7 Below

There seems to have been some confusion about the meaning of the title to this film, with viewers quite understandably (but wrongly) assuming that it somehow relates to a sub-zero temperature. My understanding is that the number refers to the seven people that we see at the beginning of the film—the six people in the van, and the cashier at the garage—and that the word 'below' alludes to the perpetual 'hell' in which they are trapped, which in this instance is an eternity in the presence of Ving Rhames and Val Kilmer as they give possibly the worst performances of their careers.

Not that Rhames and Kilmer are the only ones at fault in this unmitigated supernatural disaster: the majority of the blame must go to writer/director Kevin Carraway, who clearly had no idea how to develop his script beyond its trite 'we're all doomed to repeat our torment forever' initial concept, the result of which is an hour and a half of utter nonsense (filled with terrible characters and risible dialogue). If the driving force behind the whole film is unable to adequately explain what the hell is going on, then what chance do the cast have? And, consequently, what chance do the viewers have? Suffice to say that the film is incredibly dull, very frustrating and leaves many questions unanswered, the most obvious being 'How the hell did this garbage ever get made?'.

N.B. Two of the prop newspapers have grammatical errors in their headlines; they couldn't even get that right!

This is not great.

Pretty Simple.

The only reason people are watching this is because of Kilmer and Rhames.

If they needed money that badly we could have started a Go Fund Me page!

"Bellow Seven" (2012) is a Horror Thriller which has as the most famous actors in it Vig Rhames and Val Kilmer. The film deals with the history of a house, where in 1911 a family was murdered, and that 100 years later, after an accident, some people get stuck in it, along with a strange man who takes care of the house (Rhames).

Frankly speaking, this is one of the worst movies in every way I've ever seen: the story is very weak, and is extremely cliché, and has many holes in the narrative, which is inconsistent and without any interesting point.

The footage is bad, even renting a house with theoretically more than 100 years, it has everything brand-new, even the infrastructure of a new home, with nothing of dust or cobwebs, even in places that would be less care of.

Otherwise, besides a gas station and a forest (well cared for that matter), has no other locations. Special effects in just a few seconds in the final minutes (and even they were poorly made​​).

The actions and roles are some of the worst I've ever seen: the best of all, in a regular performance is Vig Rhames, and Val Kilmer (who I no longer consider a good actor), is terrible, with a brief paper and without a definite personality (from a rude guy to a mentally ill one from nothing). The others actors / characters are meaningless and horrible.

The music and sound effects are adequate, nothing more.

In total is a poor film, not even a class B one, a total loss of 1 and a half hour of my life... this is really a movie that should stay 7 feet below the ground. My score: 2.0 / 10.0.

This movie was terrible. From very bad acting to implausible situations, and yes I realize that the entire movie is an implausible situation. What I am talking about are the characters acting completely irrational in certain situations. People just don't do what the characters did, especially if you have ever seen a horror movie in your life.

I too found the sound to be terrible. Storm completely drowns out the dialog at points in this movie.

I love "B" movies and I will gladly waste time on a less that stellar movie, but I regret wasting my time on this one. To call this a "B" movie is to elevate it to a position it does not deserve.

IMHO, save your money, save your time and do not bother with this one. A real stinker.

This was by far the worst thriller I have ever seen. Lousy acting, cinematography and storyline. I wonder how much this film cost to produce and whether they actually expected it to be a successful picture at the box office. Complete let-down considering the actors cast and it is now obvious tho was purely a financial thing for all of them. Does anyone know of this director and any of their previous work? Would be interesting to do some sort of comparison. I'm just so astonished that this sort of crap gets given the time of day at the box office. Its far below D grade in terms of quality. I suggest we all go and watch The Green Mile or Inception and relax knowing that there is some sort of talent in this world. Its almost as if a group of guys sat around a table and thought "now how can we waste some money...?" My 10 year old sister makes better films on Viddy. Waste of time, I rate it 0/10.
