As far as horror movies go, not that bad, the scary lady was creepy as hell and good cinematography. Worked well with a low budget, keeping sets and cast small. The storyline was a bit too boring for the majority of the movie, but pulled through in the end.
An Italian terror attempt.
It is about a man who takes his girlfriend to his mother's house and his daughter begins to suffer strange situations from his presence.
Totally parsimonious, the first hour nothing happens. The last half hour is the one that develops everything.
Predictable like all of its kind.
Quality.
Performances at the level but nothing relevant.
The effects are fine, one that another is not fully achieved.
Talk about tie downs.
The ending is very simple and nothing spectacular. It remains owing.
Try to give suspense with hackneyed moments and situations.
The Binding is a new Italian horror that was realesed in this days and i must say that it wasnt a total disaster,film had some good acting performances and some use of visual aspects and creepy imagery was done in a solid way,but that is where a good staff stops to me,and predictable and lame ones begin.Story was seen in a thousends of similiar films and i havent seen nothing new to impress me,scares were also very uneffective and they didnt have a impact on me,ending was little cliched and it felt like all the same.Honestly i wish that Italia gets another horror maestro like Argento was ,so we can again enjoy good horrors again from their side
I'm a bit of a sucker for low budget horror movies ... if they are done and played well. I might have given this a point or two more than some may feel this deserves. Yes we have cliches and yes this is quite predictable. Still it is a horror movie that works (all the bad character choices included) ... very well made and acted.
Suspend your disbelief and enjoy the ride. Effects are decent and story is ok too. It will not reinvent the wheel, it will also probably not make your top 10 list, but that does not make this a bad movie. Of course it may not be your taste ... there is no accounting for that.

A very normal horror without great innovations that is added to the many already existing, despite this however it still manages to create a good atmosphere of terror and tension even if in the end some things remain unnecessarily unexplained and in the film there are some quite evident weft holes.
