Brilliant comedy! It starts off with an overly dramatic male voice reading a whimsically rhyming "true story" that had my family in giggles within minutes. The entire title sequence is an amusingly corny montage of "creepy" imagery and music and ending with an off-key chorus of "creepy" voices, and the entire movie just gets funnier from there. It's an over- the-top parody of a horror movie combined with some kind of dramatic soap opera. The cheesy dialogue, questionable continuity, utter lack of characterization, and hilarious overacting really make this film one of the greatest I have ever seen. My family and I were all in tears from laughing so hard, and not even halfway through the movie. I highly recommend this film to anyone who wants a good laugh with dinner!

((Seriously though...this movie is truly awful. Yes, I was literally in tears from laughing so hard and I actually do recommend it if you've got the sense of humor for it.))

I picked this up for almost free as new as it could be but i should have know that it means trouble. And it was, this flick isn't worth your time. The story is rather simple, it's a ghost story nothing more or less but it's done so laughable in effects that it almost becomes a comedy.

And when the ghost is smashing heads with the axe it's never done that you could see some gore, for example when one person (Busey) is smashed with the axe we watch him from behind and you could see it was just a doll's head being smashed. But not only that, the transformation from normal to Lizzie is also done with cheap CGI effects. To make it even worse the acting is below zero. The possessed one never convinced me. Maybe the last minutes will offer a thing for the buffs here and there but by then it's all too late.

This movie must rank way up there as the worst ever. Haven't seen such bad acting, bad continuity, bad special effects, bad storyline...EVER. Why did anyone bother to make this film? What a waste of time, money and effort. I have never written a film review before as i never really felt strongly enough about one but this angered me to the extent that i must warn others not to spend their hard earned cash to sit through this poor excuse for a movie. It offers absolutely no entertainment value whatsoever. It got to the point where i was laughing at the ham-fisted acting, which really didn't take that long to be honest. There should be a 'no star' option for this flick. or maybe they should put in an option for 'minus stars'. If there was, this would get the maximum minus available.

Cannot agree with several other reviews.

For me, sorry to say, this is just a poorly made movie. Got very tired of the many cut-away scenes, many, just not cogent.

I do not mind watching movies just for some mindless fun and passing time. But, this was really wasting time. I rarely turn a movie off, just hoping it might show some promise by the end...sad to say, this one just kept going downward.

Promising premise, but never delivered.

Acting was poor. Felt the writing and editing poor. Some scenes outright laughable and not in a good way.

This is possibly the worst horror film I have ever watched.

The overall acting was poor and the quality of the film was just not acceptable.

As mentioned, the acting was terrible which was an automatic put off. I found myself cringing a lot at the acting when watching the film. It was truly awful.

The actual story to the film never seemed to want to come together, it was as though it never wanted to build up any anticipation.

I found myself waiting for the moment to be shocked or even scared but it never came at all.

I was very disappointed and bored throughout the entire movie and I am positive that you will be as well.

One of the worst movies I have ever seen, and I watch A LOT of movies.

The acting was horrible and the story made no sense at all. And what was up with her drinking all the time??

I would not recommend this movie to anyone. I rarely dislike any movie that I have seen, but this one is about one of the worse I have watched.

There was no continuity, I didn't care if any of the characters lived or died, and I couldn't wait for the end so I could stop watching it! And yes, I watched it to the end hoping that it would redeem itself (which it didn't, needless to say).

Thank God I watched it on Netflix, because if I had paid money for this movie, I would be very upset.

Don't waste your time utter c**p,

even if you see this in the pound shop and think well its only a pound, don't !!

just give it to the busker outside the store you will get far more from giving it away than you will from watching this movie you have been warned !! so now i gotta fill up the page talking about the movie to get the submission for this post so all I'm gonna say is the beginning of the movie is horribly narrated similar to a TV special on sci-fi channel and you get a instant feeling about film and at this point be like Luke and 'trust your feelings' take the DVD out the machine and make good use of it maybe a coaster or a Frisbee for the dog either way or better still save the panda bears and give the pound to them if any of the producers or directors, script writers or actors read this no offence has been mean,t but in fairness you bought it on yourself

Well, where do i start.....

This is about Lizzie Borden that goes insane and grab an axe and gave her mother 40 whacks, how? Watch the movie ;)

It is a true story so it can be different for everyone how they feel about this movie, bad or good. For me it was watchable but always fun to see a little go crazy, specially when it goes by an axe.

Acting can be abit better, story was abit slow until the end in my eye's but it is not that bad as movie. Of course if we see on the text of the movie that this girl wacked her mother into pieces that we wanted to see like other horror movies with lots of gore and terrifying moments at the movie when true story is involved but in this case i would say it was abit easy going on this movie...

What i said it is still a good movie for if you are bored. And see a true story about a little girl that whacked her mother into pieces. for me i say it is watchable...for you must see it and judge it by yourself how this movie is for yourself... is it good or bad..

This is just a repeat of what others have been saying. It's just completely awful!! The actors suck, the writing sucked and I am personally offended that they can even say this is based from a true story. With the exception of the monologue at the beginning and a few hints to the actual Borden story check out the 1975 movie called The Legend of Lizzie Borden. I guess my only question is why is this a $1.20 from Redbox and can I get my money back? I know a few producers who could make a great documentary on this particular event and it be one of the best things you've seen… ever…where are you Phil and Christopher Saint Booth when we need something decent and recent for this story???

I've been through the reviews, all of which do a fitting job of explaining just how horrible this movie is; I only wish I'd thought to read the reviews before I rented it. All I want to know is.... what the ¥<&¿ Did we just watch? Is there anyone out there, that has seen the movie (avoid it at all costs) who can explain what it was about. Was there a plot, a story line, anything... that can fulfill my desire to understand what we just wasted $4.and two hours on. Don't fall into the trap, if it is ever suggested that one should watch this movie... make an appointment to have a root canal without anaesthesia... as that would be far less painful than sitting through this... what exactly would one call this? I don't feel comfortable calling it a movie.

This movie could not be worse if it tried! The acting was terrible, the scares non-existent, and the plot had no continuity whatsoever!I tried to treat the plot like a puzzle only to find I was missing not one, not even two,but half on the entire frigging' puzzle! The only redeeming quality was the boyfriend looked halfway decent with his shirt off, I am glad I watched this on Netflix and did not waste money on this absolute bore. If you are like me and will watch a movie just hoping it will get better, do not and I repeat do not waste your time with this one! There are so many other good or even bad movies out there that are worth your time than this one. Sucksville unless you like random boob shots. Oh, and my final thought is that the therapist should lose his license forever...DENIED! That stupid f--k hadn't seen the ball since kickoff!

Worst movie I have ever seen. I've seen high school students make better films than this. When people were being murdered with an ax, I couldn't help but laugh at how cheesy it was. The ax was never swung hard enough to even break the skin. Also the writer(s) had no sense of creativity. Certain lines were used repeatedly throughout the film such as "Jason, is that you?" or "I'm calling the cops" Movie was just complete utter crap. I cant believe anybody would waste their time shooting something like this, and I would be truly embarrassed to show that movie even to my closest friends if I made it. Trust me, do not rent this movie, This was a total waste of my $1.30 and the the two hours I spent watching it. I spent the whole time waiting for it to pick up or something, but it just never happened.

i watched the movie yesterday . it's clear that everyone of the cast has worked hard . first of all the poster and the name of the movie attracted me so much . the way they introduced the movie and told us about the old story of MR. Andrew Borden , Abby and the daughter Lizzie Borden , it was very interesting , if we concentrate here we are going to find that the sentences of the narrator are perfectly rhyming , i felt that i wanted to hear that voice telling the story over and over . Amanda baker and Leif Holt played their roles in a way very close to being perfect . the picturing is great that it would deserve about 7 out of 10 . the music used all through the movie is very capturing and amazing , it made me feel sad , surprised , afraid , happy . Moreover, it made me feel that i am part of what is happening . okay , let us say of course the movie has some weakness points , like the story was a little bit confusing and it wasn't clear to all viewers that Maggie (the maid) was supposed to be an actual person that was taken over by the spirit of the maid from fall river. it's like the spirits played out what had happened in 1892. overall, it's a very good job and we have to see through things to come up with it : " the movie deserves more appreciation " .

Lizzie (2012) is currently available on Tubi. The storyline follows a woman named Lizzie who had a traumatic experience as a child she doesn't fully remember. One day she stirs spirits in her home that's unlocks a grueling past in the house and may help her remember her own traumatic experience. This movie is directed by David Dunn Jr (The Writers Club) and stars Caitlin Carmichael (Wheelman), Amanda Baker (General Hospital), Don Swayze (Drop Zone) and Corbin Bernsen (Major League). The opening narration of this film felt like a Christmas Carol the way it rhymes and flowed. It was probably the best part of the movie. The acting is terrible top to bottom. Everything felt awkward and unnatural. The film uses makeup and masks and quick flashes to them for their horror elements...it didn't work. I'm not sure where Gary Busey (Point Break) came from at the very end...but that was weird too. Overall this is a strangely put together horror movie that isn't worth your time. I'd score this a 1/10 and recommend skipping it.
