Bloodline Killer

Although Shawnee Smith looking like Mary Steenburgen, I swear even her voice she was going to say " Emmit, Emmitt..help!! Just a silly reference to Back to the Future 3.

30 minutes in, ehh not bad. Decent cast not bad acting nothing special but some Scare Tactics here and there. I kind of just wanted to come in here and say something about Shawnee Smith but looks like I have to use up another 200 characters. But let's not forget her in the blob. That was classic. Although lately I've been watching the series Becker. She is a great character in that show. Also not bad playing with Charlie seen as his ex-wife in anger management.

I will never understand how people make money in this industry by making bad movies and how such projects are financed.

The director has almost no 5-star rating in his past. How can you make such a bad movie and sell it and make money?

A movie that is a rip-off of Halloween and Friday the 13th. But the worst rip-off. We have a masked killer with a very modern haircut. Amanda, whom we know from the Saw movies, plays the mother of two men here. But the men are older than her. The acting is a disaster. The movie is not even worth watching to fill your free time.

There is no sex or nudity in the film.

A different kind of slasher film, one that digs into what it means to be a survivor...Bloodline Killer has a decent enough cast and a solid premise, but it gets lost in a plot that never really goes anywhere...

The pacing was dreadful. Everything dragged so much felt like watching this for hours. It was really tough time get through... The dialogue was AWFUL. There were a few noteble actors yet no one really shined & can't really blame them though because this film didn't give them a lot to work with, but this was so disappointing...

The fight scenes and kills were ridiculous of not gory they could have tried to make them at least a little bit scary and inventive... Also hoping for an explosive ending to redeem this film, but it didn't come close to achieving that...

This movie was painstakingly boring and the writing was ridiculously stupid. Actress Shawnee Smith plays the Matriarch of the Cole family, she tries to rebuild her shattered life after the murder of a family member by her deranged and obsessed cousin. Dont ask me why, I was trying my best to pay attention but I couldn't grasp the reason for the murderous rampage. I hope this film doesn't do a sequel because I didn't care about the characters, they seemed to flawed. The actress Tarryn Manning played a nurse in the film also, she's been doing a lot of grade B movies lately. Overall, I'll give it a 4 rating.

Given my love of the horror genre, of course I had to sit down and watch this 2024 movie titled "Bloodline Killer", as I happened to come across it by random chance. In fact, I didn't even know that the movie existed, so I wasn't sure what I was in for here. But I figured that a movie with another masked slasher couldn't possibly be all bad.

Writers Anthony Gaudioso and James Gaudioso, however, put together a script and storyline that I found to be somewhat bland and generic. It wasn't a particularly innovative or overly interesting story and narrative. Sure, if you're a newcomer to the horror genre, then you would perhaps get a kick out of watching "Bloodline Killer", but having been watching horror movies for 40+ years, this movie just really didn't impress me.

Sure, it was a watchable movie, but nothing outstanding or memorable. It was suitable for a single viewing, but hardly a movie that I will be returning to watch a second time. Nor is it a movie that I would be expecting a sequel to.

The acting performances in the movie were fair, but the actors and actresses were somewhat held back by an interior script that was lacking in the story and character department. There were a couple of familiar faces and names on the cast list, to help make it a bit more bearable to sit through, with the likes of Shawnee Smith, Taryn Manning, Tyrese Gibson and Bruce Dern.

The killer in "Bloodline Killer" was insanely generic and devoid of anything to make him interesting or scary. And the movie suffered terribly from that, because the killer was essentially just another random guy with a mask bought off of Wish. So writers Anthony Gaudioso and James Gaudioso sort of dropped the ball here, especially since there are so many other slasher movies out there with masked killers that shine in comparison to "Bloodline Killer".

Would I recommend you to sit down and watch "Bloodline Killer"? No, not really, especially not if you have seen a fair share of slasher flicks, then "Bloodline Killer" just simply doesn't cut it - pardon the pun.

My rating of director Ante Novakovic's 2024 movie "Bloodline Killer" lands on a very generous four out of ten stars.
