15 Cameras

Aptly named 15 cameras as a third instalment to the previous two movies the first 13 cameras and the second 14 cameras. I find I'm at a loss for words as to why they gave him the name slumlord for this follow up movie instead of the name from the previous two movies. But anyways the plot was decent enough. But there's gaps in things like the hidden surveillance room he was in I could've sworn the first time he discovered it. It was on their side of the duplex and not the tenants side. I also don't get why they didn't cast the same guy that played the main character in 13 and 14 cameras either. But they did a decent job at casting a guy that looked similar enough that a lot of ppl might not question it. But I watch a lot of movies.

It's incredible to me that the '13 Cameras' series has somehow become one of the most consistently good horror trilogies. Three films and they're all great in their own way. '15 Cameras' changes the formula up a bit, but it does it in a really interesting and twisted way. This film was a blast.

I usually dislike horror movies where the majority of the film is set during the day, however '15 Cameras' proved that it can work. It also proved that you can have a dark and twisted film without someone having to die every 10 minutes. There is actually very little in the way of kills or even on-screen danger for the majority of the film, however there is still always an unease and darkness readily apparent.

I love the concept of a regular and good person being put in a chance position that corrupts them and turns them into something they weren't before. That is really interesting to me. This film was a good time. 8.5/10.

Moving into a new duplex, a couple living with her friend decide to rent out the lower level to a group of college students to help pay off the investment, but the more they stay there find the influence of the Slumlord previous owner who lived there effecting their lives and try to stop him from following in the footsteps.

This was a decent enough if overall flawed genre effort. Among its likable factors are the intriguing setup that actually tries to do something clever and creative in the series. Using the events of the previous entries as fodder for a true crime retrospective series and offering up the new couple moving into the house is a pretty solid idea to try something new. The revelation that they're in his old house and able to spy on those in the house through the same setup is a fine way to tie everything together as his growing obsession with the same thing he did by torturing those he spent time observing secretly through the cameras. As the tension here comes about through some chilling stalking and brutal encounters that feature some fine deaths in store as well, all make for a fun enough time here. However, there are some big issues here. The main factor against this one is the overall lack of interest in what's going on throughout here. The true crime obsession that she has makes for a genuinely dull time here simply relying on watching the reenactments of everything which isn't that interesting to see play out which is the same as the storyline for the boyfriend. His descent into the same obsessive behavior as him seems way too quickly to be realistic which is so instantaneous after discovering the existence of the setup in the house. Being the one who wasn't interested in the material to begin with, this feels even more troubling as he's thrust into this role so quickly it causes everyone around him to overlook the behavior so it's pretty dull until the finale on top of being stupid.

Rated Unrated/R: Graphic Violence, Graphic Language, and Brief Nudity.

I haven't seen the two movies before this one although I am aware of how they run.

This is a fairly solid piece of work. A house with history, a decent bad guy and a creepy premise. The direction is ok, the acting is good, the script is a little so so, there is plot plenty of tension and general creepiness.

Some of the plot points are a little weird. Such as the reaction when people are found in other people's houses, why does nobody call the police at any time? And the ending is a little strange.

Overall, I guess if you liked the previous two movies then this this will not disappoint at all.

I really had no expectations at all when I started watching this film. I knew about the first 2 movies and that it was on the lower budget side so there wasn't much to anticipate for.

However, after watching many mediocre films released for Halloween 2023, I have to say that this one pleasantly surprised me! It's no masterpiece but the acting, directing and plot were very decent. It also had some comedic/cringy moments that really worked for me (yeah, I'm talking about the husband). I'd like to see more from the team behind it (including the actors).

Overall a good watch for horror fans who watch all kinds of horror movies and not only the big budget ones.
