but he later developed it with co-director Christopher Renz into a screenplay for a feature film.
    • Goofs
      During Veronica's Skype conversation with Elizabeth, she positions her laptop in a different angle so that her daughter isn't visible on the camera. However, when the shot cuts to Elizabeth's perspective, Veronica's camera is back in place from where it was prior.
