Spin the Bottle

This one actually surprised me. Went in with low expectations and still managed to be entertained.

Always love seeing some familiar faces when I got into a movie blind and this one did not let me down on that front. Heeelllloooo Justin!

It had plenty of the horror tropes to offer, but where it lost me often times was with the excessive dialogue and the somewhat simple and unsatisfying death scenes. I would have loved to see more especially when you have such a recognizable cast in your movie.

All in all I did have a good time with the movie, and would recommend to anyone who like a good game night that we all know too well.

I watched Spin The Bottle because Justin Long and Ali Larter are in it, but let me tell you this... they're seriously slumming it in this one; it's an extremely weak teen horror that is totally unworthy of their talents.

Larter plays Maura Randell, who is recovering in a mental hospital while her son Cole (Tanner Stine) makes himself at home in the house where, decades earlier, his grandmother Lorelai killed several of her friends while playing a game of spin the bottle. Turns out that there was a demon trapped inside the bottle, and playing the game enabled it to possess Lorelai.

This being a wholly unoriginal and extremely predictable piece of crap, it will come as no surprise when Cole and his new high school pals find the bottle and play their own game of spin the bottle - with disastrous results.

The teenage characters are extremely irritating, which wouldn't be a problem if we got to see them all die in very gory fashion, but the film is practically bloodless. There's really bad CGI visual effects, loads of wearisome exposition, lots of kissing (but no gratuitous nudity), and the whole thing is spun out over two excruciatingly dull hours! Justin Long is the best thing about the film, playing the local town sheriff and father to Cole's love interest Kasey (Kaylee Kaneshiro), but he needs to be a bit more choosy about his roles: I'd hate to see him wasted in more worthless garbage like this.

Boring, meandering, and decidely un-scary. Basically a crummy teen football flick. With ghosts. Complete with a 300lb quarterback and a token black guy.

Yikes, this sucked. Someone needs to do a sit-down with Ali Larter and Justin Long and remind them they're still fringe A-listers and they are putting even that in peril by signing off on this piece of swill. Really, they're that hard up for cash? At least Bruce Willis could claim encroaching dementia for things like this. Don't see that working for Larter or Long.

There's also the 'horror actually needs to scare you or disturb you' thing ... but 90% of horror flicks miss the point on that.

The acting was alright. That was about it.

A rip off of the Australian movie " Talk To Me" but full of stupidity. The writer and director are not explaining what they are thinking, to convert it to film for us to see.

Was a bit slow at the beginning then it was ok until the last 20 mins. Which is predictable.

Why would you steel the bottle?

Characters kept running out on their own. If you have been scared you don't run into the darkness on your own or do you?

At a huge party only a few play the game. What was everyone else doing?

It takes place in a small town but the there is a big school and so many kids at school.

If there has been a few murders in such a small town. You would skip hanging out.

It's only a movie and terrible at that.

I'd skip it but if your board give it ago.

The plot is a lazy, rehashed mess that attempts to cash in on the nostalgia of party games but delivers nothing more than tired clichés and painfully awkward dialogue. The acting feels like a high school drama project gone wrong, with performances that range from wooden to outright cringeworthy. The pacing is all over the place. Production values feel cheap, as if the entire thing was thrown together without any real thought or effort. This movie is not just a waste of time; it's a blatant insult to viewers' intelligence and a sad reminder of how low some filmmakers will stoop for a quick buck. Even Justin Long couldn't save this mess.
