Dante's Hotel

A pretty stupid story but it has a decent foundation. You can easily see they had an idea then actually had to write a script around it. It reminded me a lot of the straight-to-rentals of the late 90's but that's not a bad thing. The deaths in the movie seem just written in to have a death but for the most part they're pretty cool. The antagonist has a pretty good look and then he talks and the dialogue is comical. The acting, cinematography, effects, sound design, and lighting are pretty good and it doesn't have that poor low budget look like a lot of movies shot on a low budget. I watch a lot of horror and most of it is pretty terrible so I actually do recommend this if you're looking for something different and kinda fun to watch.

Don't know why people have given this a poor rating. OK it's not a great horror film, but it is an easy watch and quite fun too.

The acting is good, and there are a few familiar faces from other productions people may have seen.

The story isn't bad either and makes a change from the usual 'teen' horrors and 'cabin in the woods' type of rubbish being churned out nowadays.

It's free to watch on Tubi too.

I wasn't expecting much from 'A Tubi original', but I was pleasantly surprised.

The pacing was tight, it was eminently watchable and the ending (if a bit predictable) didn't detract from the overall impact, as I had earlier feared it might.

Some of the FX were a bit dodgy, but others were fine. It's a bit like they had a time limit in which to film and couldn't miss deadlines, so couldn't go back.

Judd Nelson was the best actor, but some of the other acting was indifferent.

Overall, however, I didn't pause and go to Youtube once, as I often do if a film was dragging.

As I said I was pleasantly surprised and entertained for a low budget movie.

Worth a watch.

I was not familiar with this 2023 horror movie from Tubi and The Asylum. But with it being a horror movie that I hadn't already seen, of course I opted to give the movie a fair chance, as I happened to stumble upon it here in 2025.

Initially I have to say that the fact that it was a Tubi movie didn't exactly have me harboring the biggest of expectations. But I will say that writers Anthony C. Ferrante and William C. Martell actually put together a fair enough script and storyline. Sure, it wasn't exactly a revolutionary script in terms of horror movies go, but it was definitely entertaining enough for what it turned out to be.

Something that did impress me about "Dante's Hotel" was the cast ensemble. There were a lot of familiar faces on the cast list, with the likes of Moon Bloodgood, Ted Raimi, Judd Nelson, Ken Davitian and Emilio Rivera. It should be noted that the acting performances in the movie were fair.

The effects in the movie were actually good, and that certainly helped adding to the overall enjoyment of the movie.

All in all, "Dante's Hotel" was a surprise of a movie. And it is one that I would actually recommend, if you enjoy a good old fashioned supernatural horror movie.

My rating of director Anthony C. Ferrante's 2023 horror movie "Dante's Hotel" lands on a six out of ten stars.

Certainly not the greatest quality movie. There were a number of editing errors and line mistakes by actors. It could have almost moved to comedy/horror due to the actual concept of the movie.

It was a joy to see Judd Nelson on screen again and his quirky character was probably the most quality performance in the whole movie.

The character and setting development was a high point. Who doesn't love a good old haunted hotel kind of movie and the back story on the main characters kept me watching.

A really great story which could have been better done with a higher budget I'm sure. A good watch if there is nothing else on and you love the horror genre.
