    Offensively Bad

    I cannot stress how bad The Castle is and I watch a LOT of independent horror features.

    The "Simply Amazing!" 10/10 review by user Arish Sirkissoon, look at the name of the writer and director of this movie......it's Arish Sirkissoon. He's not even hiding the fact he's shilling his own film. I do hate it when people do that, get over yourself and your movie! If it's genuinely good then let the viewers decide.

    Awful acting, dreadful cinematography, a cringe inducing script, half the movie is simply filler and the rest is so generic and so unoriginal it's pitiful.

    Embarrassing, everyone involved should hang their heads in shame.

    It's just...so bad

    I am not sure where to even begin. It is offensive that people would produce this sort of amateur shlock and put it out there. The 10/10 review is obviously fake from someone who is involved with the film. The writing is comically bad. The acting is worse than a first year theatre student. The plot is unrealistic, stupid, and boring. The "castle" is just a nice, big house, not even a castle. All of the characters are one-dimensional, no, HALF-dimensional. It is offensively awful. If you want to spend your time more productively, then pluck your eyebrows out one by one: it will be much less painful than watching this piece of garbage.

    Worst film ever

    Its starts of with a group setting up camp in a forest, the best bit was the red chair. How where some in semi day light but everytime it showed one girl , it was dark

    The Acting was truly cringeworthy, Michael may have been the worse, the rest weren't any better, storyline badly predictable , sound effects and lighting aweful.

    The only good thing is its over, I hope rumours of a sequal is a joke.

    I think a huge issue with this film is Arish sirkissoon He wrote it, directed , produced it ,he edited it, he did the sound design, the grading, Screen play, he acted in it. He needs to walk away Did I remember to say the credit chair was good?

    Simply Amazing!

    Simply Amazing!

    A movie that was developed during trying times in South Africa. Dealing with Covid regulations, floods and strikes. This movie is a testement that anything can happen if you believe. Developed by Arish Sirkissoon and Dr Raj Singh this movie is a fun mix of horror and theatre. The movie is set up for a sequel and will take you on an interting journey through the minds of the creators. It's worth a watch and this psychological thriller will leave you with questions. We look forward to the sequel which will explore this cult more indepthly. A fun watch with twists and turns. Get ready for adventure.

    At least the writer/director thought it was good.

    When one of the only10/10 reviews is from the writer/director of the movie and the majority of other reviews are 1-2/10 it doesn't take a genius to predict the whole will to be pretty dire. I won't give the plot away, just in case you enjoy low quality horror, but the plotline is laughable, acting is about the same level but at least it's less than 80 minutes long.

    In their review, the writer/director is threatening a sequel...you have been warned!

    Being a fan of the horror genre, I never cease to be amazed at the low quality of many such movies on the main streaming providers sites and can only assume that they are just a cheap way to fill the companie's catalogues of available material.
