Dead Whisper

Honestly, I consider myself very easily pleased when it comes to movies. But my lord what on earth is this film.

It's not in the slightest scary, the story line is all over the place. I honestly have no clue what even happened.

Made absolutely no sense. So many unanswered questions, the film appears to just pick up and drop off in random places. Maybe it's just me because I see many reviews saying how amazing it is and a new age horror thriller. Just no, not in the slightest bit accurate in my opinion.

I want my 90 minutes back because I've never spent them doing anything so boring in my life!

Movies are not for everyone. There is no need to wait for a special intrigue, there is no clear statement, there will be no struggle between good and evil. It's just a movie reflection in a whisper :) The film is an unusual cinematography, where the tragic escapism of meditative aesthetics becomes the main element. This is a picture created for true connoisseurs of slow and unhurried discussions about the essence of death. This is a quiet movie whisper, delicately immersing the viewer in a world of detachment and oblivion.

The story of a hero who gave up life and got the desired oblivion becomes not so much a plot as an occasion for deep reflection. An image of loneliness, highlighted by mise en scene and classic reference camera work. The director creates a subtle atmosphere of understatement, in which each frame seems to invite the viewer to become a participant in this meditative journey.

Intrigue does not prevail here, it gives way to contemplation and internal dialogue. The film does not try to convince or convey a specific message, it invites each viewer to hear for himself a faint whisper of reflections on life and death. This is a reflection movie, where quiet moments take on special significance, and each frame becomes a platform for subtle reflection.

It's more than a movie :) This is an experience that requires careful and thoughtful immersion. In this escapist world, saturated with refined loneliness and the elegance of understatement, the viewer can find his own answers to questions or not, the second is most likely :) which the movie asks in a barely audible whisper.

The scene is the seashore. Somehow a pay phone -- which we don't have any more anywhere -- is situated about 12 feet from the water and it's ringing. I horrible actress answers it and she knows who's calling.

This very first scene, which lasts maybe 2 minutes gives you an idea how utterly bad this movie is going to be.

The acting across the board is dismal. The exposition is incredibly slow. The jump scares are dumb and embarrassingly insulting.

This movie is perhaps the worst film I have seen in 20 years. The one, and only, good thing I can say about this train wreck of a movie is that the scenery is nice.

That's it.

We are currently living in a time where it seems like every movie and tv show that we see is based off of, or is a sequel to, or is even just a remake of something else. It happens so often now that it seems like Hollywood has completely run out of ideas, but every once in a while, we are graced with a film that is not only an original idea but also a true work of art. Last night, I had the pleasure of watching a special premier of the new horror film Dead Whisper now playing in select theaters and streaming on Prime video. The film serves as the directorial debut for Conor Soucy and stars Samuel Dunning as Elliot Campbell, a lawyer living in Cape Cod who experiences strange occurrences when he visits a mysterious island.

The acting in this film was very good, but what really stood out to me was the brilliant way that this film was shot. Cinematographer Ben Grant worked pure magic behind the camera and the result was nothing short of artistic brilliance. Each shot was so captivating that I felt as if I was dragged into the story and was the main character. The angles and use of lighting was so masterfully utilized that it reminded me of a Hitchcock film at times.

A fun fact about this film is that it had a very low budget. It is very impressive that a movie can be this good with such a small number of resources and it is a true testament to the talented individuals who made it. I thoroughly enjoyed this movie and I strongly recommend checking this one out as soon as you can. I know I will be watching it many times.

Found this movie confusing from the beginning and thought the acting was terrible (especially the 'evil' laughing!). Don't waste your time on it, sadly I persevered to the end in the hope it would get better and make sense but was so disappointed and won't get that time back. I'm sure this was meant to be something clever with a deep meaning but honestly didn't get it at all. I read the concept of the movie and the desperation at a time of grief but couldn't connect with the storyline or the characters. This movie had scored high on other review sites...not sure what movie they watched but can't understand their ratings if it was the same one!
